My husband and I are having a renewal of vows ceremony in October. But I have a problem that I need answers for. We bought our invitations on clearance at a Wal-Mart store and are planning on doing them ourselves on our printer. However, there is only one envelope per invitation. We also need to know about addressing those envelopes. We are inviting relatives that are not married but live together. The man has children from a previous marriage and then he lives with my niece and they have 2 children. How do we address the envelope since there is only one envelope? Thank You!!

Re: [catsue73] addressing invitations for vow renewal

Dear Catsue,
You don't have to worry too much about these. It isn't a wedding, so the traditional invitation 'rules' don't apply. This is basically an anniversary party in which you restate your vows to each other.
You could list the relatives in alphabetical order, vertically on the envelope. The children could be invited with a note inside of the invitation. Or, you could simply write the Smith family on the envelope.
