An invited guest to a wedding shower responded they would be attending and also her daughters. The daughters were not invited to the shower nor will they be invited to the wedding. How does someone respond to the invited person to let them know the daughters are not invited? I am looking for specific phrases/words to use. The problem is not that they will be at the shower, but that they are not invited to the wedding due to size restrictions so we did not ivite them to the shower either, I do not want them to expect a wedding invitation. It is not a relative, but a parent's friend that is invited and she is adding her two older teen daughters.
Is there a tactful way to let her know the daughters were not invited, they can come, but will not be invited to the wedding?
I suppose the host could call and explain the issue, that due to space limitations her daughters are not invited to the wedding. So, if she still wants to bring her daughters and it isn't an issue with the host, then there isn't a problem.
