If you are more personally acquainted, "Dear Mary and John,"
Never separate the man's first and last names - in other words, do not write the couple as "John and Mary Jones," only as "Mary and John Jones."

∙ 12y agoTo address them formally, [for example, if they were both male] you could write "Dear Mr. T and R Smith"
Additional Info:
A somewhat antiquated tradition which is still in use (particularly by attorneys) is this:
For two men:
Dear Messrs. Smith
Dear Messrs. Smith and Jones
For two women:
Dear Mesdames Smith
Dear Mesdames Smith and Jones

If the couple is John and Fred Smith, then address it to "Messrs. John and Fred Smith." It does not matter which name (John or Fred) comes first.
If the couple is Mary and Emily Jones, then address it to "Mesdames Mary and Emily Jones." Again, you can put first whichever name you wish.
If the couple does not share the same last name (many opposite-sex couples do not either), then you can address it "Messrs. John Smith and Fred Jones" or "Mesdames Mary Smith and Emily Jones." Again the order of the names is up to you.

Mesdames Jones
Mesdames Lucy and Sally Jones
