    We allowed plus ones. Most of our guests were married and had kids so we invited whole families.

    We are including plus ones for all of our single guests. This way, we know that we have plenty of seating, food, etc instead of not enough.

    Most people have plus ones, but the people that are single and know a lot of people on the guest list didn't get one.

    I don't care if people want to bring a plus one. They don't have to but they can if they want to.

    We gave plus ones to the bridal party, but not to anyone else that was single at the time.

    We only have a few truly single guests. The only one getting a plus one is FH’s brother, who is in the wedding party.

    I allowed plus ones for literally one of our single guests. We didn’t invite many singles to the wedding, and the ones we DID invite knew almost everyone there with the exception of that one!

    All single guests have plus ones. If we love them enough to invite them, they should be able to bring someone to enjoy the night with.

    All children were invited as well. It made for an inflated guest list..but that's okay. We're only having an actual wedding because we wanted to share it with family and friends.

    Yes most definitely we are allowing plus ones- I feel it would make it uncomfortable and somewhat miserable for some if they weren’t able to bring a plus one

    We definitely invited their plus ones. Who would want to go to a wedding without their spouse or boyfriend/girlfriend? Honestly if I was told I couldn't bring someone, I would just decline the invitation.

    Yes, I did. I didn't want to diminish anyone's relationship.
