That's fine because it is possessive.

Re: invite question..

No apostrophe - if you are inviting the Smiths, then its the Smiths, plural. NOT the Smith's. There is nothing that they are possessing when you send them an invite. you are referring to them as plural...HTH!

Re: invite question..

Maybe my question wasn't clear.

I am sending out invites for a party I am having at my house.

Inside the invite it says

Time: 3pm
Date: December 25th
Place: ?????

If you use The Smith's then you need to put Home afterwards.

Place: The Smith's Home @ yada yada

Or just make it simple and say "Our Home"

Re: invite question..

If it's casual, and close friends/family are invited, I would probably use first names. For a more formal event, I would use "The Lastnames" or "The Lastname's Home/Abode/House/Residence/Castle"

If you were saying The Smith's Christmas Party, then you'd use an apostrophe. Apostrophes show possession -- just adding "s" makes it plural.
