Guest List Etiquette

Hi gals, what is the etiquette with regards to inviting bridal party's partners? Is it fair to invite my matron of honour's DH and not include the bridesmaids partners simply bcos by the time of my wedding some might actually have new boyfriends whom I don't socialise with? And what if I don't like one of my bridesmaid's partner bcos I happen to know that he is a weasel who's been cheating on her but for some reason she seems to be in denial?

I'm currently revisiting my guestlist and these are some of the few issues I have been struggling with.

Re: Guest List Etiquette

Hi Dee, as far as I know the etiquette is to invite the significant others of your wedding party. You basically find out from them the name of their guest and you include them in the invite regardless of your personal feelings. It's up to your attendant whether or not he/she wants to bring the person.

That's the best I can tell you right now. Sorry. These are the types of things that make weddings difficult.

If you know for a fact that your bridemaid's partner is cheating on her, did you share this information with her? It's really up to her to decide if she wants to bring that person.

Re: Guest List Etiquette

Thanx a lot Vi, guess I'll have to put my feelings aside and invite them. Was hoping to use those extra space for some people I would actually like to have but can't because of space limitations.
