Excluding college friend's significant other who is a buzzkill

You have no choice, they are in a relationship. You wont notice her, I promise.

Yes- if they are dating and have been- and they are a couple and moving in- she deserves an invite.

That's his problem she sucks at socializing- or has social anxiety- or whatever issue she has. That is HIS cross to bear. not yours.

Invite her and don't worry another thought about it.

They shouldn't have to be cohabitating or engaged for their SO to be invited. Who are you to judge the depth of someone's relationship?

And also, if you invite one you invite the other .. that's how it works.

Yes, you have to invite her since she is dating your friend. Bummer that no one likes her, but you won't even notice her on your wedding day.

Yeah.. just bite the bullet and invite her. You'll be so busy with everything you likely won't notice her behavior.

It's their SO, they must be invited, by name. How old are you?

If you invite him, yes she needs to be invited...

Anyone with a significant other gets an invite for their significant other. Period.

@Future Mrs G-- I am not judging the depth of a relationship; I'm simply drawing the line somewhere because I can't afford to give everyone's "flavor of the week" a +1!

It's your wedding. You don't have to invite that person if you don't want. Everyone says it's a must no no it's not. Its your wedding you can invite who you want. If he is as good of a friend as you say talk to him. Most men don't like taking sand to the beach anyways. Then if you think he will be mad at you then you can make that choice. NO WHERE DOES IT STATE YOU MUST INVITE THE SIGNIFICANT OTHER. this is the 21st century nothing is done traditionally anymore. DO WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY ITS YOUR DAY.

If they are about to move in together I feel like its a little more serious than a flavor of the week...

Cut them both then.

Not everyone gets a plus one, but if you know her well enough to not like her? She's a SO and she gets an invite.

@Richard That's a good point---cutting him too since we haven't been very close the past few years!

@Samantha-You are completely incorrect, but thanks for playing.

I second Nikki, If you are this guys friend you care about his happiness... and if she makes him happy invite her.. or leave them both off if its a budget issue

@Miss2Mrs and @OG Alecia The Flavor of the Week comment applies to all guests--not just this couple! For example. we both have late teen/early tewenties siblings who switch SOs more often than some people change their bedsheets!

@Samantha what? Men don't like taking sand to the beach?

Invite both of them or neither. You don't break up a social unit

You don't get to judge that.

Either you can afford them both- or you cannot.

If you don't like these people and have such poor regard for them- then just don't invite them.

You're making a mistake a lot of people make- you start big and try to whittle it down. Start with "must haves" and work out- you'll feel a lot less guilty and it'll be less expensive.

Well that could be why she doesn't engage in the social events and plays on her phone...
