Is he in the wedding? Or just attending? I'd try to be flexible and encourage him to go if he was in the wedding or if it was a best friend/family member. If not, I'd err on the more conservative side and ask him not to. I delivered our DS at 34 weeks so I'd be nervous about delivering earlier with twins.

Hmmm, I think he could go but hope you have lots of help and support around because labour aside, at 30 weeks you might be finding it tough to get around etc and might need help at home.

I'd think it's fine. As long as you're not going and you have people around, sure.

I would book a ticket for him but get travel insurance so that he can make the final decision once it gets closer. There's no predicting PTL, you can be fine one day and go into labor the next with no warning signs.
I know that I was anxious enough during my pregnancy that I would not have wanted my DH to go on a trip like that. I didn't even want him to drive to NJ to play golf!
I think it's really going to come down to how you feel once you get closer. Physically, I was fine, still walking the dog and able to get around on public transportation but mentally, I would have freaked out not having him home.

Since he's in the wedding party I would definitely want him to attend if at all possible. I would have him book on Southwest since you get a full credit for the amount if you cancel up to 10 minutes before the flight, and just make sure you let the groom know that there is always the possibilty he will have to bow out if your risk of pre term labor goes up.

@bluestriped bee: you are very sweet to think if me. I am doing much better, just feeling grateful for DD and hoping baby boy can hang in there and go the distance.

DH had to fly home for a funeral when I was about 28 or 29 weeks. I was fine by myself, but I was definitely anxious until he got home in case something were to happen. I just used the few days to rest as much as possible and not strain myself.

Do you have kids already? If not, you could make the decision closer to the date, as others have said. But if I had kids at home, I would have a problem with him going!

I'd be okay with him going. And be jealous that I couldn't go!

As long as I was't having any complications I would be fine with it! I am one who loves my solo time though - My hubby even went on backcountry hiking trips (2-3 days with no communication) in the 3rd tri with both of my pregnancies (and I had PIH and was off work with my first)

@bluestriped bee: I thought I was perfectly fine. I was walking, working, my cervix was closed tight no problems. All my drs kept commenting on how well i was carrying the babies and i felt good about it. 29 weeks 1 day just went into labor. They stopped it and i ended up delivering babies at 30 weeks exactly. So with other twin mamas that were fine at 30 i was the one that is the possibility of ptl. So definitely get travel insurance if u buy a ticket for him

I didnt have twins but I tend to deliver early. DS was 34 weeks exactly and DD was 37 weeks exactly. I think it depends how your pregnancy is going. I wouldn't want him traveling past 30 weeks.
