Invite to someone who already said they can't come?

We sent the save the dates out a couple weeks ago. A couple people already told us they can't come. Should I still send them an invite in case their plans change? I feel if I do it looks like we're doing it for a gift, which we're not. I also feel that if I don't send it and their plans change, they're left out. I'm not using a B list, so there isn't anyone else I will send an invite too.

    I would send them an invitation anyway, just in case their plans do change. Invitations are not subpoenas. Since nothing in your invitation should mentions gifts or your registry, it's not a direct solicitation for gifts either.

    Since you sent an STD, you must follow it with an invitation. If someone erroneously interprets it as a gift grab, that's their problem.

    Definitely still send the invite. If you're nervous about how they would perceive it, just send a note or follow up text saying something like, "Wanted to send you the invitation just in case your plans change. Wishful thinking!"

    Thank you, because once people told me they weren't able to come I figured why waste money on the invite, now I know to send it anyway.
