Dw Invites

[hdfrost14]

Hello,

 

I have a bit of a problem.. and not the slightest clue what to do! I have a DW on Feb. 21st, 2014!! Which i know is too late to send out formal invites.. But we had to change our date earlier due to a sister's surprise pregnancy.. Anyways.. we did things a little backwards as I focused on the main people who needed to be at the wedding. I basically invited by giving out the link to my wedding website and calling.. but never got invites out! Those who are going have their flights and everything.

 

We are planning on doing an informal reception in June for the friends and family who couldnt go. My problem is that I wanted to try to have a bridal shower. But it seems odd to send invites for the shower to people who didnt get a formal invite to the wedding.. Also, some who i'd like to invite to the shower were friends who we'd like to invite to the summer reception but didnt get info for the wedding..

 

I dont know what to do! I'm not set-up to do simple little invites on my own nor do i have any software or clue how to do so.. Paying for 30 invites online seems to cost almost the same as 100 which I dont need.. I mostly dont know what to do about sending bridal shower invites w/o wedding invites.. 

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks in advance!

I believe that etiquette says you must invite anyone to the wedding who was invited to the bridal shower.  Otherwise is appears gift grabby.  Are you throwing your own bridal shower?
