How did you word your names on return labels pre/post wedding?

Help! I'm trying to take advantage of VistaPrint's sale and want to get return address labels to use for mailing out invites, rsvp return envelopes, and also to put on our thank you cards we're sending out (bulk is better/cheaper). How should I have our names printed on them since I plan to use them...

Help! I'm trying to take advantage of VistaPrint's sale and want to get return address labels to use for mailing out invites, rsvp return envelopes, and also to put on our thank you cards we're sending out (bulk is better/cheaper). How should I have our names printed on them since I plan to use them before I take his last name AND afterwards? Ugh, these are questions I didn't think I needed to spend energy on and I feel like I'm missing an easy solution here (turkey/bridal brain). TIA!

    We used our first names also, with one of black and white engagement pictures. We used Vistaprint also. Was a great touch.

    We did just our first names on the return address on the invite as it would only hold three lines. I ordered clear return address labels with our married name on them before the wedding so they would be here as I wanted thank you's to go out ASAP.

    For my invite return I did my last name/his last name. For my shower thank yous I just did the address, I figure we could use these for anything down the road. For After wedding Thank you since I am taking his name I did Brooke & Troy Lastname

    We just got a stamp that had FH last name. I'm taking his name after so it is just easier
