Invite Bridesmaids/Groomsmen Families??

I'm inviting the Mom of one of my bridesmaids, but she was second Mom to me when we were growing up. Heck, I've known this particular bridesmaid since we were both in diapers! Other than that, we aren't inviting the parents of our bridal party.

Only if you know their families well enough. If you don't know their parents, don't invite them.

You definitely don't have to invite the family of the bridesmaids and groomsmen (just their significant others). If you would invite their parents anyway then do so, but not just because their son or daughter is in your bridal party!

Definitely not!!

I'm inviting the mom of one of my bridesmaids and both parents of another. That's because I'm close to them though, it's not necessary.

No you don't have to. Only if you know them and are close to them and want to invite them. Its ok to invite some and not others.

This is something I struggled with... One of my good friends, potential BM, has a rather large family. I do know her family, I wouldn't say we're exceptionally close but I know them. I spent a lot of time at this friend's house when we were in middle and high school. If I did invite family, it would be from this friend and one other, but seeing as how we're trying to cut the guest list and not add to it...it probably won't happen and I can only hope they'll understand.

Only if they are people you would normally invite anyways. I am inviting the parents of one of my bridesmaids, but only because we are close to them anyways and would love to have them there regardless of whether or not their daughter was one of our bridesmaids.
