Are you inviting your BP's parents? If you are, are you inviting all of them? Here is my situation: All of my BM's and MOH's parents would be attending, but 2 girls I am unsure what to do. One is my koumbara. I dont really know her parents but my dad does. The other is my BM---I've known her for over 10 yrs and know her parents but I'm not that close with them. What should I do? Invite them to be polite?

Re: Inviting your BP's parents??? Advice!
I would probably ask your dad if he wants to invite your koumbara's parents, since he is the one who is close with them. 2 of my BM are my first cousins so obviously their parents will be coming since they are my aunt and uncle. My best friends who are coming are not being invited with their parents......if I do it for them, then I have to invite every single GM parents as well to be fair!!

if your dad is close with your koumbara's parents than def invite them, as for the other bm its your call but if it were me id prob extend the invitation

There's a chunk of my BP that I've known since I was 5; I invited their parents and that is where I cut it. Eric did the same w/ his guys.

He isnt close with them, but he knows them (You know how all Greeks know each other LOL). I only met her mom once. But I wasnt sure if you HAVE to invite the koumbaras parents?

We're inviting one of my BM's mother (she's like a second mother to me), and one of our GM's mother (like a second mother to FH). I also have another BM's parents on the b-list. Some of our other BP's parents are on the list too, but that's because they're family.

Let's see out of 5 BM's, I'm inviting 3 parents. Two of my girls I've been friends with since kids so I'm close to their moms.
The other BM is DIno's SIL for 12 years so her mom, and grandmother are close to his family.
Out of 5 GM, we are inviting 3 of their parents (2 are brothers). FH has known them for 10+ year and is close to their parents.

Re: Inviting your BP's parents??? Advice!
I have 6 bm/moh's and out of that I have invited 4 of the girls parents. I feel kind of bad about not inviting the other two but our guest list is already much higher than we thought and I am just much closer with the parents that I have invited...I think it's a choice of what makes you the most happy - you're the bride!

FH is inviting only 1 of GMs parents, but not the rest. He has lived across the street from that GM for almost his entire life, so the families all know each other well. I don't think the other GM will be offended by that in the least.

Only my MOH's. I wasn't going to originally but I had sent a STD to her house (she was still living with them) addressed only to my MOH, but her parents called me to say they were SO excited for the wedding. But they are so nice and very good to me (especially in college when MOH and I were roomies) so I had to invite them.

Re: Inviting your BP's parents??? Advice!
FH is inviting all the parents of the GMs....bc he has known them so long. but its not that theyre close so
im inviting my MOHs parents, cuz they have been like a second family. im not inviting other parents of my BMs. its not necessary and i think it would be ackward for them to receive an invite (and one of them ive known since kindergarden)...idk, maybe that one i should invite? idk....grr

Re: Inviting your BP's parents??? Advice!
most of the GM's parents are invited, FH grew up with the all the guys... one of them didn't invite any parents to their wedding so none of FH's friends invited them so we are not inviting them either.
BM's, only the parents of one of my 'friend' BM's are invited. this was actually an upsetting thing... some of my friends that were/are very close with my parents did not invite my parents to their weddings and my parents (and I) were very insulted by this. We have decided not to invite their parents and follow suit.
