I think the situation is kinda different if you KNOW everyone else WILL have dates. (and not in the high-school-over-exaggeration sense like "EVERYONE is going to be wearing this same dress!"). Like when you KNOW without a doubt that everyone else there will be in pairs, it kinda does suck to be the odd one out.
For example: this isn't a wedding situation, but I have 3 really good friends that my boyfriend & I regularly hang out with. 2 of those 3 are married to each other.
so when the 5 of us get together to do something ... like play pool for instance... it's kinda hard when you have an odd number.
another example: there was this girl i knew that had 2 female roommates - both of them had boyfriends and she did not. for halloween one couple was going to dress as Fred and Wilma, the other couple was going to dress as Barney & Betty... and they asked her if she would dress up as Dino
