I had a discussion yesterday with my MOH about who I want invited to my bridal shower and we hit a dilemma.

We are keeping our wedding relatively small due to budget reasons and we have a large number of family from both sides that are out of town. This means that a lot of the people that are local that I would like to invite, just are not going to get invited. At the same time, since the majority of the guests that are invited are out of town, I don't feel that I can invite them to my bridal shower as it is too much to ask them to travel so far twice in a couple of months. Now I'm stuck choosing between having a pretty empty shower or inviting people that won't be invited to the wedding.

What do I do?

    I agree with Cydney and Sara you CAN but just tell them ahead of time you dont have to bring a gift and let them know the situation of why they cant be at the wedding
