What address would you use?

You can use anyone's return address that is willing to keep track of the RSVP's. Traditionally, it is the bride's family's resposibility.
Good luck!

The return address on the invitations, the address to which people RSVP, and the address to which gifts will be shipped before the wedding should all be the SAME.
Traditionally, yes, this was the bride's parents' address, but if your situation is different then pick another address (the bride's apartment, etc).

We used out address because we paid for the wedding, we kept track of the guest list, and we wanted to gifts to be sent to our house. The return address is traditionally that of who is hosting the wedding.
If your invite talks about
Hank & Joyce Summers
invite you to the wedding
of their Daughter Buffy
Then the return address should be Hank & Joyce Summers
If it's:
You are cordially invited
to attend the wedding of
Miss Piper Haliwell
to
Mr. Leo Wyatt
Then the couple is hosting the wedding and the return address should be the couple's.
The address is also where wedding gifts are traditionally sent - so even if your dad is hosting the wedding, but he lives 3000 miles away from you, you would have to take that into consideration.

Traditionally the brides parents host the wedding --- I bought a house w/ my finance and stay there most of the time -- but I still used my mom's address for the return address and address for response cards. I think its classier that way.

If everyone is in the same city and the parents are heavily involved in the planning and finances, yes.
If not, list the bride's current address.

well if the bride lives with her parents they should go to her parents house however if the bride lives at a different address it should go to where she is. i'm having my response cards sent to my house so that i can keep track of them myself rather than going to my moms house and seeing whats there. hope this helped!

while my parents paid for the majority of our wedding, we listed my address on the invites because we knew that people who couldn't come would (and they did!) send gifts to the address that was provided. my parents don't live nearby, so it was MUCH easier to have the packages come to us directly (plus, it made coming home from work a blast cause there were gifts waiting there!).

We put our own address on the invitations. This way, people responded to us, (it was our wedding right?) and we knew who was coming and how to plan.

If your parents are willing to keep track of all the guests and who will be coming and not, then yes. That's how I did it because my mom took care of all of that for me. If you will be tracking who's coming and all of that then make it your address.

We kept track of all of our wedding responses therefore making it our address. It depends on who is keeping track of the responses.
