Como Rotular Sobres

Algunas recomendaciones:
1) Si envías la invitación a una casa donde viven dos amigos(as) que son solteros(as), se le deberá
entregar a cada uno(a) su propia invitación.
2) En caso de que se invite a una mujer divorciada o separada es mejor escribir su nombre con
apellido de soltera.
3) Cuando una mujer es viuda puede escribirse su nombre de soltera y agregar el título “Vda. de…”
Sra. Cristina Márquez Vda. de López
4) Si se invita a una amiga que todavía no esté casada pero va a llevar a su novio o acompañante se
escribe:
Srta. Mariana Muñoz y Acompañante
5) Si entre los invitados hay algún militar, es necesario mencionar su título y grado:
General Luís García Rojas y Sra.
6) Algunas veces cuando la boda es muy formal (etiqueta, etiqueta rigurosa) y de noche se puede
anteponer al nombre el titulo Don o Doña, esta última regla puede ser usada tanto para mujeres
solteras como casadas.
Sr. Don Antonio Sánchez y Sra.
Srta. Doña Lucia Hernández
