Miss or Ms.?
Calligraphers are often asked by their customers how they should address their envelopes. Should they use titles? Where do they include the names of children? Can they write “and guest?” There are many different etiquette “rules” out there but really it is up to you how you wish to address your envelopes. You may choose to use titles (Mr., Mrs., Miss, etc) or decide on a more informal route and use abbreviations (St., Rd., ON, etc.).
If you do require some assistance, the Crane’s Online Wedding Blue Book is an excellent resource for Addressing Etiquette 101. But do keep in mind that at the end of the day it is your wedding, so address your invitations as you wish.
