Hi, Im planning on inviting my whole company to the wedding. Most of them are married, but there are a couple of people who are single and do not have a boyfriend or girlfriend. Would I invite them with Guest? Thanks.
That depends. If they're going to know people there and you know they're cool with going alone, then invite w/o guest. Also, think what your budget will allow.
We invited all single friends w/ guest and only one came with a guest.
We invited all single people with a guest and I think only one came with a guest as well.
I had a system:
Divorcees were invited with a guest
singles with a guest
and widowers no guest
They may be single now, but who knows what could happen in the weeks before the response cards are due back. I know some of my single friends are purposely holding back just in case they do find someone. Also, some people may be casually seeing someone, but just haven`t yet gone public with the news. It can be a tough call, especially if you`re on a strict budget, but if you can offer the option, I think most people appreciate it and feel more comfortable having it.
The overall headcount can increase so fast with singles invited with a guest, but if you can afford it, I think it would be nice. Just be sure to be consistent, and if you`re going to invite some singles with guests, make sure others aren`t excluded from the option.
