s/o shower gifts...
Who do you address the cards to when you go to a shower, be it wedding or baby?
For a wedding shower gift, I always will write both the bride's and the groom's names.
For a baby shower, I seem to write the mom's name... though I remember a lot of people writing "BabyBaby" at my shower, so I really don't know which way to go here.
Re: s/o shower gifts...
For a wedding shower: Bride only
For a wedding gift: Bride and Groom or Mr. and Mrs. HisLast (if I know she's changing her name)
For a baby gift: Baby's name (if I know it) or Baby Lastname
Stand up for something you believe in.
I don't go to a lot of baby showers, but I think last time I wrote mom and baby's name on it.
If it were a couples' shower I'd probably write all three names.
Congrats to both my TTC buddies, Amberley18 and sb2006 on their beautiful babies!
This
Wedding Showers: Just ladies- Bride's name/"For The Bride-to-Be; Co-ed- "The Soon to-be Mr. & Mrs."/ both first names
Weddings: Mr. & Mrs. NewLastName/"For The Newlyweds"
Baby Shower: Baby Lastname or whatever mom and dad have been calling the baby (first name if already chosen or nickname ie BabyBaby)
ETA: sometimes I write nothing since being at a shower or wedding to me makes who the envelope is for rather implicit.
This as well.
ditto this.
I don't address cards to anyone, I just sign my/our name(s).
I guess I'm a lazy card writer!
Ditto. I keep the outside of the envelope blank and just write "Congrats ! Love, ____" on the inside.
