Anyone else think this is tacky?
I was just invited to a bridal shower by the groom's aunt via facebook. I just think that's tacky. Could they not take the time to write out an invitation? Plus the wedding is in October and the shower is next Saturday. I won't be going 1) because I don't even know the bride and haven't spoken to the groom in a few years and 2) I feel that the invitation wasn't personal because it was a mass mailing on facebook. Am I wrong to think this?

Re: Anyone else think this is tacky?
I got invited to an engagement party on facebook. It was for someone in another state. Yeah, I was friends with them, but it was a very informal engagement party... just going bar-hopping, so it didn't seem that bad to me. Bridal showers, yeah, I'd think that was a bit tacky.
ETA: I did not go
I don't want to come across as mean or anything I just don't understand it. But like I said I don't know the bride and I haven't spoken to the groom in a really long time so I'm not going. We used to go to church together, but their family left several years ago. I do remember being introduced to the bride once but it was a hello nice to meet you and move on thing. I doubt she was the one to put me on the list.
Maybe it was an oversight or a last minute addition?
This. Yes, showers are pretty much about the gifts, but not "How many people can I possibly get to buy me stuff?"
I was invited to a destination wedding via facebook.
I saw that they mass invited about 150-200 people. Since it was a person from HS I barely knew anymore, I declined. I think they knew not alot of people would accept, but wanted to make sure anyone who wanted to come knew about it and was invited.
