Coworkers

I KNOW this has been asked before but...

How do you go about inviting only ONE person you work with? The girl I want to invite is more my age than anyone else at my work (by 30 years). And I know that doesn't make a difference, but I am also closer to her than anyone else that I work with and we have a 125 person maximum. I just don't want it to get out to everyone at work and then people feel like they were not included.

  • Just send her an invitation to her home address like you're doing with everyone else. I wouldn't mention it to her around other co-workers and I wouldn't send it to her at the office.

  • I'm inviting exactly one friend from work to my wedding, too.  Everyone knows we hang out on the weekends so it's NBD.  :) 

    Just avoid talking about it at the office when there other people around, and politely change the subject if someone else brings it up.

    btw, you probably want to wait until much closer to the wedding to decide for certain that you want to invite her.  I just noticed that your ticker has you over a year out.  Your relationship could change a lot in that year; you could become closer friends, or you could drift apart.  One of you leave for another job. 

    Don't commit to inviting her yet, or you might find yourself trapped with an unwanted guest if circumstances change between now and then.

  • I'm not sure of your relationship with your boss(es), but it's often not a bad idea to invite those whom have a direct impact on your job/career.  Some people have differing opinions regarding inviting of bosses, etc and feel they want to keep work/personal separate.  I'm of the school of thought it's better to invite those that sign your paycheck. ;)

  • I completely disagree Sapphire.
  • It's perfectly okay to just invite one friend from work, just send the invite to their home address.  I would though like to second PP comments about waiting to commit to inviting anyone until closer to the wedding.  You never know how things can change, particularly at work and you can get stuck with wasting one of your precious invites on someone you really don't want there anymore.
