  • On a general basis no, you do not invite out of town guests to a wedding shower if they live a fair ways away because it is just a half day event. They will bring you their wedding gift for you and your husband.

When the wedding is immediate family only can others not attending be invited to a shower?

Traditionally if the immediate family is invited to the wedding itself, but the reception is at a hall or a parent's home then guests should be invited then that is the only time you should invite others to a wedding shower. If the wedding is small with no other guests other than the immediate family then either the mother and father of the bride or the groom's parents could have a small reception at their home and those guests should then receive an invitation (can make the invitations online) or buy less traditional invitations at card shops and then invite certain relatives if you so choose. However, as long as other relatives and friends understand the reasoning for your wedding plans then you could get away with a wedding shower and wedding gifts and that is up to the bride and her mother.


When did it become proper to invite someone to a wedding shower and yet not invite them to the wedding?

It's not in most cases. Destination weddings may be an exception, but to invite someone to your shower and not your wedding is a big no no.


Should you have a wedding shower for a couple that is having a private ceremony?

It is proper etiquette to only invite people to the shower who will also be invited to the wedding. If the couple is having a private ceremony with only family, then only invite family to the shower. If they are eloping and not inviting anyone, it would be safest not to have a shower because those at the shower would be expecting a wedding invitation.


Can you invite guests to bridal shower if they are not invited to the wedding due to venue constraints?

You can, of course, but a great deal of tact will be required since it's only human nature for those not invited to the wedding to wonder how you reached the decision to invite others and not them.On the other hand, there could be resentment if you invite friends to neither the shower nor the wedding!One idea might be to make it a special shower, maybe with champagne and good finger food, and explain privately to each person not invited to the wedding how bad you feel at not being able to fit everybody in, but there simply isn't room.Perhaps you could give them, privately again, a small gift - a keepsake - of the wedding and suggest that once you're settled following the honeymoon, you'll give a simple, intimate party just for them. Do this before the wedding, otherwise it might appear to some that you feel they're upset and are simply trying to pacify them.


Is it appropriate for a bride to invite someone to her bridal shower but not to her wedding when your best friends daughter is going to Vegas and only inviting a select few to the event.?

Yes, it is appropriate for a bride to invite guests to her bridal shower but not the wedding which is being held in Vegas because the bride would realize that most guests may not be able to afford the trip to Vegas or they do not have the time. A shower gift would be appropriate and perhaps when the bride and groom get back from their wedding in Vegas they may have a small reception where the rest of their family and friends can attend once they are home from their honeymoon. Whether there is an event or not a wedding gift is etiquette in this particular scenario.

Can you help me send out these wedding shower invitations?

Bridal shower invitations are an essential part of every wedding. These invitations can be sent out by the companies who made the invitations. Usually, couples custom order invitations with a company and that specific company helps them send these invitations out. One should check out a bridal shop or registry and ask if the invitations were self made.


She went to your bridal shower should they go to the wedding?

* Your invitations should have included her, but it could be an oversight. Yes, you should send her a wedding invitation even though it's late. If she's good enough to be at your wedding shower and you accept her gift, then she should be good enough to come to the wedding. This lady has class! She came to the wedding shower and was happy for you and wouldn't embarrass you by asking if she could come to the wedding.
