Last Minute Baby Shower

So, it 2:30 in the morning and I CAN'T get back to sleep. Why? Well, a friend at church offered to throw me a baby shower. The problem is that she just found out that she is going to have to travel for the next two months for work and the shower has been moved up to THIS Friday. We handed out invitations at church on Sunday, but I'm worried that no one will come because they'll forget and it's such short notice and well... I don't really have many friends at church. My dear sweet Relief Society president HAND WROTE about 50 little pink invites! :(

I have this huge guilt that she's doing all of this when she has so much on her plate already with this trip coming up. I'm not worried about presents. I'm just worried that she will go through all of this trouble for nothing. (She even mentioned a previous shower that she threw that no one came to and how upsetting it was..) I'd actually just love the opportunity to make some new friends at church and get some good baby advice.

So here's the question... Would it be tacky to create a Facebook event for the shower or make an announcement on the Relief Society Facebook group I'm part of for my ward to remind/let people know people about it? (My friend isn't on Facebook.) OR should I just relax and not worry about it?
