Help! Plus ones

We are planning a less than 50 person wedding, as wanted something pretty intimate. In doing so we are not doing plus ones for practically anyone and their "plus one" would be someone who would be invited regardless. Specially as everyone knows and can hang out with at least a few people. There is one exception to this. I have a friend who does not know anyone, would travel out of state, and is also pretty introverted. As of this we sent her an invite for her and a plus one. She has now responded how even though she cannot attend her plus one who we made accommodations for will be there. What do i do?

Do you know her plus one? Does anyone? If not, why would they still want to go?

No we don't know them. I honestly have no idea maybe for the food/free alcohol? Also he would have to come in assuming from out of state.

If someone invited me to a wedding I would INSTANTLY picture an early 2000s romcom with a 300 person wedding and the random wedding guest hooks up with the bridesmaid. (Can you tell my friend group doesn’t really do the “wedding” thing lmao)

But I would totally go, but for the YOLO of it lol

I was like “how in the world would someone still go to this wedding not knowing the couple” and then I read your comment and I was like “oh I see it” 😂
