Hi Brides!
I'm hoping you can help me - we're putting our invites together and I've been worrying about something. A good friend of my fiance had been dating his girlfriend for several years and moved in with her. We live close by and gotten to know them both well. We had sent them a STD addressed to both of them by name. Unfortunately they recently broke up and he moved out. Very shortly after he started dating and moved in with another woman. I believe the ex gf may have started seeing someone also. This happened once before in their relationship and they got back together very quickly but I don't think that may be the case this time.
My concern is what to do about the former girlfriend...we still see her out and about frequently, have a good number of mutual friends (many of which are invited to the wedding), and I imagine our STD magnet may still be at her place/fridge. We're friendly but I've never hung out with her independently. My plan was to send the formal wedding invitation to fiance's friend "and guest" at his new address and leave it at that...but I worry I'm being rude since her name was on the Save the Date. Help! If they weren't both in new relationships I'd guess that I could have just sent an invite to each without guests and let them figure it out but that still would have felt a bit weird.
Honestly we are maxed out on our guest list, I know two more guests shouldn't break the bank but the budget is tight. I also worry about it being awkward for our fiance's friend/his ex gf/new gf/their mutual friends. I'm not sure what kind of terms they are on. Help! Obviously, if I'm being inconsiderate and should be inviting the former gf plus a guest we will just make it work financially.
Thank you!
