Wondering if you guys could give me some insight on this plus one situation. We're having a pretty large wedding (250 people) and are really tight on the numbers (we're about to be over already). We haven't sent out invitations yet. I have about 7 first cousins total, all of whom I grew up with (we have many events during the years) although we were never extremely close as to actually hangout outside of these. I'm a lot older than some of them.
Does every first cousin need a plus one? I'm giving plus ones to everyone who is in a serious relationship (living together), but my one cousin is 21 years old and while she has been dating someone for almost 3 years (and talks about marriage), they're still in college and don't technically live together. Keep in mind that this family (my aunt and uncle) have been VERY generous to me over the years. Should she get to bring this boyfriend? There's another cousin who is the exact same age as her but isn't dating anyone - if we invite her boyfriend do we need to give my other cousin a plus one?
