How to Pluralize Your Last Name for Wedding Stationery 💌

You’re getting ready to send out save-the-dates, invitations, or thank-you cards—but wait, how do you pluralize your last name correctly? 🤔

Here’s a quick guide:
✨ If your last name ends in s, x, z, ch, or sh, add -es (The Foxes, The Joneses).
✨ If it ends in any other letter, just add -s (The Taylors, The Millers).
❌ Never use an apostrophe unless it’s possessive!
✨ Hyphenated last names? Pluralize both or just the last part, depending on your style.

Swipe through the post for more examples, and save this guide for when you need it!

Hi everyone! It's Shannie here, the other half of Blush & Bordeaux Events!
Now it's my turn to introduce myself and share a bit more about me:

✨I moved to Edmonton from the Philippines in 2010, and I’ve been here for half my life! I’m bilingual, and yes, the Filipino singing stereotype? That’s me! 🎤
✨I’m a huge Harry Potter fan (proud Hufflepuff with 2 HP tattoos!) ⚡️
✨I absolutely love traveling and exploring new places, especially trying out local cuisines! I’m such a foodie that my husband even has an album called "Shannie taking pictures of food." 😂
✨Next stop: the Philippines in February 2025! I haven’t been home since 2018, and I can’t wait to show you all snippets of my beautiful country. Need tips? I’ve got you! 🇵🇭
✨Unlike Mandy, I’m all about tea! London Fogs and Matcha lattes are my go-to. ☕
✨My dog, Gunner, is my baby. He’s a rescue, loves cheeseburgers and pepperoni, and sighs like he has the weight of the world on his paws. 🐾
✨As a Virgo, I’m happiest in nature! My husband and I love backcountry camping, especially during the summer. His Xterra is rigged for us to explore the most remote mountain spots. 🏞️

What’s your favorite travel destination? Any foodie spots I should add to my list? 🍽️✈️
