If a guest is a child, feel free to use "Miss." If she's an unmarried adult, go with "Miss" or "Ms." (Note that "Ms." is often preferred for women 18 and up). If she's married and you know her chosen title, write that. If you're unsure, "Ms." is a safe and appropriate choice.Feb 8, 2019
What does Ms mean for female?
Married women are often referred to as Ms. in a business setting where marital status isn't known or seen as pertinent, but it's most often used to describe young women who aren't married since Mrs. refers to married women and Miss relies heavily on age.
Does Ms mean you are divorced?
The contraction "Ms." is short for "Mistress." When referring to a woman whose marital status is unknown, it is nearly always safe to use "Ms." It is also nearly always safe to use "Ms." if the woman has been divorced or widowed and it is unknown whether she wants to remain a "Mrs." or revert to "Miss."
