Inviting coworkers

Having trouble figuring out if I should invite all my coworkers or not. I work in a small hair salon with four other girls (my boss included). I’m really good friends with the one girl so she is definitely invited, my boss and one other coworker are really flakey with plans and will only go if the other is going. And the other girl I don’t usually see except once a week.
Since it’s such a small salon I feel like it’s rude to only invite 1/4 coworkers and i should just invite them all but on the other hand I’m nervous my boss and other coworker rsvp there coming and then end up not coming and basically wasting my money. And the last coworker and hardly see and wouldn’t invite her if I didn’t have to invite the rest.
Sorry this is so long but any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

I invited my entire office because it's small. We had a new woman just start and we have a contracted computer guy, I wasn't as close to them but felt weird excluding them. I invited my boss, his daughter (our office manager), and the other appraiser in our office because I had known them for 2 years already at the time of our wedding. My husband didn't invite anyone from his office.

I am inviting everyone from my office. There are 8 employees altogether. 16 because I'm giving them all plus ones. I would feel weird not inviting everyone. We have an accountant that works for us about 4-5 hours a week, I don't care for her but I'm still inviting her because it would be rude not to. Just hoping I get a decline from her. My FH isn't inviting anyone from his work.

I also work in a small office with only 4 girls. I'm good friends with my boss, so I eagerly invited her and her husband. I also decided to invite the other 3 out of politeness.

Everyone tells me this was unnecessary, but here's the thing: I have a big mouth and can't/ don't plan to shut up about wedding stuff, and I felt like it would be a little taunting to keep blabbering on about this event in which they are not included. If you are able to be more discreet, then I don't think you need to bother.
Luckily, the 3 coworkers I'm not as close with declined, but did say they will look forward to the pictures/ videos, so I will get to talk about it even more after the fact lol!

I ended up not inviting any of my coworkers, because there was no way the business could be open on that day and still have my coworkers attend. (I work in the restaurant industry for my day job.)
If your work can close on the day of your wedding, invite them all. If it cannot, do not invite any of them.

I invited everyone on my shift (4 girls) but know that some of them will have to work. It's a nice gesture and honestly you will see the schedule or know if they work they won't attend.
