Uninviting people?

I had sent a save the date (not a formal invitation) to my current employer’s family, but very recently some really creepy, bad things have happened and I don’t want to see him there. Can I just not send a formal invitation? How should I handle this?

    Don't invite the jerk! If he makes you uncomfortable then he shouldn't be at your wedding and I don't think that you need to provide any further explanation.

    Absolutely allowed. My uncle and his fiancee had a similar issue with his daughter (my cousin) a few months before their wedding. She had already received a save the date card. She blew up at her dad over his fiancee creating an album of the photos she took from my cousin's wedding and had them sent to our grandparents since they did not attend the small wedding. Basically it resulted in his daughter telling him that she would only let him be part of her life if he quit having any communication with not only the rest of his family (his siblings, parents, etc) but his fiancee as well. He NOPE'D out of that situation real quick and they decided to just take her and her husband off the invitation list. They also had a few security guards stationed at the exits with a photo of my cousin and her husband to ensure they did not attend the event as they didn't want any issues/blow ups occurring.

    My opinion : Do not invite someone if they will make you uncomfortable on your day. No explanation needed, just remove them from the list.

    Don't send the invitation. Doesn't sound like he should be apart of one of the biggest days of your life.


    P.S. my employer isn't getting invited to mine for the same thing, creepy behavior. Don't feel bad at all (because I don't lol).

    Yes, you can just skip sending them a formal invitation.

    What’s right and wrong or etiquette doesn’t apply in all cases. I say do what makes your comfortable and you don’t need to explain anything to any one. Is your wedding day after all! People change and relationships change and don’t give yourself by something you send when everything was ok between you two.

    If you won't be working for him and he is being that kind of creepy then 100000% do not send an invite. I would cut off all possible ways for him to communicate with you once you receive your final paycheck. Sorry he's such a creep

    Then I would not send an invitation. And if they ask, be honest, even if his wife is the one that asks. No one should be made to feel uncomfortable in the workplace, and definitely not at their own wedding.
