Hello ladies, I have a bridal shower question. My Maid of Honor and most of my bridesmaids live in Columbus, and my sister (another bridesmaid) and my and fiance's family live in Cincinnati (about two hours apart). My MOH is hosting a shower for me in Columbus that's going to be mostly friends (we're going bar-hopping afterwards so its kind of a combined bridal shower and bach. party) and my sister will be hosting a shower for me in Cinci that will be mostly family.
I'd like to invite some people to both showers (i.e. FMIL, cousins, aunts, etc.) and there's a good chance that they'll attend both. But, especially with repeat guests, I don't want gifts! Is there any tactful way for my MOH and sister to state this on their invitations? Should I just invite these girls to one shower? Thanks!
