You really shouldn't formally invite them if they are not invited to the wedding BUT I know that people by word of mouth that night showed up at FH's 2nd bach party that night cause they were in the city. i think its ok if it happens kinda like that, ya know?

I invited people to my bparty that are not invited to the wedding...they were school friends that I met after I had started planning everything. When I asked them to come I told them that I was really happy to know them and I was sorry that we hadn't known each other before I started planning...that the guestlist was set and I couldn't invite them to the wedding but I wanted them to be a part of some part of it...they totally understood and are happy to go.
I didn't invite them to the shower, I felt like that would be taken as fishing for gifts...but I'm just asking them to come out and have a fun time with me.

Not unless they are aware beforehand that they're not invited to the wedding. Otherwise I would be really offended if I had to go and split dinner/drinks for someone who didn't care enough to invite me to the wedding... UNLESS I knew.

It's not the norm, but today, so much with etiquette has changed. As long as they know it's just the bach party they're invited to and they're not offended, I don't think it's bad. And boys are always less 'formal' than girls so I think it's ok.
Especially today, with the economy, a lot of people are keeping things smaller to save money, so let him celebrate with his friends!!!
