[Recipient Name 1] and [Recipient Name 2]
[Street Address]
[City, State, ZIP Code]
The recipient, which includes the first and last name of each individual, should be written on the primary line. Use "Mr." or "Ms." before the individual's last name if you are not sure of their preferred titles.
For example:
Mr. John Doe and Ms. Jane Smith
123 Main Street
San Francisco, CA 94105
If both individuals have the same last name, you can write:
Mr. and Mrs. John Smith
123 Main Street
San Francisco, CA 94105
In this case, "Mr." and "Mrs." indicate a married couple with the shared surname "Smith."
If the couple has a specific family name they use, such as "the Smiths" or "the Joneses," you can write:
The Smiths
123 Main Street
San Francisco, CA 94105
Be mindful that some couples prefer to use gender-neutral titles like "Mx." or "Dr." If unsure, it is always safe to address the couple by their individual names (e.g., Mr. John Doe and Ms. Jane Smith) to avoid any potential mistakes or offense.
