Etiquette on Inviting Co-Workers

Sherrisse13

I started a new job two years ago as a school administrator. I work in an office with 15 people. During my first year, one of the ladies in the office invited me to her daughters wedding. Another lady invited me to her daughters wedding this summer. Of the 15 people in my office, three of them just started in September. My fiance and I have big families. We would like our guest list to be between 200-220 people. Right now we have 300. Any suggestions on what we should do with regards to inviting my co-workers. Thanks

Don't invite them.  You are under no obligation to.

Don't invite them.Just because they felt compelled to invite you, doesn't mean you have to invite them.  If they mention something, just explain that you had to cut off your list because of family.

Don't invite them.  Just because some people want to invite everyone they've ever met to their wedding doesn't mean you have to do the same.  You are under no obligation to do so.  If anyone asks just say you are keeping the wedding to close friends and family. Rational people will understand and let it go in all of five seconds.  Anyone who doesn't is a dillhole, so who cares what they think anyways.

I agree with PP.You don't have to invite them.

If you don't socialize outside of work, I wouldn't invite them.  Just because you were invited to the daughters' weddings does not mean you 'owe' them an invite.  Especially if you have such a huge guest list already.

There is no obligation to invite bosses or co-workers.  A good rule of thumb is that if you don't socialize with them outside of work, then you don't need to invite them to your wedding.  Work is work, your wedding is a personal event.
