Remember Andrew Weeks? He is getting married to a girl names Erin.... they are getting hitched at the Naval Academy Chapel, with a reception at the Loews Annapolis afterwards... so the whole Acctg BSchool crowd will be there!

I was just going to be direct, but wasnt sure if it was really tacky, I mean, if they can't swing another head (which we would cover), then I probably wouldnt go.... just bc I don't want to be sharing a room with two guy friends from college etc., ya know?

Eeeeeee. Normally, if it were someone you were in close contact with, I'd say that they know that you have a boyfriend and chose to only invite you. For space, money, whatever reason. But even it's only chit-chat, if they didn't know you had a (cute!) boyfriend, they still could have give you a plus-one. They're probably doing it for money reasons...

This is one of the reasons that I hate talking about/giving my opinion on guest lists! Sometimes people don't invite plus-ones unless friends are married, which seems pretty craptastic to me.

But you probably know all this! I'd probably send my regrets and a gift, but by all means, if you feel comfy, try to say something along the lines of what Christy says -- maybe even mention that you weren't sure whether they were not doing plus-ones as a rule, or ...? Augh! Hard! Good luck!

True- I figure I will check w/ the boy as to how much he would really want to go before I drop the "wondering" comment. I was going to do that, but I needed a gut check first.

I mean, if he says no, I will def just send the gift and be on my merry way... :)

I'd say to ask. It can't hurt, and if he says no for financial reasons that's reasonable, especially since he might not know you're involved now.

Seems to be the consensous.... being that I am not married (and havent gone through the whole invite process).... I wanted to make sure I wasnt breaking some "golden rule" of wedding etiquette. haha.

LOL, well I'm the first to admit that I'm not exactly up on wedding etiquette ;) Kara and I like to fight over it cause I think most of it's dumb ;)
