You do not have to invite all the parents. Invite who you are close to. We are inviting the parents of only a few members of our bridal party because we have known them for years.

we are inviting pretty much all of our good friends parents but they are people we are close with. I would invite just the ones that you are close with.

We are inviting the parents of my two best friends. The parents of most of the other BP members are family anyway so they'll be invitied. Other than that, no other parents are going to be invited.

agree. my parents were invited when I was a bm b/c we grew up together and our parents were friendly and sometimes hung out on their own. no other parents were invited.

I have 5 girls, one is my cousin so obviously, my aunt is invited too. Two of the other girls I grew up with so we are inviting their parents, my parents are still friendly with them. The other two girls are from college and I don't think my parents have even ever met their parents so I'm not inviting them.

I've been in a few weddings and my parents were invited to one of them, at the time, our families were close. None of the other girls parents were invited.

Same here. We are close to many of them, so we are inviting those. Those we are not close with, we can't afford to invite.

Only one of the BMs parents are invited. I invited another BMs parents to the church only.

I only invited one of my BMs parents because I have known her since 7th grade and always went over her house.
My other BMs I met as an adult, and had only met their moms once or twice, so I did not think it was appropriate to invite them
FH invited all his GMs parents though because he has been friends with them for a very long time.

I have 2 bm and a MOH.

My sister is the MOH-my parents are obviously coming
My roommate from college is one BM-Her parents are coming.
My other friend I've known since kindergarten, but I never really got to know her parents-her parents are not invited.

I don't thnk you need to invite the parents unless you really know them and they spend time w/ you and your FH. We are inviting 3 of my BM's parents and I have 8 BM's

If you are not close with the one girls parents, I wouldn't. I am inviting my bridesmaids parents, but i have known all of them since elementary school and grew up with them. My fiance is not inviting his groomsman's parents though. He doesn't really know them.

Re: inviting bridesmaids parents

i don't think its necessary to invite all of them. Of my six BMs, two of their parents will be invited. One set is b/c my dad is friends with them, the second is b/c I have known them since childhood and they have been really good to me given the difficult time (mom passed away) that I've gone thru.

I really couldn't believe it...the second mom offered to take me to a tea party scotto brothers hosts, offered to take me to a make-up trial and even invited me over to her house for mother's day.
