why not have a little party for her if she's a friend? It doesn't have to be a lot of fancy gifts, just a bunch of co-workers celebrating her upcoming wedding & having drinks, right?

If you and she are friends, then maybe a nice gesture would be to plan a dinner or small party after work to celebrate her happiness. Maybe in lieu of gifts, everyone might consider giving a small monitary gift to put together for a larger gift..maybe money they could spend while on their honeymoon. If they do not need anything, talk to everyone about making a donation to a charity in the new couple's honor. Bottom line, is your relationship with this person and how she is acting about her upcoming nuptuals. Hopefully the third time will be the charm for her. Wish her well, but don't feel obligated to throw the shower if you and she are not friends. Good luck!

Don't feel obligated, but if you like her why not? I had a second bridal shower when I got married to my current husband because I had different friends, and my life was at a different point.

It's hard to say without knowing the circumstances but certainly a get-together to give her a happy send off is a great idea. Maybe Third Time's the Charm!!

I would say no, you could have a cake and maybe a card and a small group gift (optional) to say congrats-but not a whole shower. The reason for the shower is to help the bride and groom prepare for their life together and help provide for them things they need but don't have already. I'd say after being married twice already-she has what she needs!

I wouldnt give her a bridal shower I would however arrange a night out for you and the gals....bring a gift if you want but certainley dont make it any kind of formal event...a night out on the town is a good gift after 3 marriages.

i think it'd be a nice thing to do. not unless she just gets married and divorced for no real reason... otherwise, her choices have been legitimate and i'm sure she hopes that this is the last time. she shouldn't expect it either. so, i would do it considering the latter two comments that i made are true... it will make her feel very special.

If you have thrown a bridal shower already for her 2nd or 1st marriage, then no.
If no shower was offered for her previous marriages, then yes, go ahead and throw her one.
Good luck

It depends on alot of things...is this normal office practice? do you like her? how long since her last wedding? If it was 2 years ago, probably not, but you should still acknowledge her wedding as a group. If it's been quite a few years, then I still think it would be appropriate.

look up etiquette online, i'm pretty sure its no. you could all just chip in for a giftcertificate, but now bridal shower necessary.
