How late is too late to be invited as a date to a wedding? When should one be offended because they have known the person asking them for a while, and were asked as a date to a wedding at the last minute?

This sounds like two questions to me. In my opinion, you can not take the wedding guest list personally. There are many considerations, and possibly, quite complicated negotiations that revolve around budget, other family members, and the degree of privacy the couple desire for their wedding. The etiquette websites don't answer the question when an invitation should be sent, however, I think guests should be notified at least a month ahead. This gives time for the guests to respond by mail, to change other plans they may have had, and to consider giving a gift. You don't say much about your last minute date comment. Possibly "the date" was arranged by your friend: She had wanted you to come all along, but couldn't invite you because she had already reached her limit of invites... then somebody in the wedding party suddenly had an open seat, so the arrangement with you became possible... is that possible? I would assume the best intentions. So, don't be offended -- feel honored that she could squeeze you onto the guest list, even if it was at the last minute.

Put your female emotions a side go and have a blast! Make it memorable so you’ll be asked again and again!
