Retirement party invitations
We are throwing a retirement party for my mother, who spent 30 years as a nurse for the same practice. We're planning a pretty casual party, 4pm on a Saturday at a hall. I'm struggling with how to address her coworkers' invitations. I don't actually care if they bring spouses, but I don't know spouses' names to include on the invitations. And I suspect they may even feel more comfortable dropping by solo so wouldn't want them to feel obligated to bring a spouse. What's the right way to handle this?
