Funny Christmas cards for the couple you know

Funny cards for a couple do best when the joke belongs to the pair, not to one of them. The bickering that never ends, their joint failure at charades, how they always host and still sound surprised. Keep it fond and balanced.

3 things to write inside

Swap in their name. Change anything that doesn’t sound like you.

  1. funny [first name], thank you both for being the one couple I know who argue politely. Merry Christmas.
  2. funny [first name], I hope Christmas goes smoothly, and that neither of you has to say "I told you so" in front of the relatives. Much.
  3. funny Dear [first name], this card is addressed to both of you, because I couldn't decide who to be nicer to. You're equal. Merry Christmas.

Questions people ask

What do you write in a Christmas card for a couple?

Write to both of them, and mention something you've seen them do as a pair. A dinner they hosted, a trip, the way they cope with a crowd. Thank them for something specific, then wish them a good Christmas together. Keep it warm and keep it short.

Should I send a Christmas card to a couple together or one each?

One card is usually right, unless you're closer to one of them. Address it to both and write as if you're speaking to the pair. If you want to say something private to one, send that one separately and keep it short.

Can I send a funny Christmas card to friends who are a couple?

Yes, if the joke is kind to both and doesn't pick a side. Poke at the shared things: the satnav arguments, the dinner party timings, who sleeps in on Boxing Day. Avoid anything that sounds like a dig at their relationship.
