One of my exs is dating an acquaintance who is bestfriends with one of my long time friends. They started dating just a few months after I started dating my boyfriend. I go on a girls night out with my long time friend and the acquaintance once a month. They've been dating for about two years, only a few months less than my boyfriend and I.
I will probably invite both to my wedding. We had a very short relationship because I think he's a bit controlling and strange in a "can't put my finger on it" kind of way. It will be wierd though because he's seen me naked and has a huge ego about himself. I doubt my boyfriend and he will talk. I don't plan on interducing the two. My worst nightmare, and I'm not saying this will happen, is that my ex would mention something to the effect that "I dated her first" or that the acquaintance and the ex would talk trash about my wedding or reception. I've never been in a fight in my life, but that would do it.
In actuality though neither will probably come. Either they will get married first and be on their honeymoon or they just won't come. I never really liked the acquaintance even before she started dating my ex, first she took my bestfriend away then starting dating my ex boyfriend. I think the feeling is probably mutual.

Only if the ex was already remarried,then you know for sure there are no lingering feelings .I seriously doubt if your ex was remarried that their new spouse would want to go to the wedding anyway.I say just skip the invitation all together.I'd hate to be invited to the wedding of someone I still felt any kind of love for.

Depends on the ex in question. I have a few that are like my brothers now and if my fiance wasn't against it I'd probably invite one of them to the ceremony. Just to invite one to the wedding to invite one I wouldn't do.

If there is bad blood between the ex, i would not, as that is calling for a "recipe for disaster". You want your wedding to be a fun, and memorable day - not a disaster, and inviting an ex is asking for it.

If you have kids together and you are on friendly terms because of them, then I can see it. I think it would show the kids that the two of you are on the same page and you are both okay with it. Sometimes when a child's parent gets remarried they feel like you are trying to replace their other parent. If their other parent is there then they know that the family is just expanding and no one is being replaced.
If you don't have kids together then I don't see a reason to have them at your wedding, in fact if you don't have kids together I don't see any reason to stay on good terms with the ex.

If my husband invited his ex-wife to the wedding then I would call it off I don't like her that much and my day would mess no F***ed up that would not fly after all she has done nothing but harass me and much more. but he even said that if she were closer then he would have liked to invite her and I told him over my dead body it would never happen

it all depends if you have children, if you do and they are apart of the wedding and both of you are on really good talking terms then yes, if not no way as he may still have feelings for you and it may hurt him, I would say it all depends on how well you too get along and if you excepted the fact that you too are better off being friends, and most of all you may want to ask you future husband how he feels as it may make him feel uncomfortable and that is not a good start to the marriage as things may pop up during you marriage such as your husband questioning why you too are still hanging out.

I'm getting married in July and I have invited my ex. My fiance thinks its weird that I keep in touch with ex boyfriends but is ok about it. They have met before and got on well. If you're fiance is dead against it then definitely don't.

I did invite my ex and his ex to my wedding, it was horrible. Do not do it again.

I probably wouldn't. Although, if we shared children, and they wanted him there, I may let him attend some of the reception, definitely not the wedding. Or ask the children to see him another day, as this is my (our) new day to begin a new life.
The more I think about it, no.
