1. +1 question

   This isn't related to my wedding but a friends. She came to me this morning with this: She's having a small number of people at her wedding but it's still black tie. We have a mutual friend to came to her screaming that she didn't get a plus 1 on her invite. This woman isn't in any type of comitted relationship and it's…

   You don't have to offer plus 1's to truly single guests. That said, for a black tie event I'd side eye that choice big time. Black tie implies that money is no object: offer the best food, best drinks, and when in any semblance of doubt, err on the side of making the guest happy (ie; give the single gal a guest!).

   My husband and I met at a wedding where we were two of the only single people present, neither of us were given a +1 (despite the fact that we had each traveled for the wedding). We've since met several couples who met in almost identical circumstances. Seriously, weddings are really good places to meet people who less…

   The wedding is small..maybe 20 people and everyone knows each other very well. No one had any idea that she was seeing anyone in any shape or form. She knows every single person that's going to be there and no one is really traveling (the bed and breakfast is about a 45 minute drive). The bride and groom are going all out…

   If she's truly single and won't go unless she can bring a plus-one, then she shouldn't go, simple as that. I would do my best to accommodate someone I invited without a guest if they politely asked if they could bring a friend, but I wouldn't respond well to being screamed at. Your friend is doing nothing wrong here.

   If this person won't know many people at the wedding, I would probably extend them a plus one so that they have someone to chat with when the bride and groom are busy. However, no one has any business yelling at the bride. If she really wants to bring someone and it's outside the confines of the budget maybe she should…

   Ditto PP. And this guest in question has no business screaming at the bride about it whether she has a significant other or not. That is just asinine.

   If they are truly single, no plus one is needed. However, if the guest has to travel a distance to go to the wedding, it would be nice to let her have a plus one. If you can afford a plus one, it is nice to extend a plus one, it is nice, but not necessary. As an aside, we invited all our single guests to bring a plus one.…
