When addressing an invitation to the mayor and his wife, you should use formal titles. For example, you would write "The Honorable [Full Name], Mayor of [City]" and "Mrs. [Last Name]" on the outer envelope. If you're using a more casual format, you could simply address it to "Mayor [Last Name] and Mrs. [Last Name]." Always ensure that the names and titles are spelled correctly to show respect.
The address should read (an example): Dr. John Doe and Mayor Jane Doe.
Addressing a Mayor and his wife: Mayor & Mrs. John Smith
To a current mayor, you would address the invitation to : His Honor Mayor George Atkins.
Reverend & Mrs.
The Honorable Nelson A. Rockefeller and Mrs. Rockefeller
Simply send the invitation to her, in her name. Bear in mind that if she is in a committed marriage this is not a polite thing to do. If her marriage is in some way compromised, just ring her with a personal invitation.
In writing, as 'Lord Mayor', perhaps surprisingly. The title Lady Mayoress is reserved only for the wife of a Lord Mayor. You should address a female Lord Mayor as "Madam Mayor" in conversation. It is considered impolite, certainly in public speaking, to address her just as 'mrs. Smith'.In writing an envelope, you use "Mrs. J.B. Smith, Lord Mayor of Portsmouth".
When addressing an invitation to an ambassador and his wife, you should use their official titles. For example, you would write "The Honorable [Full Name], Ambassador of [Country]" for the ambassador, and "Mrs. [Last Name]" for his wife. If the wife holds a title of her own, you may use that instead. Ensure to format the envelope and the invitation card properly, maintaining a formal tone throughout.
