Inviting boss to wedding?

My bosses (husband and wife doctors) would bend over backwards for me so I am inviting them. I am however running into the difficult decision of whether or not to invite the other doctor that works in the office... she's nice, but I'm not as close to her. I am inviting a handful of coworkers, so I'm thinking I should?! I still have a little while to think on it though! Lol

I'm inviting mine, but he is like a second father to me. We joked when FH proposed that he had to ask my boss' permission first.

I invited my boss, been there six years and he is a great guy, I would have felt weird not inviting him!

I think you answered your own question. You don't want to invite him, so there is no reason on earth that you should. I feel like it would be inappropriate of him to say anything or try and make you feel bad for not wanting to mix private and work life.

I invited 2 of my supervisors (since I know them both outside of work) and 3 girls from my office whom I'm really close with. I did not invite the owner of my company. I do work directly with her but I've only been working here 2 years and granted we do have a good work relationship, she's not my friend or family. She's my boss. If I maybe hung out with her outside of work, I would possibly invite her. Actually who am I kidding?? I like the lady but she's my boss - she has had no significant meaning to my relationship, so no she's not invited.

I’m not inviting anyone from my full time job, especially not my boss. I like him, but have 0 relationship with him outside of work. I think we have less than one non-work related conversation a month.
But I also have a part time job at a small business and I’m inviting my boss from there along with the only other two ladies I work with. I’m much closer to my boss there, and I feel like she’s automatically involved in wedding things because we’ve needed to discuss dates and a few details.
If you are being honest with yourself, do you WANT your boss there?

Depends on the fired ship. Is it just a work relationship or do you see/hang out/talk outside of work? My office knows about the wedding but I will not be inviting anyone. I had a bad experience at my last job, so this time around I've been pretty private and to myself.

I'm struggling with this as well and I need to decide ASAP. My dad and I work for the same company. I used to come here for bring your child to work days, and then I interned every summer once I was old enough to work. After graduating college I took a position here full time. So I've known these people a long time. I've been back and forth with inviting the President, VP, my boss, and the department my boss and I work closest with which adds on 12 people (because of their spouses). I've been leaning towards not inviting anyone because most of them won't come but if the President or VP do come I know my dad will feel like he can't let loose. Also, I feel as though others will be upset if they find out they weren't invited.

I am not inviting my current boss. But I did invite most of my coworkers from my college job. I loved that job and those people MUCH more than where I’m at now so I chose them over my now job

I am inviting my boss, but she is also my friend, we hang out almost everyday when we go to the gym together. IF we were not friends outside of work, I would not invite her. FH keeps everything church & state when it comes to work - I have never met his co-workers - he does not hang out with them outside of work besides work luncheons/dinners or trips.

View Quoted Comment Ah!! Yes that’s a tricky situation but I know how you (or your dad) feel about letting lose. I say in my opinion don’t invite them so your dad can have fun at your wedding. It’s he’s daughters wedding you want him to feel comfortable. If you don’t invite anyone from work they will be more understanding. Good luck with the rest of your wedding planning 💜

That's what I'm thinking! Thanks

Good luck with your planning as well

I'm not inviting mine (don't get me started on why), but unfortunately this means I can't invite anyone else from the office which kinda bummed me out.

I invited both of my bosses cause they became more like family.

I’m inviting my boss but her little girl is going to be our flower girl. Either way though I would have invited her since we have been talking about wedding/engagement stuff even before the question was popped (we both new it was coming though)

It’s only 4 of us and I have invited everyone! Well I posted the invitation on the board at work! If they come cool if not oh well I’m still gone have a good time lol

I'm struggling a little with this too. I know there will be some co-workers that may be sad to not get an invite. OP, in your case I'd say no - you say you're not close so I wouldn't invite solely due to a sense of obligation. We can't always invite the world.

View Quoted Comment Nooo I’m sorry to hear that. Can you just invite the ones your really close with? I don’t see how people can’t understand

I work in a private office and invited everyone. At first I wasn't going to invite my boss, but at the Christmas party he and his wife started asking questions and saying they would clear their schedule so after that I kind of had to for the sake of my entire office life..ha

My boss is incredibly vindictive and if I invited others and not her it would make my working life miserable, so its better to just skip everyone from the office. *sigh*
