Q: My siblings and I are throwing an anniversary party for our parents. To keep costs down, we’d like to invite unattached relatives who are in their 20s without guests. Is that acceptable?
A: You’re having an anniversary party, not a dating event. It’s commendable to consider your guests’ feelings, but I wouldn’t worry. It’s not as if they wont know anyone – the party will be filled with their cousins and other relatives. To prevent any misunderstandings, be upfront when inviting those young, single guests (if they were married, engaged, or living with someone, they would be invited as a couple). While conveying how much you want them to attend, also mention that you they realize that you’re able to invite only your parents’ family members and friends to this celebration.

I think that is singles in their 20′s do not get guests that you should not give singles in their 30′s, 40′s, 50′s, 60′s guests either. The limit should not be based on age of the adult. Either no single adults get guests or all single guests get to bring guests to do itr based on age seems unfair.
Agreed!
