To invite work friends or not invite work friends....

If you don't know them and don't want them there that's your choice...no pay/no say

I agree 100%. If there's no one you want to have at your wedding, you are not required to invite anyone.

I work at a small company and have for 6 years. I invited the owners of the company, my boss, another director, and two co-workers that I am very close with. My job entails a lot of travel, so we are all incredibly social with each other, but those were the people that I would like to share in my day. These are also the people who have been with the company the longest too; everyone else I have known for less than 2 years and I seriously doubted they expected to be invited. I know one of the owners is coming, but I think everyone else is declining (it's a DW so it was a long shot anyway).

I am inviting my whole company (20 total) and FH is inviting his boss and his team (5 total). He works for huge company so there is no way he could invite everyone!

I think it really depends on your relationship with your co-workers. You don't have to invite any of them either!

When your friend got married, how did she pick? It's not wrong if she only invite the boss only or co-workers that she actually hang out outside of work.

I say it's your choice but I invited my office staff because they have been so helpful with my schedule while I was planning...many has already stated that they will not be able to attend

We are only inviting 4 coworkers (and their spouses). They are the people we have spent a considerable amount of time with, and have established friendships with (even spending time with them outside of work). I don't feel bad about not inviting others, because I would not expect to be invited to a co-workers wedding that I was not close with.

I'm only inviting two co workers.

I'm inviting the two coworkers I hang out with outside of work.

I've been at my job 5 years. I invited one colleague that I travel frequently with for work- we've become close. The other colleague I invited I knew before we started working together-she got me the job there and we hang out outside of work.

My rule is, I'd I don't see you outside of work you don't get an invite. I work in a hospital and would have to invite 50+ people if I invited everyone.

I'm only inviting two people from work. My supervisor, because we are very close. She is actually taking care of my programs, invitations and menu cards. There is one other person, and we communicate outside of work.

I left a job of 5 years last year to move here to be with FH, but we're having our wedding back in our hometown. I'm only inviting 2 people from my old job - that I still talk with regularly.

I'm not inviting anyone from any of my new jobs... I work at 3 hospitals, and really enjoy my coworkers, but am not outside friends with any of them. I wouldn't have them over to my house for dinner, so I don't think I need to invite them to my wedding either.

I've been at my current job for 7 months and won't be inviting any of my coworkers. My old job that I had been at for 3 years only had 3 other people in my office but I'm not inviting any of them since we were never social outside of work. FH has been at his job for 3 years and he is only inviting 1 coworker but they have known each other since they were kids so it's different than his other coworkers

I love people I work with but I don't need them there to witness my marriage. I know for certain that I won't remain friends after I leave this job, so I am only inviting my nearest and dearest friends and family. That's how I want it

Only invite them if yu see them outside of work often.

I am inviting my coworker, there are only two of us. FH is not inviting any

You guys are right. The majority of you said invite people u c out of work only so that's what I'll do! Thanks so much! I work in a hospital as well as some of you so that will be way to many to invite! Lol

I went through the same thing. Even though I am kind of close to some people, I just decided not to invite anyone. I think that's the best thing to do.

Do not let a co-worker guilt you into paying for 50 extra people just because they've known you for 7 years. It's ridiculous! Unless you are genuinely friends with someone, no no no!! People just get a little crazy when it comes to weddings and even if you were never close to them somehow still think they are entitled to come to your wedding. It's insane.

I did not invite anyone from work but DH invited 2 people (and their spouses) because they are genuinely some of his best friend's and more than just work acquaintances. One was his best man!

I'm only inviting coworkers that I'm close with. I think it would be weird to invite those you don't know very well. When I worked at a hospital there would of been no way I could of invited all of my coworkers because there are so many. If you're worried about people being offended not inviting anybody from work or maybe you could only invite the people from work if you also hang out with them outside of work as well.

I definitely don't think it has to be an "all or none" thing. You have different relationships with different people, do you really want weird Jerry from accounting there, just out of politeness? You're paying too much per person to invite people just to be polite. Just invite the people you actually consider to be friends and see outside of work, or don't invite any of them if there isn't a person you really want.

My wedding is out of state from my current job, but I'm only inviting one person regardless. She won't come because she'll have a newborn at that point, but she's the only one I hang out with outside of work on a regular basis (and not just at company-funded happy hours).

My fiancé is inviting his coworkers because he's kind of entitled too (business partners kind of status ) but me on the other hand I'm not planning to invite anyone. It depends on the situation... besides work purposes I'm not close with anyone
