Plural Proper Noun
I am ordering a personalized Advent Calendar for my son and his wife. Their last name is Arias. Do I order their name as: The Arias'? The Ariases? The Arias's?
Thank you

Ariases (as Joneses)
So far, I've confirmed this with Chicago 16th, AP 44th, and Hart's Rules (UK).

Agreed.
It is John and Jane Arias and the Arias family, but the Ariases when used collectively.
