I think it will have to wait till we win the lottery. But, who knows? Lets
just say that there are no plans within the foreseeable future to travel
any farther than to see my grandson...thats a 20 minute trip.
When I talk with Jalynne about winning the lottery its understood that my
first stop is going to be WA to pick her up. Shes going to do the driving.

You guys are making me feel so wanted. Thank you!

Hi All,

Awhile back, I posted about the wedding and mentioned about our wedding
invitations where gonna cost an arm and a leg. Alot of you gave me the
inspiration to go forth and attempt to make my own. Well, I posted the
final result on webshots for anyone who cares to see how they turned
out.
It is in our wedding folder.

PS: Thanks for the "push" to do them. They cost us $50.00 to make 120
and
(I can make another 80 if I wanted to...)

so, does it say what to do when:

in writing to a couple who are both doctors AND when the wife has kept
her maiden name?

Dr. Marissa Vignali
and Dr. Fernando Vila

but the husband does have a professional title, so he should go first.
Unless that is modified by the fact that I do too? Wonder if they
contemplated this possibility. To tell you the truth it annoyed me when
some of the birthday presents for Sofia were addressed to Mr. and Mrs.
Fernando Vila by members of my own family that should know better!

To quote from the Amy Vanderbilt Complete Book of Etiquette:

"In writing to a couple who are both doctors, you address the envelope
The Doctors White or Doctor (Dr.) Sally White and Doctor (Dr.) Arthur
White. Doctors (Drs.) Sally and Arthur white is also correct."

"When addressing an even lope to a couple when the wife has keep her
maiden name, write Ms. Sally Richter and Mr. Arthur White on the same
line. If a couple's combined names are too long to fit on one line,
address the envelope this way:
Ms. Sally Richter
and Mr. Arthur White
(Note: The "and", which is slightly indented and written out, indicates
that Ms. Richter and Mr. White are married.) The only exception to this
practice is when only the husband has a profession title; then his name
comes first. For example, Reverend Arthur White and Ms. Sally Richter.
If Sally Richter only uses her maiden name professionally (Ms. Sally
Richter), you would, of course, address a social envelope to Mr. and
Mrs. Arthur White."

Doesn't your family know Sofia's name? Remember when I mentioned
that not all having the same name was a PITA? When you have so
many special needs expect folks to only put so much effort into
the whole thing. Growing up with my first name made me learn
a long time ago you can only expect so much of folks when it
comes to names. Maybe family name announcement cards would
help, especially the older folks?

It doesn't say, but his professional title seems to go first only when
she doesn't have one. So I'd say the way you did it is correct.

oh, they do know, and they have received cards, they are just trying to
do it the way they prefer to do it, not the way we chose! as long as the
PO delivers the presents... )

I still don't think it is so much of a PITA that it would make me give
in and do it differently. You must know by now how stubborn and
opinionated I am, right? You've been reading me long enough.. )
