I live out of state. How do I invite my friends and family with out making them feel pressured into coming and buying a gift?
thank you

Hi Corie,

Thank you for your etiquette question. Baby shower invitations can help your close family and friends feel like they are part of the celebration. But the invitation can look like an invitation for a gift. It all depends on your relationship with them and how close you are.

I recently answered a similar question. Perhaps it might also help you in your situation. You can read about long distance baby shower invitations here

Best of luck with the baby shower and the new baby on the way!
