Are you inviting OOT guests to your shower? I have many aunts and cousins that I think should be invited to my shower, but I know they wont come since they live so far away. I just thought it would be nice to invite them- but now I'm second guessing myself. I dont know if its pointless to invite them since they will definately not come.
I invited all aunts and cousins from OOt and I know they are not coming, but I also know that if I didnt invite them, some people might get offended.

Re: shower invite question
i think they should be invited... let them be the ones to decide if they can make it or not...
I was recently in my uncle's wedding... he lives in Fla... I wasn't invited to the shower... I was a bit insulted by that... it might have given me an excuse to make a mini vacation...

Yes we did but the only ones that are like a couple hours commute. Like I have aunts that live in Conneticut we invited them verses my aunts that live in Florida. You know the ones on Conn. are just a short drive away verses a plane ride away

Re: shower invite question
My mom verbally asked the close OOT relatives if they would like to get an invite to the shower - and that they were not obligated to come.....

My mom and sister did as a formality. Even thought they knew some wouldn't go, to keep the peace everyone got one. A lot of them actually came which was surprising!

They were invited to ward off any insults or drama.
