5 tips on Addressing Invitation Envelopes

1. Spell out all directional terms: Northeast, Southwest etc.

2. Spell out the identifiers: Avenue, Boulevard, Street, Road and Post Office.

3. Spell out street or apartment numbers up through 19; One, Two etc.

4. Spell out the State name, Oregon, New York etc.

5. Do not use any symbols, again spell it out - &-and, #-Number


Never use labels, even clear ones, unless this is a work related invitation list. It is perfectly acceptable to do the envelopes through a good printer, to print the guests names and addresses and the return address.
