Plus ones

There's no exception when it comes to people in relationships. Significant others aren't plus ones. Couples are a social unit and should be invited to events as such.

Couples should be invited together. Especially married couples. I have a friend who is still bitter at her boyfriend being invited to a wedding a few years ago where he wasn't given a plus one. She even tried to get him to not attend the wedding on principle.

If you're close with these friends and don't give a plus one, again especially to a married couple, you could possibly be making things rocky for yourself in the future.

Plus ones are for truly single guests. Anyone in a relationship (married or dating) should be invited by name, as they are a social unit. It is considered rude to ask someone to celebrate your relationship while not recognizing theirs.

View Quoted Comment I don’t know how to reply to all.. Thank you ladies! Even if the married one didn’t invite our plus ones to her wedding? None of us were married at that point however.

Do you have the space? i mean i know that's the etiquette to invite the married couples but i'm wondering if you didn't do that because you don't have the space?

View Quoted Comment We didn’t have the budget, we split the guest list evenly and I have a large family so had to make this difficult decision

View Quoted Comment Yes, even then. Married is so different than dating in my opinion. I’d never attend a wedding my husband isn’t invited to, no matter how close I am to someone. It’s awkward being at a wedding where there’s things like slow dancing and not being able to dance with your spouse. You wouldn’t invite your aunt but not her husband just because family is there for them to socialize with.

Plus ones are only for people that are single. If someone is in a relationship they should be invited as a couple. You want to invite them to an event to celebrate your relationship, but would ignore their relationship. I don't think I would attend a wedding if my husband wasn't invited. If she didn't invite your significant to her wedding that was the wrong thing for her to do.

If they are married, it is not a plus one! It would be very rude to invite someone to your wedding and not their spouse. Anyone in a relationship would be invited as a social unit.

Plus ones are only for single people.
