| That does seem very odd, maybe your included on your moms invite? Or maybe it was a surprise shower? If not that really rude and I personally would not feel obligated to attend the shower.

| My shower is in mid-June, but my wedding invites will not be sent to local guests until end of June. Everyone invited to the shower WILL be invited to the wedding. Is it rude or tacky to have the shower *before* the wedding invites go out?

This happened to me a while ago. My cousin was getting married and his fiance invited me to the shower but I wasn't invited to their wedding....I was pissed! I still remember it and that was probably 12 years ago.....hopefully they know enough about etiquette that you will be invited to the wedding....my cousin apparently didn't!
Do I sound bitter??? LOL

| Yes-I think this is very strange! It's obvious they may just be looking out for gifts. There is no way I would invite someone to my shower who isn't invited to my wedding ceremony & reception! It's like a slap in the face-"You are good enough for my shower...because I'll get a gift...but you AREN'T good enough for my wedding" If the wedding is only 1 month away, you should have gotten the invitation by now. Unless it got lost in the mail?!

I think it's sad that gifts are THAT important to some people. I'm always amazed at how much some people focus on presents when it comes to their wedding. I'd much rather focus on my FH!

I'm just really surprised at it.. if she ahd invited my parent's to her wedding, it would've been fine.. but I dont' think any of us are.

This may seem wierd, but until I joined this board I had no idea that according to etiquette only people invited to the wedding were invited to the shower. In my experience, a shower has always been a party to get together with people who wouldn't be invited to or couldn't make it to the wedding, but who still are happy for the couple and want to celebrate with them. Although why this translated to just women celebrating with just the bride I still don't quite understand
