Inviting FH's friends g'fs to the Shower???

So FH has some friends that have girlfriends/wives. We hang out a decent amount in a group/dinners and I am friendly with them. However, I do not hang out with them individually and I am not close with them. Does anyone else have a situation like this and are you going to invite them to the shower? Thanks in advance.

I have 2 girls like that, but i feel close to them....just cause i see them all of the time.

And the one girl just got married and she invited me to her bridal shower.

Thanks for the reply. I mean we hang out a lot. I talk to them when we are out, we go to dinners in a group....so I guess it's kind of similar...I just dont consider them my good friends that I would call up and tell them what happened to me at work or something lol.

I have the same situation.. I am inviting them because the guys work with FH and they are coming to the wedding. I dont want to offend anyone and if they feel like uncomfortable they dont have to come

For my shower my mom didn't invite women who were guest of other ppl unless they were family. DH's friends gf's or wives did not come to the shower. My mom did invite BIL's gf who was miserable the entire time, and didn't hide it one bit. They are broken up now, and she is in some of the pics. I don't think you have to invite them.

I had a very similar situation and my mom and MOH didn't invite them just because I wasn't all that close with them. I feel like the bridal shower is really for people you are close to, people you see regularly, family and close friends. JMO though.

I was invited to the showers of FH's friends. I had a wonderful time and it made me feel honored that they took me seriously (we weren't engaged yet). I would invite them. I'm inviting 80% of the women invited to the wedding anyway.

Did you like the fact that you were invited to the shower? I am so torn on what to do. Thanks!

I'll be inviting FH's closest friends wives/gf's (there's about 5 or 6)...even though we mainly hang out in groups/double dates, I would absolutely want them there.

I'd invite any girls you are close to. And I'd invite FH's best friends' wives/gfs. As for just friends - they just come to the wedding.

I've only met a few of FH's work friends' wives, and on one or two occasions...his out of work friends either don't have gfs, or I've never met them. My mother wants to invite every femle invited to the wedding, but I really don't feel comfortable with that, because I don't know them and I'd feel weird.

Yea that makes sense. Like we see each other when we all hang out together...and do couple dinners sometimes, etc. But I wouldnt call them up and be like...they you want to go to the mall ? lol ya know what i mean?

Yes....I am inviting my FHs friends wives/girlfriends. We always talk when we do go out as a group and even though I don't hang out with them on my own, I am still going to extend the invite
