     Who to invite to bridal shower?  

I am the MOH for my best friend and I have offered to host the bridal shower.

The Bride and Groom really wanted to have sunset wedding on the ocean but were unable to find a location that met their needs and budget in their home state. They settled on having an intimate ceremony out of state that will consist of about 30-40 friends and family. Then the following weekend they will host a larger reception of about 100-120 for all who were not able to attend the ceremony.

When I send out the invitations for the bridal shower should I only invite those that were invited to the ceremony and not the reception?

Dear Lilpeach,

Only those invited to the wedding may be invited to a shower. So, it is best not to host this as there are few wedding guests. It wouldn't be polite to expect most guests to purchase two gifts for the couple--shower and wedding.

Best wishes,
