Do I invite them?

Hi everyone, I'm new here so don't be mean.... Just kidding! I know this an internet board so you can be as mean as you want. So here's my question...

My maid of honor is planning my bridal shower and she is hosting it at her grandmothers house. Her mom is also going to do a lot of the planning and prep. My problem is that I've only met her grandma once and her mom maybe two times. I wasn't originally planning on inviting them to the wedding (the guest list is already packed).
So my question is, is it rude not to invite them? I was going to talk to my MOH about it but I don't know if even mentioning it is offensive.

Thanks

her mom probably knows she not invited (which is fine) and maybe likes planning? If thats the case i think it is totally okay. My mom made a lot of food for my friends shower, but she wasn't invited, and she knew it. She just loves cooking.

But ...does her mom think she is invited?

If you haven't met them, then I don't think they would expect to be invited.  It just seems like they're doing their daughter a favor.

My MOH's mom didn't help her out with stuff, but I somewhat know her (from helping plan MOH's wedding that I was a BM in) so she asked if she could come to the ceremony.  I would have never invited her to just the ceremony, but of course I said yes.

I would probably talk to my MOH about it.

My BM brought her mom (who I am not close with) to my shower because she was driving a good distance and wanted someone to drive w/ her. She asked me if it was okay for her mom to come and I said sure, but I didn't invite her mom to the wedding.

Thanks for the responses. I think I will talk to my MOH about it since it seems that it's not such a sticky subject to bring up.
