About my friend inviting an extra guest to a double date

So I have a friend who I’m friends with and my DH is friends with her DH. We do go out semi regularly as couples (think once every 3 months and for special occasions).

Tomorrow we’re going to a local event and originally it was supposed to be to be the 4 of us, but she ended up inviting a friend of hers. I’ve met her once, but she’s definitely not our “vibe” I’m slightly annoyed but not enough to tell her, but wondering if I’m being too precious

I wouldn't like that, it will change the whole dynamics.

Agree, I know a lot of mn is 'more the merrier' but this would irk me, maybe you should open the invitation up?

Out of interest what is not your vibe?

Depends on the event, fine dining for 4, then she's out of order for inviting a 5th person.
Local food market/festival kind of thing, I wouldnt be so fussed.
