Dear Amy: Is there a way that a wedding invitation addressed to my wife and me and our 40-year-old single son could be changed to a “plus one” invitation so my son could bring his serious girlfriend of two-plus years to the wedding?
My son will likely not want to travel from one coast to the other for the April wedding without his girlfriend.
However, if this family is as close to your son as you state, then presumably they would know about this almost-fiancé in your son’s life. Furthermore, if your son isn’t invested enough in this wedding to consider going with you , then that is another clue that – even if you and the parents are extremely close, he and the marrying couple are not first-tier friends. And it’s their wedding.
I will say this – as a daughter, mother, and very happy stepmother: If you give people power and control over your life, they will happily take it and run with it.
