"You seem really fun and you are obviously easy to talk to.....I am going to go out on a limb here, but I have a wedding to go to and don't want to go solo...do you think you may want to go with me?"

Personally, from experience, I would find a way to invite him to something less formal. A walk along the beach; some talk you want to go and hear or for a drink or even to your place for a meal (if you trust your cooking). Weddings are stressful, family affairs and not the best place to try and invite someone you really don't know and that you are not even sure would be interested in you. If you were friends who regularly went drinking or meals together, even as part of a group of friends, that would be different.
Personally, unless he and you get it together before then, you will enjoy the wedding better just going on your own. Being at such an event with a stranger will be awkward, both for you and fellow guests.

I could be glib and say, "just ask him" but being a female, u have 2B careful not to put urself out there. So casually mention the wedding. Ofcourse he will be unto u and if he does not put u on the spot, he is mos def the 1 to go 4. And politely ask if he would like 2 go, one friend 2 another ofcourse.

OK. You obviously know him quite well by now. Come straight out with it. Explain the position and ask him if he would escort you. You have to be prepared for him to say no, for all sorts of reasons, but go for it. If you don't ask., you'll never know. He might do it as a gesture of friendship, and who knows where that might lead.. hope this helps.

Be not afraid. You cannot steal second base and keep your foot on first base.
You have nothing to lose by asking nicely if he wants to go to a wedding with you. You are not asking him to marry you. If he says no, it will not be the end of the world.
Be sure to ask in such a way as to not paint him into a corner. Give him a way to excuse himself gracefully.

The worst thing he can do is say no, the worst thing you can do is not ask him!
It takes a lot to ask someone out, but you have the perfect opportunity to ask him out.
there is no easy way of doing it, just make sure it's you that asks him, don't get someone else to ask for you.
just say something like, "I have this wedding to go to and I need to take a date/guest, would you like to come with me?"

Just say I have a wedding I need to go to on November 10th, do you think you'd be my escort?

Casually ask him out to lunch to see if he is interested in seeing you outside of class. If he says yes or shows interest then you should just bite the bullet and ask him after a week or so. Just try not to look desperate...

you might want to ask him how he would feel about going to a wedding he would not know anyone there but you. Sometimes that could be an very uncomfortable situation.

just ask. he can't read your mind any more than you can read his. so he says no. no big deal. you still have time to find another date and you might be surprised! maybe he WILL want to go with you. at the least, it'll give you a chance to talk with him, let him know you're interested and if nothing else, you might turn out to find a good friend in him. we can all use good friends! good luck!
