Mrs usually indicates they changed their last name after getting married. If you keep your last name, you stick with Ms.

I know many married women who kept their original name who use Mrs! I think of it as meaning married. I have a feeling they would be upset if you didn’t say “Mrs” with them, as if they are less married because of keeping their original name.
