This answer may seem pretty obvious. However, I wanted to confirm. I work at a school with a wonderful staff. My department head has been nice enough to offer to throw me a bridal shower. Unfortunately, I did not have her on my guest list for the wedding. My mom says that since she made that offer, it would be rude to not invite her to the wedding. I say that a bridal shower at work does not obligate me. Please give me some insight, I don't want to appear to be a "bratty bride" or "bridezilla".

This has been addressed before, however, you;re correct. A work place shower is the only type of pre-wedding event where guests do not also need to be invited to the wedding. As long as the shower is being held at the office and all guests are co-workers you can graciously accept.

I agree. The workplace shower is in a class by itself. Just send heart felt thank you notes to those involved and a special one for the host. Rebecca Black, Etiquette Now
