My cousin got married in Vegas and knew that I would not be able to attend. She still sent me an invitation. In other words: just because they can't attend doesn't mean they won't want the courtesy and thought of an invitation to a friend or relative's wedding. They may want to have one just to save if they're close friends with the bride and/or groom. All the same, it would be a good idea to ask the person if they would like an invitation to keep before sending it out.

The small card that comes with the wedding invitation you should write in it that you are sorry, but you can not attend.

Presumably, 25% of guests will accept the wedding invitation. However, being "out of town" does not necessarily imply that a guest cannot attend. Equally, just because the remaining 25% are presumably 'in town', that doesn't mean that they might not have other reasons which make them unable to attend.

If you once dated the best man/maid of honor or have a conflict with another close friend of theirs. The invite may not have come for this reason.

How to Create Personalized Wedding Invitations?
Ink Before you begin to create your personalized wedding invitations, you need to make sure that you have enough black ink and coloured ink. Your ink cartridges should be at least halfway full. It may be a good idea to get extra black and coloured ink cartridges just in case you run out. Basic Invitation Parts The typical parts of an invitation usually include directions to the wedding reception, a stamped return envelope, an RSVP, the wedding invitation itself, and the mailing envelope. Keep this in mind when you are trying to design your wedding invitation. The Design When you are thinking of a design for your wedding invitation, it is important that you think of everything. Remember that the design of your wedding invitation will be the thing that sets the tone of your entire wedding. It will give others an idea of what will be at your wedding. You can have as much fun as you want with your invitations. The paper texture, ribbons, and even the overlays will all contribute to the final appearance. Photos Many people have decided to use photos in wedding invitations. You can use a photo of the bride and groom at the front of the invitation. You can even add a photo of where the wedding will be held. Your choices are not limited in this area. If you cannot think of any original ideas, you can look through the Internet for clever and attractive wedding invitation ideas. RSVP When designing the layout for the RSVP, you need to remember that it is usually smaller than the actual wedding invitation. This means that you will have only a small amount of space to get creative. Although an RSVP is usually simple and straightforward, you have the freedom to do whatever you want. Afterthought If you do not know how to give directions to where your reception will be held, you can usually talk to the owner. In addition, you can visit any store that sells wedding invitation material for ideas. Visiting a store for ideas will usually give you the chance to figure out what your main theme will be. It usually helps to see and feel the material firsthand.
If you decline a wedding invitation do you still need to send a gift?
I don't think you should if you weren't invited to the wedding. In polite society, gifts are NOT to be expected. If you want to send a gift it is up to you whether you get an invitation or not.
