I agree with both Emilie and Daphne. It's a tricky spot! I think patience, politeness and diplomacy will be your best bet in dealing with this issue. Hopefully people will understand and still have a great time at the wedding.

Hey Allison! Welcome!! I'm glad you're bringing this up! It's not an easy one. I think the best is to explain that you have a budget to respect and that for this reason you have decided to only have a few plus ones. You can also comment in this discussion for advice: Who should get a plus-one?

The plus 1!!

Plus ones

How many guests are you having in total?

That's a tricky one because no matter how you handle it, some will get insulted and may just decline the invite altogether. I would be very polite and be honest as to why the invite was only for them and why no plus one.
