Mike, I think it would be a good idea to let people know that they can bring their significant other if they would like. This is so often unclear to invitees and many people opt to not go to an event rather than ask if they can bring their spouse because they feel akward inquiring. I think it would be very kind and probably improve the turn out for the event to let people know.
Hi Melodi,
Great answer. Peter Post is going to answer this question in his Boston Globe Column this week so we have taken down the original question for now. I will be sure to forward Mike your answer in case he doesn’t find it. This community is getting so fast with the good advice. Big thanks are due to you and all the others who lend a hand.
Daniel
