Here's the situation: my co-workers were on my "plan b" list. We got our regular RSVP's back and it turns out we can invite my co-workers. It's a couple weeks away from the wedding, and I don't have any of their addresses. By the time I get them, mail them, and get them back it will practically be time for the wedding. I was just wondering if instead I could hand out all the invitations at our daily meeting at work. What do you think? Is handing out okay in this situation or should I mail them?BTW....only two of them are listed in the phone book so it's going to be time-consuming to visit each person at their desk and write down their address....I'm not trying to sound like it's a bother, it just sounds so much more practical to just hand them out.

It may not be ideal by the Emily Post style of etiquette, but I think they'd appreciate getting the information directly, so they can consider their plans and get back to you as fast as possible. Sometimes efficiency can trump formalities.

traditionally they are meant to be mailed but due to lack of time and addresses i think handing them out if just as nice.as long as you envelope them and do them up like you have the others.

Proper etiquette says to mail them. It is more formal and special. Ask your bridesmaid to get the addresses, that is what she is there for.

In this situation you better hand them to them...They well be grateful to be invited you would hope...You need to know ASAP if they are going and not on the day of the wedding.

Although mailing them may be classier you should hand them out because which is worse them not getting it or your pride?
