Invitation for couple who doesn't live together

Proper etiquette would say you send to send them both one separately. Just like adult children in families.

I sent couples invitations that I invited to one address. Depending on whose address we have. One of my bridesmaids fiance is invited and we sent it to her.

I think it would be fine to just send it to one of them, unless you would really like to send one to both. My fiancé and I don’t live together and we’ve received wedding invitations as a couple to his address since he was closest to the couple and I wasn’t offended by that at all. Whoever probably wouldn’t think anything of it either way.

That's what I thought, but would someone interpret that as me ignoring their relationship?

No, a couple is one social unit, and gets one invite. A family with adult children has multiple social units, since the "children" would be their own unit.

Honestly, I'd send it to whichever person you think is more responsible and likely to RSVP in a timely manner.

Great point! I think I'll go with this. Thanks!

Before we lived together, I received all our wedding invitations unless they were closer to my FH. I am in charge of rsvps. He would lose them and forget until the week of, lol.

View Quoted Comment I agree with this.

My FH and I don't live together and typically only one of us has gotten the actual invitation that has both of our names. It has never offended me or him on who is sent the invitation.

We addressed the invitations to one address but with both names. Mostly because we are closer with the one person...and if they were to split up we would want that person there.

I'd send one invitation to the home of the one who is their "social calendar keeper". Which one tends to be more on top of coordinating plans?

As long as it's clear that the invitation is for both parts of the couple, I think you're ok sending it to only one address.

As we were getting our list together we just asked the one our list who they would want the save the date and invitation sent to. It was an instantaneous reply of sending it to one person. The girlfriend isn't the most organized and knows it so she didn't want any part of having to not lose the invitation/send stuff back. I would just send over a quick text and ask.

I would send one to one person, addressing it to both of them. Before FH and I moved in together, he or I would get invites with both names on it, no biggie.
