Addressing christening invitations - Is it as formal as a wedding?

I'm not sure whats appropriate here. We're having the party at a catering hall, so its a little bit fancier than a backyard party. Should I do:

Mr. & Mrs. Smith and Family
The Smith Family

Ms. Jane Smith or Jane Smith

Sorry this is so stupid but I'm just checking what you think.

Same here-though I would have done labels if I had any at the time.

I did The Smith Family, if it was a family, and Mr. and Mrs. John Smith, if it were a married couple.

Either way, I don't think anyone pays attention to what their envelope says....so do what is easier!
