Another Rehearsal Dinner Question

I just read a post about a rehearsasl dinner question and I came up with one as well (not that we are even CLOSE to planning our rehearsal dinner lol). Obviously at the rehearsal dinner with be myself, FH, our parents and the bridal party. Now, I have a few members of my bridal party who have boyfriends/ girlfriends (they might even be engaged by the time our wedding comes in August) who are NOT in the bridal party. Do we invite the bridal parties significant others to the rehearsal dinner? Or is the dinner strictly for the bridal party and family?

you can invite anyone you want. We invited our bridal party and parents, but all of our bridal parties significant others are in the wedding party as well.

I guess it depends if you personally want them there, and if you can afford it.

It's up to you who you invite. We invited the bridal party with significant others. If they didn't have a significant other, they were invited alone.

You can invite whoever you want. We invited all of the BP with guests as well as all of our oot guests. We have close to 80 people!!!

Etiquette says bridal party's significant others should be invited. I am NOT inviting them though

yeah we were debating that too.. we may invite significant others who are out of towners.

I would say yes, sig others should be included.

We had a larger BP (7 on each side, not including DH or myself). Our RD ended up being 38 people. B/c most of our guests were OOT, it would have been impossible to expand the RD invite list, so we stuck to BP, parents (6 of them since DH's are divorced and both remarried), grandparents, godparents. It worked out perfectly.

You can invite anyone that you want to. We invited our BPs significant others to ours.

I would invite them. It would be to weird not too.
FH was in a bridal party a few years ago and the significant others were not invited. Some were married too!

I have a set budget which will include OOT guests, parents, bridal party. If I can afford it I will invite SO's and spouses. I hope I don't step on any toes!

I think it would be nice to invite the significant others... but if it is not in your budget I think it is completly fine not to invite them.

It's up to you two....I was in 2 BP's this summer and FH was invited to one of the RD and not the other...your choice. I'm probably going to invite boyfriends/spouses though.
