    Or is it okay to give them one as a group? I'm not sure what etiquette is on this one.

    I have the same amount of coworkers that I'm inviting and they each are getting their own invite.

    Everyone should get their own invite. And I would snail mail them to their houses like the rest of your guests. For me, this is more because I have a medium-to-large office and don't need everyone thinking they are invited.

    Each individual or couple should get their own invite. Otherwise, can you imagine what the RSVP card will look like? ;)

    No, but really. Each adult you invite should have an invitation sent to their home. But I suppose you could distribute them at work, too.

    each person should get their own invite.

    and if you are inviting one person only (ie not their spouse/guest) i suggest you explain it as when one of the ladies in my office got married and invited coworkers without partners (numbers issues) i had people coming to my door asking me about the invitiation as they didnt want to ask the bride

    You should give everyone their own invite.  Try to get their home address and mail it to them instead of handing it to them at work.

    OK so Miss Manners says everyone should get thier own invite. On the other hand in many corporate cultures it is fine to post an invite and a note.."Join us an bring your partner'...make sure they know if you need an RSVP.  Honeslty, it's not a big deal to give them each an invite unless your are dong a 5 star wedding. One invite and a note on the company bullentin board is fine.

    I only work with about 15 other people, so I am just going to post one invite on the information board. That's what everyone else does, and I am no going to spend another 30 or 40 bucks on invites for my co-workers. = )

    Every couple should receive and individual invitation. I have done this for the 6 co-workers that I invited.

    I agree with kazoochair and His Barista. If it's a norm in your office, it won't hurt posting it on the bulletin board with a note. (that's IF you don't mind inviting everyone). It would save on invitation and postage big time.

    Otherwise, each couple/address gets their own invite.
