     inviting friends of groom's mother to bridal shower  

Friends of the grooms' mom are giving a shower.Is it appropriate to ask new friends/ co-workers, etc. of groom's mother to the shower/wedding when they know neither the groom or the out -of -town bride?

Dear Query,

In a word, no. The guests should be close friends and family of the bride. When people are spread very far apart, some families (even though family should not host) will host a shower for the bride to get to know the groom's family. But, these people would still know the groom and they are family. This is usually a cultural tradition.

So in this case, it is not the best thing to do.

Best wishes,

Plus...only those invited to the wedding should be invited to the bridal shower.
