@allie_voss: I dont hnderstand why people feel entitled to plus ones at a wedding when they’re not even engaged. I’ve seen a lot of 2026 and 2027 brides saying “no ring no invite” and this strikes me as completely fair? I totally understand why you wouldn’t want random people at your wedding. And the thing is, if your relationship is as serious as you say, then just get engaged! It’s not that hard!
Wanting people to come celebrate your love while dismissing theirs is WILD!!!

We’ve been together 6 years and own a house together. Neither of us would be happy if the other wasn’t invited. It’s not as simple as “just get engaged” what an out of touch statement.

We bought a house. It’s at least a 30 year commitment.

But a ring doesn't mean a lifelong relationship. Divorce is incredibly common. It's such a weird way to limit guests.

If you want to be that strict about your wedding, that’s your right. If people don’t want to show up to celebrate the relationship of someone who disrespects theirs, that’s their right. It’s so simple.

“But they might break up” right, but for the past 5 years they haven’t. That’s kinda the point.

A ring or a piece of paper does not dictate the seriousness of a relationship btw.

Guess what, I was married 20 years, and I’m not married anymore. I will never get married again. No ring, no bring is lame.

I’m in a lot of wedding photos of people who are no longer married. Marriage does not guarantee anything. I’ve known people who have gotten married 3+ times while in the same time people have been with their long term partner.

My bf and I have been dating for almost 5 years and I would be offended if he was not on the invitation. We’re waiting to afford what we want because should theoretically only get married once

Because marriage is a instution which only benefit is paying less taxes, access to retire of other partner and other boring Admin stuff. Commitment is something you practice every day. Like you arent more commited just because breaking up is harder now. And I get not wanting to have random people at your wedding, but I would trust the couple with a 10+ relationship more than the couple who are together 3 and married 2 years.

I refuse to get engaged until after I have my doctorate. It's not because I want to keep my options open. It's because I won't be ready for that stage of my life until after I'm completely out of school. Marriage doesn't mean life long commitment. It means you thought that was going to be your person at the time. However divorce rates are high, and divorces are expensive. So no I don't get the brides that say that, because what if I brought my bf that I've been with for 10 years, or if I brought my best friend instead.

Long term partners are named on the invite, not plus ones lol

I agree with brides limiting their guests that way. But I don't think not having a ring means you're not serious or you're "keeping your options open"

Meg ✨ simply trying my best :
It’s just a weird thing to say that bc you value marriage so highly you’re not willing to be around other couples that don’t value it in the same way. Bringing a wedding guest also is also more about the other person having someone to hangout with that night so it’s more enjoyable for them, some people may want to just bring a friend to tag along. If you want your guests to enjoy the day don’t police their plus 1

Also, if I wanted your plus one at the wedding, I would have sent them their own invite.

Lost a friendship because I didn’t invite a 8 year situationship to our wedding and at that point I was so tired of the situation I did not even mind

I feel like any relationship over a year should get a plus one unless they are high school/middle school, or you haven’t met them and only ask for plus ones you have met before. Marriage is important for some but not for others doesn’t make them less serious plenty of people get married way to fast no shame to those who wait and don’t rush
