Is it a requirement to invite god parents to wedding?
There is no requirement to invite any single person to a wedding except the bride, the groom and the officiating authority. However, there are strong social expectations that certain people will be invited (parents of the wedding couple, etc.). Whether or not the godparents would expect to be invited depends mostly on how involved the godparents were in the person's life. If the godparents were like second parents (spent a lot of time with the child, babysat, took them to events, was present at major events like graduations, etc.) then it would be quite insulting to not invite them. However, if the godparents were present for the ceremony but otherwise not involved in the child's life, then it is socially acceptable in most circles to not invite the godparents. There may be some negative reaction from others involved in planning the wedding - parents, most likely, who expect their child to honor the absentee godparents.
