Gamom3 Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 I am sending out graduation invitations and I am not sure how to address one to my ds's girlfriend and her family. Here is a little bit more confusion. Her mom is living with her boyfriend..which we know as well..we would not invite, but since she is living there how do we address that as well?

unsinkable Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 The best I can come up with is: "The Smith Family" If mom's boyfriend isn't named Smith, he ain't on the invite! ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carol in Cal. Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 One to "Miss Girlfriend". The other to "Mrs. Girlfriend's Mom and guest" or "Mrs. Girlfriend's Mom and Mr. Girlfriend's Mom's Boyfriend." Of the two, the second is more inviting. The first is more 'We don't really want to acknowlege your relationship,' and might anger some people. So the second is preferable unless you feel the need to make a disapproving point. And I would argue that the place to make a disapproving point is not in the context of inviting someone to something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
