     Sending invites to happily married/non-living together  

I may have a unique situation, but this being the age that it is, it could become more common...

I wonder what the etiquette is for sending an invitation (or invitations) to a couple who is married but not living together most of the time.

Do I send one invitation to the guest I know best and include the name of the spouse or do I send two invitations: one to each main address?

Thank you.

I don't believe it is any of my business as to why, as long as they are happily married and I feel that it is appropriate to invite both.

There are various reasons, as I know more than one couple in this situation. For the record, work obligations keep a few couples from residing in the same state, coupled with custody obligations of children from a previous marriage. Also, one couple is in the process of relocating with the husband moving ahead of the family; the wife and children keeping the previous home until it's sale (the situation is indefinite since they are having trouble selling). The couples see each other monthly or bi-monthly for varying periods of time at the primary residence of one or the other. It is not my position to judge the situation, I am just wanting to know how to send the invitation (or invitations).

Do I send one invitation including the name of both people to the primary residence of the guest I am most familiar with or do I send one invitation to each individual at their own residences?

Thank you.
