Quick Answer
Address the outer envelope formally with full names and titles, and the inner envelope more casually with just first names or titles and last names. Double envelopes add a layer of elegance and protect your invitation suite.
Why Use Double Envelopes?
Double envelopes are a classic choice for formal weddings, especially black-tie or traditional events. The outer envelope takes the brunt of postal handling, keeping the inner envelope and invitation pristine. The inner envelope also allows you to indicate exactly who is invited without writing on the outer envelope.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
One frequent error is addressing the inner envelope too formally—it should be less formal than the outer. Another is forgetting to include the return address on the outer envelope. Also, avoid using abbreviations on the outer envelope (write out "Street" and "Avenue").
Step-by-Step Guide to Addressing Double Envelopes
- Step 1: Address the Outer Envelope: Write the guest's full name and address on the outer envelope. Use formal titles (Mr. and Mrs., Dr. and Mrs.) and spell out street names, city, and state. Include your return address on the back flap. Common mistake: using abbreviations like 'St.' instead of 'Street'—always write them out for formal events.
- Step 2: Address the Inner Envelope: On the inner envelope, write only the guests' names—no address. For married couples, use 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith' or just first names if you are close. For single guests with a plus-one, write 'Ms. Johnson and Guest'. Common mistake: addressing the inner envelope too formally—remember it should be more casual than the outer.
- Step 3: Assemble and Insert: Place the inner envelope face up with the invitation suite inside (no hand-writing showing). Insert it into the outer envelope so the inner envelope's names face the back flap when removed. Checkpoint: ensure the inner envelope is not sealed—only the outer envelope gets sealed and stamped.
Product Recommendation
- Double Envelopes: Double Envelopes are only available for the Lily & Roe Co. Signature Series Invitation Collection. When you purchase double envelopes you will receive both an inner and outer envelope for your wedding invitation cards. This ensures your invitation suite matches the formality of a black-tie or traditional wedding, with coordinated envelopes that arrive together.
