Where Does The Apostrophe Go?

[bednobs]

"i would like to invite you and your husbands"
referring to two girls with 1 husband each

[naomi24]

No apostrophe.

[Flonska]

Husbands is not possessive - thus no apostrophe required in this instance.

[dannyk13]

No apostrophe, husbands in this case is plural.

[Old_Geezer]

I'd rewrite the sentence. Sounds to me that you are inviting someone who has committed bigamy.

[naomi24]

Not if she's addressing the invitation "Dear name and name".

[jno]

it's fine the way you've written it.

[maggiebee]

No apostrophe needed.

[Debmac]

You don't need an apostrophe. Husbands is plural and you don't need to show possession. Neither are there any missing letters.

[jno]

the only sign of possession will be wedding rings.

[sapelesam]

Are you only sending one invitation to two couples, do all four people live together?

[bednobs]

1 invite, 2 couples

[sapelesam]

Thanks Bednobs, that explains it.

[alavahalf]

Do they all live together .. or do they read each others mail ?

[bednobs]

neither - it's an email adressed to 2 people

Dear Ladies,

"I would be delighted to invite you both, together with your respective husbands, to my annual cheese and wine extravaganza."

No apostrophe needed unless denoting possession or missing letters.

[Flonska]

Why not just insert the word "both" between invite and you?

[bednobs]

I am not writing the email, just criticizing someone else's email!

[Flonska]

Thanks for the clarification.

Then the text in your OP was correct.
