Not sure about Canadian etiquette, but in the States, I've gotten the impression that the bride gives her MOH a guest list, and the shower/bachelorette guests should primarily come from within that list.
That said, if you're keeping the wedding small, a Hen Party might be a nice way to allow some ladies who aren't coming to the wedding to celebrate with you - just make sure that when your friend invites them, she expresses it clearly.

For those who aren't familiar with it it is like a shower or bachlorette party ;)
So, my MOH has been saying that when we finally set the date, she wants to have a hen party for me. Sure, that's all well and good but I am very much a reclusive and I truly don't have many friends. The wedding itself has been limited to immediate family only so no one that I could invite to the hen party would be invited to the actual wedding.
I am assuming that it is ignorant to invite someone to a hen party but not to the wedding? I am pretty easy going about that kind of stuff personally so I wouldn't be offended and would see it as a way to celebrate my friends marriage even though I am not invited to the wedding. Not everyone will feel that way though. I am at a loss for what to do. Just skip the hen party altogether? Explain to people that we are having a private ceremony?
How do I deal with this?
