Bridesmaid's New Boyfriend?!

Bridesmaid's New Boyfriend?!

I am in a real pickle here girls, and I need your help! My fiance and I sent out our wedding invitations last week. One of my bridesmaids informed me (after she received the invitation addressed to her only because she was single at the time) that she had just started dating a guy she went to school with. So now my question is, are we obligated to invite this new guy as well? My fiance and I are paying for the wedding ourselves, and money is tight enough as it is! Also, we didn't write 'and guest' on any of our other invitations to friends that were single. What should we do? My wedding is next month, and they'll only be dating for about 2 months by the time the big day gets here. She hasn't asked me if she could bring him, and I'm not sure she will, but I want to be prepared in case she does! Please help! Thanks so much!

If it's one person... and she's in your BP... I think I'd extend her the courtesy and include him.

Re: Bridesmaid's New Boyfriend?!

I agree. If she wasn't in the BP I would say don't worry about it, but since she is I would extend the invitation.

We didn't invite anyone with a guest who wasn't in a serious relationship, engaged or married....except for our BP. Neither our best man nor one of our groomsmen are in relationships and we invited both of them with a +1...we thought it was only right.

Re: Bridesmaid's New Boyfriend?!

yea if it was anyone besides a bridesmaid I think if they are still dating closer to your wedding I would offer the invite.

Re: Bridesmaid's New Boyfriend?!

Once again I am the odd woman out, because my one of my BM just started dating this guy a month before I sent out my invites and she already knew not to even ask me because my answer would be no.

I did not in vite anyone with a guest if they were not engaged or in a serious relationship or would not know anyone....except for the Bridal party they all got invited with guests.

Re: Bridesmaid's New Boyfriend?!

I would say invite him b/c she is in your bridal party.

Re: Bridesmaid's New Boyfriend?!

If you just sent your invitations out last week, you are bound to get a few no's soon anyway.. I would just let her bring the guest and I'm sure it'll even out somewhere.

Re: Bridesmaid's New Boyfriend?!

what the other girls said... because she is a BM of yours I think it would be nice to just extend the offer to let her invite him, if she wants to (which she may not even want to). If it were anyone else (some random friend at the wedding) than I would say no.

Re: Bridesmaid's New Boyfriend?!

Actually, I think the fact that she IS IN the bridal party would make me not extend the invite out to him. I don't know about your day and how it's scheduled, but for mine the BP is together ALL DAY. If they have long serious relationships, they don't even see their significant other's until the reception at night, really. This isn't a date. I expect my girls to be dancing with me and not worried about their new blossoming relationship. That's just me.

Re: Bridesmaid's New Boyfriend?!

thats a hard one at first i was like yea shes in the bp def extend the invite..but its true shes in the bp and wont really be able to be with her date the majority of the night! id guess id extend it and leave it up to her what she wants to do but bc shes in ur bp and a close friend id say extend it

Re: Bridesmaid's New Boyfriend?!

For a BM i would definitely extend the invite to the new boyfriend...

Re: Bridesmaid's New Boyfriend?!

I'm going to have to agree with everyone on this one..you definetly have to include the bf because she is a bridesmaid
