Default Can you attend a wedding if the invitation wasn't addressed to you?

My boyfriend's friends are getting married later this year. They sent an invitation but they only addressed it to him. This means that he's the only one invited to the wedding so I'm not going. He insists that it's just an oversight and he'll RSVP for two so we can go together. My boyfriend and I have been together for six years; his friends know that I exist.

Isn't it rude to RSVP for more people that the invitation was addressed to and isn't it definitely rude to attend a wedding where they didn't address an invitation to you? I think it would be absolutely improper for me to attend this wedding.

I think it is perfectly fine for you to attend. I know on my invitations I have forgotten to add a couple names on there, but I'm sure everyone who has been forgotten knows it was just a mistake. Also, I made my own list of names and addresses and just put first names down and had help addressing the envelopes and I know the people helping me did not add their names! I would definately go, especially after being together 6 years!

I had people RSVP with just "guest" added onto their RSVP (so we had no idea who they were bringing). It is normal for people not to want to come to a wedding by themselves.

I think since you have been together for so long, it would be 100% acceptable for you to RSVP with him.

If his friends know that you two are going (they should know you've been together for six years!), then that invitation is probably for you two.
