Stupid question regarding monograms....

If I am ordering monogramed stationary for a married coupe, the order is....

Man First Initial, Surname Initial, Wife's First Initial?

So a couple by the name of John and Mary Smith would be...JSM?

Re: Stupid question regarding monograms....

Hmm...I just looked at our monograms that I ordered for thank you notes for the e party. My initial is first. And after looking at some of ChrissynRicky's in her liw album..I see a lot of ladies first...now I'm second guessing my monograms!Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I think if its for a wedding, the woman's name would go first. The bride ALWAYS goes first Chat Icon

I'm glad I asked...I googled it and found this...

Marriage Monogram
The proper way to create a personalized monogram for a married couple is as follows:

Wife's First Name Initial
Last Name Initial (larger initial in the middle)
Husband's First Name Initial
