    [QUOTE]The host for the bridal shower should send them to their house.  You should send the STD and the invitation to their house.  Include their SO's name on the invitation.  So if someone has a new boyfriend and you don't know his full name, find out. Keep wedding talk at work to a minimum or non-existent.

  • Yes, don't do wedding talk at work-- it has the potential to save so much headache. Ask your coworkers discreetly for their addresses and then mail them what you need to.

  • The host for the bridal shower will be the one sending out the invitations for that since you don't host your own shower.  The host would send the invitations to peoples' houses.  You don't need to hand the invitations out at work.

    Also, I would keep the wedding talk at work to a minimum.  That way, people won't start assuming they are invited if they aren't.  As PP said, just ask the co-workers discreetly for their addresses that you want to invite.  Don't hand out the invitations at work.  That will just ask for trouble because inevitably people who are not invited will see them, and it could cause hurt feelings.
