Reader’s question: How should you address a married couple in a letter?
Answer: I think your choice depends on the formality you want and your choices are:
Dear John and Ann Jones (My preference unless you think it is too informal)
Dear Mr and Mrs Jones (or Ms if that is her preference)
Dear Mr John Jones and Mrs Ann Jones (or Ms if that is her preference)
