Hello Beautiful Brides,
I am getting married on October, 22nd, 2022, so I have loads of time to plan my wedding but I wanted to know your thoughts on wedding showers. We are planning to get married on Martha's Vineyard, MA, keeping it small, 50-60 people but I am thinking that I want to have a wedding shower (covid depending of course). People will be coming from all over the country to the wedding but I wanted to have the shower in my home town in Michigan. Planning to invite the MOG and some of my fiancé's cousins but thats it. Then thinking to invite more of my local friends, a few friends who will be invited to the wedding and my mom's friends who might not be invited to the wedding itself since we are trying to keep that small.
What are your thoughts on this?
Is it bad form to invite someone to the shower and then not invite them to the wedding?
Also, how far in advance do you host the wedding shower?
Any and all advice on this is welcome and I look forward to it
