   Who do you give a plus 1? I am on a guest list limit and I really want to limit the number of people my fiance and I aren't atleast acquaintances with (in terms of guests our age, associated with our friends). I want friends to be able to have fun (and to come) but I don't really want to add another 20 guests on. (No…

   Etiquette requires that everyone married, engaged, living together, or in a long term relationship (usually defined as 6 months) must be invited with their s/o. For truly single guests, it's up to you. For planning purposes, count all of your singles as 2, though. You never know when someone on your list will meet and…

   I gave my WP a plus 1. I also gave it to those who are married, engaged or I know to be in a long term/serious relationship. HTH It's OK to not give it to your single friends. They don't need to scrounge up some random person to bring wtih them.

   This might just be my quirk, and it might be confined to where I live, but it's pretty standard in our locale to give everyone a plus 1. Most people don't want to go to a party alone. Plus, where do you draw the line and define "long term relationship"? You get into a sticky spot of judging and evaluating the importance of…

   I'm inviting "plus" one for those who are married, in a long term relationship, or engaged. I don't put "plus" one for those who just got in a relationship (a month long). So far, no complaint, I already got 74 "yeses" within 1.5 week of sending out the invitation!

   Giving no one at all a plus one is fine. Yet, giving only a few people a plus one is wrong. Solution is have no plus ones and if someone has a significant other there name would be on the invitation also (so they are not a plus one but an invited guest)

   The only people I'm inviting dates for are people who are engaged, or have been dating for a long time. That's the only way I could see inviting some but not all.

   I'm only inviting my friends' significant others if they're engaged or married. I think they understand, and I'm trying not to make any exceptions. If a lot of people on my guest list say they can't come, then I can reconsider. Either way, I'm sure everyone will understand your decision. Your bridal party does deserve…

    We decided to give single people, especially those that do not know anyone else, a plus one but I am also trying to stop people bringing others that they (or I) don't really know. So, when I sent out the invitations I added 'guest name' to the plus one invitations so that they have to put some thought into it and they…
