Send invitations to bridal party

I can't remember from the first time around...Do we send invitations to our bridal party??
My future step children will be standing up so do we send them invites as well? They are 12 and 17 yrs.old and the 17 year old will be bringing a guest.

Thank You
Nikki

Dear Sending Invitations,

We mail invitations to our bridal party and all family who is invited. However, if your step-children are living with you, you do not need to mail them an invitation. It would be nice if you did though. It is a wonderful keepsake. Plus, it is nice to have a real invitation stating that your stepson can bring a guest.

We usually mail invitations to those over 18 living in a household of those we have invited. So, your son is close to that age anyway.

Best wishes,
