If you are a single woman...should you bring a male date? is it ok to bring a female friend? (might look unusual, i suppose...). is it ok to come by yourself? have you ever been to a wedding by yourself? I've never been to a wedding in USA...help!

When I was single I went to weddings alone - they're lots of fun, and there are always people to meet and be with. Don't bring a male date unless he's a quasi-serious boyfriend.
My oldest sister met her husband at a wedding!

Yes, you can bring a date.
Personally, I think you should bring a date of the opposite sex (unless you are gay). Personally, when I'm asking you to my wedding and I''m letting you bring a guest, I want it to be someone you can dance with. This means during the slow dances and such. Personally, I'm not inviting what ever female friend you wish to bring. My wedding is a formal event, not a time for you to invite a close friend (that's not a date type) to eat my food and drink my wine.
And yes, you can go to a wedding by yourself. You can meet some interesting people that way.

It really depends on the type of person you are but I'm a firm believer of bringing a person as you're guest that you're going to have fun with... even if it's a friend of the same sex. At a wedding, most brides and grooms want guest to have a good time so bring someone who you can dance with, chat with and have a good laugh.
If you don't mind going yourself, more power to you! I'm not the type of person to go without a guest (even if it means I have to put more money into a gift to cover the expense of a guest). I always envy people who are more independent and can strut into a party and have a good time with those around them!
Just do what you feel most comfortable with and have a good time!

I've also seen all 3 done. I say, do what makes you comfortable. If you are OK going alone, then do so. If you want to bring a male date or a female friend, that is OK too. Personally, I would try to find someone to go with. At least that way you have someone to hang out with and talk to at all times!

Well since the invitation says you and a guest, you can bring one. If you dont have anyone particular in mind then you dont have to. The option and invite is extended to you.
I was in a wedding and went without my fiance because he had to work and I would rather him work and earn that dough for me and the baby then struggle to change his schedule around which is hard to do. It wasnt too bad I was surrounded with friends, most who were dateless so it was pretty much girls having a good time.

Bring someone you know you will have fun with. Don't worry about looking unusual, many women go to weddings with a female friend.

If you are confortable going by yourself do so. I am sure a lot of other people will be going stag so you might meet someone there. It is also ok to bring a male companion

Bring whoever you want. If you are seeing someone, ask them to go. Or, if you are interested in someone, ask them to go and make it like a date. If neither of the above apply to you, bring another single female friend. You guys can make it a "girls day out" and look for some hot single men and just have fun!!

I would either go by myself or invite a date, but don't bring a friend along!!! The reason why it is addressed to you and guest is incase if you are dating someone, they didn't want that person to be singled out.
