    right now I am having 2 showers... we are having a wedding with about 160 guests. My maid of honor is throwing me a shower with just women and then my FI aunt is throwing us a couples shower for the family. This weekend a woman in my office called and said she would also like to throw us a shower....Now there are about 20 friends who are not invited to either showers but my wedding party is invited to either the family party or the girls one. Can I invite them again to this one? is that rude? All of our friends will be at this one and I would feel strange without all my best friends there. Can I tell them no gifts? Or should I just leave them off the list?

    Is this just a work shower? If it is, it is just for the ladies in your office, that is the norm. If it is a friend outside of work, then it could possibly be a combination of friends and workmates, but it shouldn't be held at your office.

    I think you should invite them and make it clear that you don't expect two gifts.

    Did the woman at work ask you for a guest list because if not, she might just be planning a small one for the mutual friends & coworkers between the 2 of you?
