inviting co-workers to wedding

If I am going to invite coworkers to the wedding, is it okay to only invite them, or do I need to invite their husbands, wives, etc as well? I have never met there significant others so I'm not sure what to do. I have a small office, but if I invite the 20  people from the office plus their sig others that will put me over the guest list.  I know I dont have to invite them at all, but there a couple people I am close with and i think i would be awkward to only invite a few people...Suggestions?

    Yes, you have to invite SOs.

    I work in a small office as well,  but I didn't feel obligated to invite everyone.  I invited only those people who I had a relationship with outside of work or who I would wish to maintain a relationship with if either of us changed jobs.

    I would try to limit your list in that way, but you can't exclude SOs.

    You can invite whoever you want.  You don't need to invite a co-workers spouse.  Granted they may not come if you don't, but then again if that stops them from coming to your wedding they are coming for the wrong reasons IMO.

    etiquette EVERYWHERE will tell you that if you invite one married individual, their spouse comes too.  Why? Because when you become married you become a social unit.  Chances are if you don't invite the spouse, the coworker won't come.
