Honestly, in that situation I would call the bride and ask if there was a mistake on my RSVP card. And then, if my husband was not invited I would say flat out I wasn't coming.
When I was engaged, a friend of mine was getting married and when she sent me an invite it said my name "and guest." I thought that was kinda rude considering she had met my then-fiance and we had been out to dinner a few times together.

My old roommate addressed my invitation to her wedding not only to me, but to a guy I was good friends with and had a crush on. For real, she put his name on the invitation. And the place card at the rehearsal dinner, in spite of the fact that he was out of town and couldn't come to either... (we had rsvp'd in plenty of time for her to change it.) I brought another guy. He didn't like being called by the wrong name all night.

I actually think that might be correct, etiquette-wise. It's sort of awkward to put Miss Mary Smith & Mr. John Jones on an invite.

Now, that would be for the outer envelope, right?

Yes, but inner envelope would say "Mary & John".
I also agree with KSigkid on the inviting people you know can't come. I had some friends who said they could not come, so I told them I wouldn't send them an invite. However, my family members I sent invites to anyway b/c they would have been offended if I didn't. They didn't see it as fishing for gifts - it all depends on your situation.

No, really? I had absolutely no idea! OMG I am the least smrtest person EVER!1!
The original assertion was about the inner envelope, but GP quoted information from Post about the outer.
