Would you invite a bee to your wedding? and im not just talking the bloggers Im talking about a bee that is just on the boards etc.
(and by all the starts align I mean, she lives in the same town or close, you have room at the wedding and you can afford it etc.)
if you got invited would you go?

If I was friends with them, yes. But if I didn’t know them outside of weddingbee, then no.

There are a few bees who probably dont know, but i feel i have a connection to them. There posts maybe seem sincere all the time and I have followed there “treck” through the wedding world of planning. Some i just feel like…”If I knew this girl im sure we would be great friends” So im always curious if others feel this way.

I would totally go and invite someone off the boards if there was that friendship connection!

There are some Bees whose wedding I would go to in a heartbeat. I just know that it wouldve been helpful to have someone who knows what it’s like to plan a wedding have my back and help me stay organized. My sister was great as were my bridal posse. It just would’ve been nice, so definately.

I totally would! the only thing that i think would be awkward would be… where to put them? None of my friends/family are very much into online stuff (not even Fiance.. I’m all alone! lol) and I think any of them would think it was SUPER weird that I invited some “random blogger” (honestly most of them might not what a blog is) or person from a message board to my wedding.. so i’d have to try to figure out the least judgmental people and put them by that group haha.

@CorgiTales: That’s the only problem I think I’d have with it too. You could always just come up with some elaborate back story of your friendship that explains why no one has met this person before…

@Baileyh: Haha I would totally do it! I think I’m just the type of person who isn’t afraid of strangers though. I get what you mean by the post though…WB is a good way to make new friends. Even if we’re online we’re still a community and we share such personal stories with each other…I think it could work!

I had a small wedding with only 60 people, but if I didn’t have the budget constraint I would’ve LOVED to invite some girls from here. The Bees could appreciate better than anyone all the nerves and jitters I went through to put things together and how it all came together in the end. I’d totally go to another Bee’s wedding too if I was invited. I would probably notice the little cute details that other guests may not.

I definitely have a couple of Bees who I think if we knew one another in real life, we’d be great friends. It would have been kind of fun to invite some people from the Bee to our wedding and if I was invited to someone else’s, I’d go in a heartbeat!

I would too! There are lots of bees on here who I think I would be great “real life” friends with if we were living near each other. People meet and form love relationships from online sites all the time…why not friendships too?
