     Do We Send Wedding Invitations to Out of State Guests  

My son from Ohio is marrying a lovely girl from Alabama where they will be married. How do I handle a bridal shower and invitations to the wedding. Do we invite friends and relatives knowing they won't be able to attend the wedding? How do I handle a bridal shower which the bride will be able to come to Ohio for? Usually whoever you invite to the shower should be invited to the wedding. I need quick help because they are asking for an invitation list!!

Are they asking for an invitation list for the wedding or for the shower or both?

I am going to move this to the proper category.

Only those close to the couple should be invited to either. So, if they are asking for a list of guests, keep this in mind and allow the guests to decide if they would like to attend.

You shouldn't be involved in the planning or hosting of a shower. If a friend of theirs who lives close to you wishes to host and you are asked for names, this is fine. But, this should be a small intimate affair, so not too many names. They shouldn't be involved in the planning or hosting either. Hopefully it is the host of the shower asking for names.
