Inviting future boss

I will be starting a new job two weeks after the wedding. The partners (4) of the accounting firm all know I’m getting married. Is it appropriate for me to invite my future bosses? Thanks!

  • Invite them if you would like or if you already have an established relationship with them, but I don't think that you have to. All in all, I think inviting bosses is a bad idea.

    I wouldn't invite them.  If you'd been working with them for some time or had formed friendships outside of work, then my advice might be different.  But if they'll have only been your bosses for two weeks at the time of the wedding -- no way.  Inviting them would be feel awkward and potentially even presumptuous.

  • You start the job 2 weeks after your wedding.  Do you really want to have to worry about making your first impression to your bosses on your wedding day?  In my experience bosses are not offended if they do not get invited to the wedding, in fact they are sometimes relieved.  That whole mixing buisness and pleasure thing.

  • Yeah, if it were me, I would skip inviting the bosses. It sort of sounds like a recipe for disaster.

  • The partners in this firm are not your personal friends. You don't even know them.
  • Thanks for the advice!
