I am inviting 3 people from work to my wedding, and they already know they are the only coworkers invited. We set our guest list about a year ago before booking our reception hall so, we have had to maintain a tight restraint on inviting new people due to the size of our venue.
So, of the 3 coworkers, one offered to throw me an office shower. I was hesitant at first, but then read a few posts that explained that an office shower is the only case where guests do no have to be invited to the wedding as well. So, I am ok with the shower.
How do I make sure that the other 10-15 coworkers know that they will not be invited to the wedding? I don't want them to think that they will be invited to the wedding simply because they are invited to the shower.
What is the best way to make this clear?
Thanks

Dear Caliann,
This really shouldn't be a problem as they wouldn't typically be invited. The work shower isn't anything like the traditional shower. It is usually very informal, maybe a group gift, and many times held during the lunch hour or during a long break.
Thanks, we just did an abbrevatied office baby shower, but there is obiously no "event" that takes place afterwards. I am just not going to worry about it, and hope people understand. Thanks for your advice.
