    The wedding party should be treated just like the rest of the guests. Sending them a wedding invitation is thoughtful. In addition, some may want to keep it as a memento of your special day. Plus, sending them an invitation clarifies the time and location of the event for them.

    On the Other: Invitations to Wedding Party Duplicates Work

    Sending invitations to the wedding party seems redundant. They are aware of the wedding details from other communications. And since they are in the wedding party, they are planning on being at the special event.

    Bottom Line

    If you are having a formal, upscale wedding, you should definitely send wedding invitations to the wedding party. If the occasion is a more casual affair or your budget is tight, you can skip sending them an invitation. However, be sure to mention in other correspondence that you opted not to send invitations to the wedding party. This will prevent them from thinking you overlooked them.
