So I'm co-planning my mom's retirement party and I'm going to start on the invitations tonight. My mom wasn't sure if we should address the invitations to her coworkers' spouses as well. Obviously family friends will have both husband and wife names on them, but we weren't sure of the proper etiquette for coworkers.
Do you think I should include the coworkers' spouses on the invitation, even if my mom has never met them? Most of my aunt's coworkers came alone when she had her party a few years ago. The party is going to be an open-house type of party for a few hours in the afternoon.
