We have just found out that our Best Man and his girlfriend, who I have got quite close to since they have been together for the past 3/4 years ... (she was in the running to be a Bridesmaid kinda close) have split up. Now this is the 2nd time they have done so and the last 2 times they split I had texts/phone calls with her. This time I haven't which makes me think that perhaps it was her decision? We will be finding the details out later when we see the Best Man when out for H2B's Birthday tonight.

This brings up a few questions and potential awkwardness as she is invited and is a def for my Hen Do etc. Do we still invite her to the Day or just the eve?

I know we have a while to go and potentially they could get back together but who knows!?

What do you lovely people think?

If you've become close to her then I'd still invite her xxx

It would still be nice to invite her if she is still your friend. However as you still have time just wait until when you actually send out the formal invites, a lot can happen in 6 or 7 months xxx

I'd keep the invites as they are for now. A lot can change in the time before your wedding solid just wait and see what happens naturally. X

Thank you everyone. After seeing our Best Man last night I now have my answer lol.

They are still friends and it is very amicable and our Best Man even said to me last night that it shouldn't effect his/mine and mine/my friends relationship. She also text me this morning so things are all fine!! :)

I think because they had split twice before and on those occasions things were very different to how they split this time I was a bit concerned. I just had visions of the best Man on the day feeling awkward with his now ex there and along with making sure my parents are civil with each other I didn't want more people to have to worry about in that aspect lol!!

We are probably sending Invites November to give people 4/5 months to respond before we need to give our final numbers and we get married just before a Half Term starts and a Bank Holiday Weekend. So, as has been said things could change but this time I doubt it as they are being very sensible about things which is good to see.

She is still wanting to come on my hen so that's all good :)

It sounds awful and probably comes across as quite selfish my original post but I am just glad it doesn't affect any friendships as I don't want anyone to feel awkward on our day or feel like they should/shouldn't be there as I want everyone to be happy and to enjoy themselves.

Indeed, it is exactly that :) xx
