Close friends/family? Who customarily throws the shower?

However, I'm not sure who is customarily invited either.

My co-workers are throwing a shower for me and have invited a ton of people from work who were not invited to the wedding...is this tacky? Or is the co-worker shower generally exempt from this "rule"?

If it's on a weekend in a different location- I think that's tacky. We usually do group showers for babies and weddings that are very simple. We use the school cafeteria or library, get an appropriate cake (or cakes) and collect from each staff member to purchase a few large gifts from their registry. I think we all realize that we won't all be invited to all weddings that take place among our staff. It's just a nice for everyone to feel like they have a little part of it.

When I was 16 I was not invited to my sisters shower and I was the Maid of Honor.

The only exception would be if the woman is a guest of someone or if they are out of town guests. This is what we are more or less going by. Hope this helps.
