Are you inviting co-workers?

Time to spill about your guest list decisions and who made the cut !! What about your co-workers? Did any of them make it on the guest list? Next Question: Are you inviting plus ones? Previous Question: Are you inviting cousins?

    YES! My work is a small office of 9 people total, so everyone plus SO's are invited. We're all close and do things outside of work monthly or so. My FH works in a bigger place, but he'll be inviting a few close co-workers.

    No, very small wedding (10 guests). Kept it to immediate family and 2 long-time friends.

    There are some coworkers I would invite if I had a larger guest list, but we went with microwedding, so no coworkers made the 10 guest limit.

    I'm a nurse in a unit that employs 175 nurses. Granted, half are days and half are nights. That being said, one coworker is a bridesmaid. I invited about 25 otherwise, but they are all people I do things with outside of work. Everyone from work was not given a plus 1, but that's the norm in our unit. Most people have worked there ar least 10 years, so the wedding pool is huge.

    I'm in the same boat! Very small department. Our guest count is very small (50-60) so we're just inviting close friends and family at this point. Once the final RSVPs are in and if there's space, I might open up the invites to work people.

    If you only want to invite two or three coworkers you're closest to, I've heard some people just mail them an invite to their home address and personally tell them that only a couple of work people were invited and to keep things on the down-low. But I suppose that'd depend on if these coworkers were trustworthy and could keep a secret...

    It's your wedding. I think you should invite whoever you most want there. In my experience with weddings, someone gets offended at something and you can only control what you decide/how you react to things. Just my two cents though.

    I invited a few that I had actually befriended and hung out with outside of work. It's doubtful they'll go since the workplace only allows so many people to take the same days off, but I figured it would still be worth it.

    I work for my stepdads small business and our two other employees are my fh and his brother so had to invite them all haha. I have a lot of "family" which made it really hard for me. Inviting one person made it so I had to invite 4 other people but I think my final guest list will be perfect.

    I told my coworkers that none of them were invited & most understood.. one that actually did understand I ended up sending her a save the date because we got really even outside of work & she knows not to tell anyone else.

    Not inviting any co workers, I can’t even afford to invite all my family I wanted.

    None for me, a select few for him. We literally cut our guest list to just close family and close friends and we can hardly get it under 150. Unfortunately, coworkers didn't make the cut for me. FH has invited 2 (+their wives/fiances) but they are also his groomsmen!

    Technically speaking, from my side, yes. But one of them is actually my officiant and he is my boss for my 1st job. From my 2nd job, her daughter is playing the piano in my ceremony, and she also happens to be my boss. My FH is inviting everyone he works with.
