Originally we were only going to invite our parents and the wedding party to the rehearsal dinner since they would be the only ones at the rehearsal itself. That is what I thought was "the norm" and I wasn't at all bothered when I was not invited to a rehearsal dinner for a wedding my FI (and not myself) was involved in last year. However, my MOH is traveling a few hundred miles from here with her fiance. Should he be invited since he's coming from out of town? I'm not sure how my MOH would feel about having to "ditch" him for majority of the day. But if I invite him, does that mean all SOs of the wedding party would need to be invited? That would only add around 2-3 people but since my FI's family is paying for it (and I know they're in a very tough spot financially) I'd feel awkward asking them if that's okay. I wish I could offer to pay for the extra few people myself, and I suppose I can if there's not another option, but we're barely able to stay within out budget as-is, due to a few unexpected emergencies that happened after contracts were already signed. Thanks in advance for any input
