quick Spanish translation help - "Welcome!"

[fan_of_small_world]

I'm doing place cards for a Mexican-themed party, and I wanted to put "Welcome!" in Spanish above each guest's name. Are there different forms of bienvenido for a single female, single male, or a couple?

Also, I've seen sentences in Spanish using two exclamation points (the first being "upside down at the beginning). Would that be the appropriate punctuation?

Thank you for any help you can give me!

Bienvenido would be for males, bienvenida is for females, and for couples, it would be bienvenidos. You can do the exclamation point thing, too. The upside down one goes before the word and the regular one goes after.

Pop Daddy - I need a good laugh right now - this event is driving me crazy. Can't wait until it's over.
