If you were invited to a wedding and your DH was not, what would you do? Would DH do the same if he were in the situation?
Bonus points for those that actually ask their DH what they would do.

Re: QOTD 4/4
DH would go too and I wouldn't be bothered one bit!
For our wedding, I didn't invite "random guests". If someone wasn't in a well advertised relationship, they were invited as a single person. I still invited boyfriends and finances and husbands though. I just didn't want people going and finding a date on my dollar because I said they could bring a guest. We had a little bit of a space issue though, and would have had a hard time accommodating too many extra bodies.
We also didn't invite boyfriend of people under 18. I figured any guest under 18 was with their family and it didn't seem necessary to invite those boyfriends. I really didn't want to invite my 20 year old cousin's boyfriend but I did because it was the "right" thing to do. They broke up the day before the wedding. He came anyway because that was also the "right" thing to do since he had rsvp'd. Made it awkward for them though.
It's one of the more serious etiquette offenses in my mind, especially for married couple!! But any level of relationship too. I mean the day is about their love and two people becoming one.....and they can't even be bothered to invite your spouse, partner, your other half. It's very disrespectful and degrading to other relationships.
DH would probably say no. He's not much of a social butterfly.
I have a friend who got married about 6 months before us. She invited me without H. I was unsure if I was going to go and someone told her. A few days before the RSVP date, she contacted me and said she had more nos than predicted and H could come. I wanted to be like I never should have been invited without him!
I asked H. He said he would take me with him anyway. When I said he couldn't, he said he wouldn't go.
