Do you put your name on wedding envelope?
You should include both people’s names in the couple. You can go the traditional route and include titles and full names, but since this is a save the date rather than a formal invitation, it’s also perfectly acceptable to leave off the titles—again, it’s up to you. Traditionally, the man is listed first.

Does the bride or groom’s name go first on Save the dates?

When addressing an envelope to a married couple whose name goes first?
