I know that it's a year away but my sister is trying to get a rough number so she can budget. Just wondering if you guys are including the groomsmen's girlfriends and wives. I'm friends with 2 of them (like we'll hang out without the boys) but not sure if I should include the other 2 or 3. TIA!

I got lucky...all of FH's taken/married groomsmen are from FL. I didn't sent them invites.

We're not. Should we? I'm not friends with them and they wouldn't be invited if it wasn't for the guy. I am inviting my brothers gf though.

we are inviting most of them... a few I'm not close with but we might just send them invites because they live out of state and prob won't come anyway... that way we cover our tracks! haha

I put two of FH's friend's significant others on my list....one because I was invited to her shower and another so she would know someone else. Had I not been invited to the girl's shower there is no way I would have included them.

I'm very close with two of the groomsmen's wives. So they will be invited. There is only one other, but I do not know her at all, and I think it would be weird to be like 'I don't know you but come bring me a present' so I will not be including her on my list.

I am only inviting the people who are important to me there. If I wouldn't hang out with them alone I am not including them in my guest list for the shower.

I'm probably going to invite most of FH's friends' girlfriends/wives. I've been invited to the majority of their bridal showers/baby showers/bachelorette parties/birthdays, and feel like it would be rude to not reciprocate. There's only one that I'm not inviting, and that's because she is a world class biotch. LOL

I personally think if they have been dating a long time or if they are married that you should invite them out of respect for the groomsmen. If you aren't close with them there is a good chance they won't come anyways! However, if you have never met them I don't think you have to invite them.
