Unless some are children - I would send them each their own invite.

For my aunt and her two girls, we did my aunt's name on the first line and the two daughter's names underneath

Re: invitations
I would say put Jane & Mary Smith but since there are 4 then I would just write the Smith Ladies

Everyone gets their own invite in my opinion. Doesn't matter if they are all in the same household. If they are over 16, own invite.

6 invites to the same house is overkill lol. i would if it was 2 people, but 6? mehhh i just put "smith family" and they will text the mother to let her know its just the girls

I take it back I just go to one that 4 at one address. I think I am going to go with the suggestions that was give and write the smith ladies ... or I may jus to all names and lower the font size   I will see how it looks

I agree.
Save a freakin tree. 6 invites to one house is just wasteful.

Yup! Those square envelopes are extra postage.
I have no idea why.
Maybe because they don't fit through the machine and have to be hand cancelled at the post office?
