First of all, I know I am not in charge of planning either of the events, but I do need to come up with the guest list.
I have a few friends that I want to invite to the bachelorette but not the bridal shower (friends that are not in my bridal party). I just want to make sure this is acceptable etiquette.
Four of the guests are couples and I am much closer to their male counterparts. We are not having males at the shower but I am okay with having males at the bachelorette. I do not consider the females of these two couples to be close friends, which is why I wasn't going to invite them to the shower.
The other is a female friend that I am fairly close with but not close enough to make it into the bridal party, if that makes sense. She would not know anyone at the shower and so I wasn't going to invite her to it for that reason.
Another question I have- do I need to invite spouses/ fiancés/ girlfriends of the groomsmen to the shower?
Thanks everyone!
