Boss Dilema

I think it's ok not to invite them. Sometimes people just get so excited about weddings and for you, that they'll ask about your wedding plans.

It's totally okay not to invite them. They may just be asking because they need to know when you'll be off lol. My boss asks occasionally, but he's not invited.

That is true! I just hope there is not hurt feelings, I really like both, but would want to keep our relationship on a professional level and inviting them makes me think that would be broken

You absolutely do not have to invite your boss but I am of the opinion that its a nice gesture if you can. While its a professional relationship, your supervisors and coworkers are people you spend a lot of time with and its natural for them to be interested and excited for this momentous occasion in your life.

I'm sure that your coworkers are just asking to be nice. It's an easy topic of conversation. They might just be wanting to get to know you better, but I doubt they would be upset if they're not invited. Most people understand that wedding are more intimate events

Yeah, I just hope no one thinks they will get an invite and get hurt over the fact that I wont really invite them. I really like them but we are keeping it intimate with people who matter to us on a personal level

Ever since I left a really bad job, I try not to tell people my business, even when it’s positive. I never even hang pics up of my family anymore. It’s been great, nobody asks me these types of question, thank goodness.

Omg same here, but my boss noticed my ring when I got engaged and asked me, soon enough everyone and their moms knew I was getting married and since they ask, I just give them short answers to their questions but I just feel bad for some reason lol

You don't have to invite your boss! If you don't feel close enough with them, that's understandable

View Quoted Comment I feel so much better! I was feeling guilty !!

I’m inviting 3 people from my workplace. One is doing photographs. I would not invite my boss at all. You shouldn’t feel obligated to invite yours either!

I am not inviting anyone from work and I have been here maybe 1.5 years. You are not obligated. I would absolutely never invite my boss in any situation though. They don't need to be witnessing your drinking and your family and friends letting loose. To me, work relationships are professional and that's that. I used to work jobs where more people were my age in the restaurant business but now I am the youngest one. I wouldn't hang out with anyone outside of my work.

I dont feel as guilty as I was feeling now

View Quoted Comment I was asked about it point blank in a room full of people during our meeting on our last day (my team was displaced).

I was like, “Really”?!

I had already handed out invitations to like 4 people in the room and that was all that were invited.

You do not need to invite them! If they end up asking, you can say you’re keeping it to family and close friends. We aren’t inviting any coworkers, we do not have personal relationships with any of them, and only see them at work.
