Bridal shower invitations

I am planning my friend's bridal shower and we are inviting a bunch of friends from her work. She doesn't have their home addresses so we are sending the invites to work. My question is do we send an individual invite to each person? I know for wedding invites everyone over 18 gets their own invite but it seems wired to send 13 invites to her work. However, it also seems wired to put 13 names on an invitation. I could use some input/advice.

    Yes everyone needs to get there own invitation. You need to be sending them to their own houses. She will need there addresses for the wedding anyways, it would make sense to get them now! Then you can send each individual person there own invite for the shower.

    Shower invites, just like the wedding invites your friend will be sending these folks eventually, should be sent to the guests' home addresses, not their work address.  She needs to get their home addresses anyway, because anyone invited to the shower MUST be invited to the wedding, and it's atrocious ettiquette to send wedding invitations to someone's work address.

    OP, I want to clear something up real quick. Since you are hosting a shower for non-work friends too and it's not at her work, all these co-workers need also to be invited to her wedding, and yes, you should get their home addresses.

    If it was a WORK shower, meaning the hostess was a co-worker, the whole shower was just co-workers and it was held at work, then not everyone needs a wedding invitation. I just wanted to make that distinction because people might have heard "work showers are the exception." What you're doing isn't a work shower, so just make sure any co-workers she wants to invite will also be at the wedding.

    I aagree with summer bride. if she doesn't have their addresses for the shower, that means she doesn't have their addresses for the wedding. And she'll need those if she is inviting them to the wedding. If she isn't inviting them to the wedding, they shouldn't be invited to the shower, either.
