A close stellar companion influences the formation of planets in the system. The occurrence of stellar companions and characteristics of the stars and planets in the system provide constraints on the formation processes. We present results from our high-resolution Lucky Imaging survey for binary exoplanet host stars, including the discovery of stellar companion candidates to the transiting planet hosts WASP-12 and HAT-P-8.
