Are you inviting significant others

Are you inviting significant others

to the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner?

I am asking because my friend has a wedding tomorrow night. She is on LI and the wedding is in CT. She was married in July. They are staying with fh and i tonight...

BUT she called me and asked if it would be ok if her DH stayed with us while she was at rehearsal cause he wasnt invited...

all the bridesmaids are out of staters and many have boyfriends/fiances/husbands and NONE were invited.

She was mad, and I also thought it was kind of odd...

What are you girls doing?

I'm inviting all significant others to the rehearsal dinner (especially if they are OOTers!). I really thought that was protocol....

We're inviting significant others. And OOT SO's should absolutely be invited!!! I could understand her being upset, her DH should've been invited!!

NOPE! Not even married ones...Not inviting OOT guests either!

How much more money do I seriously need to shell out?????????

Strictly the Bridal Party and our Parents! I'm not even allowing the parents of the FG and RB!

Yes, I will also invite significant others, (regardless of whether OOT or not) but just regular OOT's - no!

I was a bm, and she didn't invite our significant others because her mil was paying and she said no.

If you are inviting people from OOT what is the SO going to to while their SO is at the dinner? Sit in the hotel room? I think the SO's should be invited. If you invite them with their SO then they should be invited to the dinner.

ETA: This happened to me. It was in California and DH was invited to some outing before the wedding, but the wives and SO's weren't. We didn't know each other and didn't know each other existed. I knew no one in California. So I had to find something to do the whole day to busy myself w/o a car at the hotel.

I knew it didnt sound right...her poor DH who I have met all of maybe 5 times has to hang out with me....all by my lonesome cause he wasnt invited , they live out of state, and my fh wont be home until late tonight----- What we will talk about?
I dont think it was right that they werent invited, IMO

Put him in front of a TV with control of the remote...THIS USUALLY works for 90% of men!
