How do I address a Christmas card to a good friend thats married?
I have met her husband but not friends with him. Do I put Mr and Mrs or just her name?
Please advise!

Mr. and Mrs. Doesn't matter that you don't know him personally.

Mr & Mrs, it would be rude to exclude her hubby.
12-06-2023 10:07 AM
I would have no problem with either choice.

I think for a Christmas card, especially since you have met him even if only once, it is nice to address it as Mr. and Mrs. as I'm sure others will say
I have friends I've never met the husband and we talk, text send birthday cards etc. but any Christmas or large holiday card I address to both or even if just to her if single and a child or young adult if living with one and she talks about throughout the year.
and yes, as @Goldengate8361,
said the less formal first names and last are nice too when friends and same ages especially.

Just first names followed by their last name. Jane and jack doe.

A lot of times I'll just put example: Smith Family
This way it also includes children they might have.

You can do it a couple of ways really. I would put her first and last name and then add & family. Or you can just put Mr. & Mrs. since it is a Christmas card.

I always use Mr and Mrs. John Smith & Family.

I generally write: The Smith Family so everyone is covered even if they no longer live in the home or we may not have met. Especially think this is thoughtful in the case of a bereavement.
