Yeah, I'm having invites sent to lots of peeps that I know wont make it, because its cute, and also serves as an "I'm pregnant" announcement in case they dont already know
I only have 3 friends, the local one offered to throw me a shower (hurray!), but I want to invite the other two, even though I'm nearly positive they can't come. I hope they understand it's not an invitation to send something, but an invitation to include them. I wish they could come!
If they are truly GOOD friends who would 'of course' be there if theylived local, yes, I'd still invite them. I had a couple friends like that. But- I still believe people should use caution when inviting OOT people. Don't invite every distant relative who you never see just to "include" them. Keep the event in perspective!

I invite my best friend (who lives 8 hours away) to every event I have. She loves seeing the invite and sometimes is able to come. She works every week-end so doesn't get here often...but when she comes it is a treat. Maybe your friends will come together!
