Rude, or not?

I have a question that is purely out of curiousity... Is it rude to ask to bring more than 1 guest with you to a wedding?

    It's rude to ask to bring any guest that isn't invited.  So yes, more than one would be very rude.

    Definitely.  Why would you want more than one guest?

    Alright, so I lied and this wasn't JUST out of curiosity... I have had 2 separate people, who don't know each other, ask me if they can bring more than 1 guest. Both requested if they could bring "guests." To both, I very nicely said "No, that will be hard on my budget." I thought it was pretty rude but I just wanted to make sure.

    I had a +1 +1.  As in, invited guest asked to bring a guest, who asked to bring a guest.  RUDE.

    It's rude to ask to bring anything more than what is named on the invitation.However, if you invited a family and only invited 1 out of their 3 children, I could see why there'd be questions.

    The only way I can see this being even remotely OK is if the original invitees guest had a child that you were unaware of.

    Wading, for both of these people, they are independent, so it's not a family thing. And as far as I know, no kids. And I'm pretty sure on that one.

    In that case, how odd.  I couldn't imagine calling up my friend and saying "Hey, can I bring my friend Joe?  And his girlfriend Jane?"
