Do i invites to the bridal shower if they’ve already rsvp no to the wedding?

Tilar Fifield, on May 26, 2019 at 9:09 AM Posted in Parties and Events 0 7
My mom and aunts are throwing me a bridal shower in July. I’ve been helping the with the guest list, really just with my friends and the bridal party. I have an old girlfriend from a previous job that we invited to the wedding but she rsvp no. Her and her husband have a vaca already planned out, she actually wrote a really sweet not on the back of the rsvp card explaining the situation. My question is do I still invite her to the shower even though she isn’t able to come to the wedding? Is that considered rude? Almost saying “hey I know you can’t come but still come to my shower and bring me a present”. Or is it rude to exclude her? I would love for her to be invited but I don’t know what is etiquette in this situation.

    Still invite her. She can choose if she wants to come.

    Still invite her. She might be able to make the shower and want to celebrate with you. It's not rude. Most people invited to the wedding get invited to the shower regardless of if they cant go to the wedding or not. Some people who can make the wedding wont make the shower. It's all good.

    I would still invite her. We have one friend who has already said she probably won't be able to come to the wedding but we invited her to the shower so she still has a chance to celebrate the wedding with us in some way.

    Completely agree with PPs - she seems regretful she can't attend your wedding. Inviting her to your bridal shower is a great opportunity to include her in the festivities!
