Should I send wedding shower invites to co-workers who are hosting a seperate shower for me??

My coworkers have said that they want to host a separate shower for me, it would just be us girls.  No date has been set and nothing is set in stone, just brought up in conversation.  My actual shower is May 18th, so should I send them invitations to this shower knowing that they want to have one of their own?  I don't want any feelings to be hurt for NOT sending invitations, but I also don't want them to feel like I expect them to come to my shower AND host a shower on top of that... what should I do?????

  • Are they invited to your wedding? If so, and if this work shower is only theoretical at this point in time, I would add them to your shower invite list. If they're not invited to the wedding, no invite.

  • They are invited to the wedding, correct?  Or is the work shower just a nice thing some co workers are doing for you?  If they are indeed wedding guests, it would not hurt to include an invite to the bridal shower. They can choose to go or not and still throw you another party if they choose to.  It is kinda like bridesmaids--they are typically invited to multiple showers but may not attend them all or bring a gift to all of them.  Attendance would not be "required" anyway, so an invite would not hurt.  No one ever expects they have to go to anything, so I am sure your friends would know you are not expecting them to go and give you presents and also throw you a separate party. But it is a nice gesture to give them the option.  If you are super concerned talk it over with them.
