My workplace has a social committee who throw parties when people have a major life event wedding, baby or are leaving our location. They want to throw me and a colleague who is getting married a month after me a joint shower.
Now, etiquettewise, do I have to look at modifying my invites to include work people? I tried to back out of the shower, as I am inviting no one from work, but they seem dead set on it. It's not a gift shower, just a card and people hanging out or, others I have been to were at least . I don't want to just not show up, since others seem so excited, but I'm not sure what to do.
