     Day After Brunch - Guest Pays  

My fiance and I were going to host a day after brunch for the bridal party and immediate family, but the increased wedding costs have changed that descision.

We would like our hotel guests and local friends to join us for brunch the day after. Is it appropriate to send invitations to the guests that are staying the night to RSVP to me for the brunch (so I can create seating arrangements), but note it's a no host brunch and what the cost of the brunch will be for them? If it is ok, can you suggest wording.

Does an invitation imply that we are paying?

Thanks

Dear Emartin,

There is no polite way to invite guests to an event they are require to host. Yes, an invitation implies the host is hosting (paying). So, it is best to host the event you can afford to host or skip it entirely.

Best wishes,
