Plus one etiquette?
We are having a small wedding and have limited our guest list to 30 people. My friend’s partner can’t make it so she’s asking if she can use her plus one on a mutual friend I hadn’t originally invited.
I would be super glad to have that person at the wedding but I’m not sure how to approach it. My friend mentioned it might be nicer if it came from me but won’t it be rude for me to invite her as my friend’s guest instead of an actual invitation?
On the other hand, won’t it be rude for my friend to invite her without me reaching out to her?
*I could send her a separate invite but it would be for only one person and a bit late. It will be obvious she wasn’t on the original guest list.
