New coworkers????

I began a new job three weeks ago and am now wondering what I should do regarding inviting my new coworkers.  My wedding is October 29 and so most of our guest list was done before I started my new job.  There's about 25 people in my office, so there's no way I can invite all of them.  However, there are 4 ladies who work in my department, that I see the most - would it be bad form to just invite my department and explain to anyone else who asks that I had limited space left??

I don't think you have to invite your co-workers unless you are close with them, meaning that you socialize outside of work with them, especially since you only met them 3 weeks ago.  And I don't think you need to explain anything to anyone.

I started a job 5 months before my wedding and had my guest list already set for the most part. I did not invite any of my new co-workers. They threw me a work "wedding" party the week before the wedding and everyone pitched in for a cake and gift card for us. It was really nice of them, and I don't think any of them thought badly because they weren't invited, they all understood.

My old boss and my newer boss got married (not to each other, just been at the same place for 14 years today! )  and none of us were invited, and I think that is the way it should be weather it's a boss or a co-worker. You get paid to do your job, doesn't mean just because they pay you for a service you have to invite them to an important part of your personal life.

We were invited to BBQ gathering about a month after one of the weddings and we all enjoyed ourselves, and we don't hold anything against the other boss who kept hers very private, we respected both.
