guest question

My family is super small. Cousins, aunts, uncles, siblings and nephews equal 15 people total. With guests. My fiancée s family is huge. We are inviting aunt's and uncle's with guests but unmarried cousins without guests. Most of them are younger and/or without significant others. Is this ok?

Re: guest question

  • Truly single people don't need to be invited to bring a guest, but anyone in a relationship that they consider serious/important should be invited with their significant other.  If the cousins are under 18, you can get away with not inviting their significant others, if they have one.  
  • All significant others should be invited.  Even if they've only been dating a few weeks, they're still invited.

    I think the only exception might be a minor?  Like, under 18?  But someone can correct me if I'm wrong here--is it okay to invite, say, a 16 year old cousin without his/her boyfriend/girlfriend?

  • It is ok to invite truly single people without guests.  Adults in a relationship of any length should be invited with their significant others.  Its generally ok to not invite the significant others of those still in high school.
