I have read somewhere that if your single guests are in a serious relationship then you address the invite as Ms. Smith & Guest. Now what do you do if your single guests are not involved with anyone? Do you invite them and a guest of their choice, or do you just invite the single guest? Any and all information will be highly appreciated!!

Re: Single Guest w/ a date or not ???
I am inviting anyone single with a guest. I think it is nice that they can bring someone they are close with, not necessarily a bf or gf.

That depends on you.. if it is in your budget and you dont mind you address it Mr John Smith and guest. If you dont want them to bring anyone ( some people even if not in a serious relationship will just find someone to bring) then you only address it Mr John Smith

WE invited them with Guest. But, now my dilema is that the single guest sent his response card for himself only. But, I have a feeling that he is bringing someone but, I don't want to ask if he is and make him feel bad if he is not.

I would invite with guest if you have the room. I think it's a nice thing to do.

I think you can do either one.. You can offer the option to bring a guest to the single guest. Then it's their decision whether to do so or not.
Sometimes if a person is single, they may prefer not to bring a guest because a wedding can be a good place to meet someone.
Weddings just light those fires... haha
I say.. if it's OK with you, leave them the option to bring a guest or not.

I am not inviting anyone with a date who is not married or in a serious relationship. I woudl consider it, if someone did not know ANYONE else, but if there are a few people they know, I would not invite them with a date.

If a friend invited me to a wedding, and I only knew him, I would not go unless it was with a guest. I would feel awkward and alone. Invite with guest if you want the person there.

I cant afford to invite with guest unless married or been in a long term relationship. Plus everyone there, knows eachother one way or another.

I think all adults should always be invited with a guest, regardless of their relationship status.

We invited all our single (that is non-married or divorced people) to bring a date. We were short on our guest list. Many did bring a date, however many did not as they had no one in their lives to bring as a date. Now almost 2 years later many are in serious relationships and one of our GM is engaged and planning a 2004 wedding.

Re: Single Guest w/ a date or not ???
I personally think it is only right to invite the single people with a guest weither or not they are in a serious relationship Who are you to judge how serious a relationship is ??
Just a little example. Fh's friend was getting married in FL last September he decided to invite FH without a guest. They invited fsil to the wedding with out a guest (she is living with someone) The exuse why I wasnt invited was they didnt know we were in a serious relationship. Lets see we are dating 4 years and got engaged 4 or 5 weeks after your wedding guess we werent serious.. Needless to say FH didn't go..Not only b/c i wasnt invited but b/c this wedding was going to cost him close to 2grand for the weekend.

Re: Single Guest w/ a date or not ???
I am inviting all single guests without a serious other by themselves...I am on a budget and have to watch how many people I invite - everyone more or less knows each other, so it's not a big deal...
