no. she is just dumb and they are going way over and beyond to save money on the wedding by inviting less people, but rather than cut down on invites they are just not letting anyone bring dates.

we've been trying for 6 months, including saying that we were going to bring dates anyways and if they want to turn us away at the door then thats their choice. You got a plus 1 if you lived with your SO (which lets the married guy bring his wife and one or two of her friends bring their boyfriends). but really she is just a major bitch. She also hates kids and is forcing family members to leave younger kids at home with a babysitter.
Allegedly we are not "allowed" to go out on Friday night before the wedding, but everyone knows thats not happening and I will definitely have a flask in my jacket come ceremony time. At one point in time it was going to be a dry wedding bc, as the bride stated to the groom, "I'm not paying for all your friends to get hammered drunk when almost no one on my side drinks." Over time this got converted to there being wine, beer, and sangria from what I last heard.
but yea, we all pretty much have the same feeling as people itt have stated and all of our girlfriends or other female friends think that all her actions are ridiculous and agree with the bitchiness so I dont think its just us overreacting to things. I'm a little annoyed I cant bring my girlfriend, but its not the end of the world. She hasn't met either of them so it would be similar to a random date from their perspective.
I really do want suggestions for a gift though. Some of us were going to go in together for a watch until we found out that the bride is getting him a watch.
