How to Address an Envelope
Properly addressing an envelope is key to ensuring your mail arrives at its destination in style. Whether you're sending wedding invitations, thank you cards, or holiday greetings, following the correct format will give your mail a polished, professional look.
- Recipient's Name: Begin by writing the full name of the recipient.
- Street Address: Write the house or building number, followed by the street name and, if applicable, apartment or suite number.
- City, State, and Zip Code: On the next line, list the city, followed by the state abbreviation and the zip code.
- Return Address: Place your own name and address in the top left corner, or for a touch of elegance, on the back flap of the envelope.
Example of a Properly Addressed Envelope:
Front of the Envelope:
Mr. and Mrs. Jonathan Davis
1234 Oak Street, Apt. 2B
San Francisco, CA 94122
Return Address (Top Left or Back Flap):
