Small wedding dilemma

If it was me, I wouldn't. Only because I wouldn't want any of my coworkers to feel like we aren't tight. I would invite them to the bridal shower or w.e party you plan to have. But that's me, if you feel like the other women wouldn't have an issue because it's obvi your closer then go head girl.

You can definitely do whatever you choose with your guest list. If it were me personally, I would either invite all or none. I wouldn’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings or do anything that would give the impression I am ranking their importance to me. I would just feel horribly guilty and awkward at work from there on out.

That's a tough one. I decided to invite everyone in my office, which is only 5 and their spouses. I think they all would understand if you didn't invite them, especially since you are having a small wedding.

If you regularly meet up outside of work with only a few (1-3 people) out of that 15, I think it's valid to invite just them, but I would give them their invitations outside of work. Otherwise, if these aren't people who you regularly socialize with outside of work, or if you'd be inviting at least half the group, I would either invite all 15 or invite none, to avoid people feeling left out or potentially causing tension at work. Also, if you aren't inviting them to the wedding, I wouldn't invite them to any pre-wedding events (such as a bridal shower) either.

I wouldn't invite anyone without their spouse. For etiquette reasons, you must include partners on the invitations.

I would invite all or none, unless there's only 1 or 2 people you're closest with.

Honestly, I’d skip work colleagues. Less drama and that ensures you can keep a smaller guest list but ensure the other guests get to bring their spouse, partner or a +1 invited.

I think that if you are arranging a small celebration, then you do not need to invite all your colleagues. I think that no one will take it badly.

NO coworkers

I invited 0 coworkers even though they were dear friends. My vision for my wedding was only family and BEST friends only.

My kids will be in my wedding BUT I’m preferring no one bring kids except for a few who will be taking my kids with them when they leave lol haha

No coworkers

I would not invite anyone unless you regularly socialize with them outside of work. Spouses must be invited but children are optional. If you don’t invite any, they will understand.

View Quoted Comment Agreed! If you have a group you normally socialize with outside of work ide invite those, the rest should really understand its a wedding which is expensive and you are trying to keep it small so i personally do not understand adults getting “upset or feeling left out” i also would not invite them to pre-wedding events (like shower) or they will be expecting to be invited to the wedding as well. Best of luck!

View Quoted Comment Couldnt agree more

For coworkers I would invite all of them or none and I agree with you on the children part too.
