Inviting coworker who ended up quitting

This happened to a couple of our guests. They were my husbands co workers and quit before the formal invitations went out but we still talk to both of them so we still sent them an invitation. Considering you no longer talk to them, I would just skip sending the invitation although I know that goes against "proper wedding etiquette."

I mean, I'm guessing you already factored her and her SO into your guest count/budget. It's true that not sending an invitation after sending her a save the date would be considered rude. If she's also not talked to y'all since she quit (as in, no attempts were made on either side) then there's a strong possibility she'll decline anyway. I'd send her an invite.

To me there is zero downside in sending the invitation because there is no reason to think this coworker will bother to attend. But this way at least, your conscience will be clear and you can move on and forget her.

This is a good cautionary tale for others working on guest lists. If you aren't friends with coworkers outside of work, there's no need to invite them to your wedding. It's so easy (nearly inevitable) to fall out of touch when people change jobs if you aren't real friends.

I'd still send out the invitation and if she doesn't RSVP by your deadline than I would count her out.

Agreed! Just don't send her the formal invite. If you haven't talked to her since, why invite? Cost per head gets expensive.

I'd say if they got a save the date, they should get a wedding invitation. Since your wedding is across the country, the chances of a former co-worker of your's coming is very low so I wouldn't worry about that part of it.
