Ladies, I have a conundrum! I don't have a lot of female friends in the town that I live in (or in general) and we are planning to go to TN for my Bachelorette party. Since I have so few girlfriends, I wanted to extend the invite to a couple of girls I've met through my bridesmaids that live where my bridesmaids live in SC and MS, so they wouldn't have to travel alone. So my dilemma is, is it okay to invite them to the bachelorette without inviting them to the wedding? I have met two of them multiple times, but only see them when I am in town visiting my friend (they are her friends where she lives in SC, so they don't live where I live and are only acquaintances). I am having a small wedding and my guest list is already maxed out with family. I would only expect them to pay for their own expenses and certainly don't expect any gifts.
Nice replies only, please! I am asking because I know I typically don't feel the way about invites that other people do. For example, being invited to an acquaintances bachelorette party, but not the wedding wouldn't bother me at all, but some people might feel different about it.
