Hell, if we do a toss at all it will be something unisex, and only for the photo op - I just don't care enough, and I don't want to single out the single people. No bridal party. No parents dances. Screw that - I like to be the center of attention, dammit! Hahaha.<br/><br/>I found this really cute project on Martha's website where you print the address on a thin long sheet that wraps from the front of the envelope to the back, which looks mega cute. We will probably be doing that; it will help hold our pocketfolds together (I'm not buying a separate envelope, screw that). I might not even use Mr. and Mrs. at all - too formal, lol. I'm basically going to address the label as I would a Christmas card. Nothing cutesy, but nothing fancy either. My family won't even notice! His? They're pretty laid back people, so I doubt they'd care either. <br/><br/>And the way I look at it, whether I call you Ms. Stephanie Farmer, Mrs. Stephanie Farmer, Missus Stephanie Farmer, or Hey You Who Just Got Married... you'll get free food and booze and a fun time, so who are you to complain about how I address you on a piece of paper??? ;)<br/><br/>I hear you though on all this etiquette stuff. Every time I see a post on a blog about etiquette, I scroll on by. I'm simply not interested. Well, you know me – almost all the traditions have gone out the window.
