I think Gumbo's problem is he doesn't KNOW if one of them have taken the other's name or not. The above are good suggestions if they each kept their name, but what if one of them DID change? Wouldn't it be "rude" to use her maiden name?
Exactly. Now, on the plus side, these are not uppity nor sensitive people. So, I don't think it'll be a huge stink if I mess it up. But, I do want to get it right. So, I'll see what my uncle or my cousin's sister (obviously, also my cousin) say.
And I'm a little embarrassed to say I don't actually know my cousin's partner's last name. She's been part of the family for years, but has just been "Sue" to us. D'OHH!

not likely there would be any name changes. use their given names.
Weird assumption. About half the same sex couples I know had one or both changes names when married.not likely there would be any name changes. use their given names.
It really helps when folks read the entire thread...not likely there would be any name changes. use their given names.
