Wedding Invitations

The term, “Informals” is actually an misnomer in that they are a
“formal” note – so much so that to keep it a “formal” note, only the
bride’s name is to be printed on the front (i.e.: Mrs. Stephen Sampson)
if the informal reads, “Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Sampson it makes it more
of an informal note.

The thinking here is that even though the note is
coming from both individuals, it is only being written by one person.
The thought continues that if the groom will be writing some of his own
thank you notes, that he should have is one stationery with just his
name on it. If you don’t mind coming across more casual, both names can
be included. Again, first names (i.e.: Stephen and Karen Sampson)
rather than “Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Sampson, makes it ultra informal.
So…I guess it really depends on how you want to come across and how
important is it to you to be proper and formal.
