    Random and totally not what you asked for, by my calligraphy lady wrote it like:

    Mr & Mrs. Smith

    Apartment 407

    3781 Eastern Hills Lane

    not that one is right or one is wrong but just fyi. I think I agree with option 3, however if your calligrapher is charging you PER line go with option #2.

    My calligrapher used a mix of options 1 and 3 (spelled out "Number" but put it on another line -- no extra charge though).

    Option 1 but don't spell out number...it's too long and unnesecary

    They way we did it was with Number abbreviated as N with a little o, like the way it is written on a bottle of Chanel No 5 http://www.youlookfab.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/08/chanel_no5.jpg

    It looks elegant, but you don't have to crowd the envelope or pay extra if your calligrapher goes by number of lines.

    I did what Baghdad Bride suggests!  Partly because it looks nice and partly because my hand was getting tired.
