I have someone planning both parties for me. I would like to invite some people that are not invited to the wedding. I reconnected or met them recently and can’t afford to invite them, unless a certain number of people cancel.
Can I explain to them that they are not invited to the wedding and why and that I would love it if they came to the other events like a bachelorette party or bridal shower?
Thanks
Inessa!

No, it would be very rude.
Inviting them to the shower and not the wedding says, "Please buy me stuff even though I don't consider you a close enough friend to get invited to my wedding."
Inviting them to the bachelorette party and not the wedding says, "Please come spend money on me to celebrate getting married in a few days. You know, when you won't be there."
I agree with everyone above! DO NOT DO THAT!

You won't find that on the <u>etiquette</u> board.
