No one cares about your wedding as much as you do!

Sorry. That really does suck. My office is definitely the party-throwing type. We even throw baby showers for the dads. I had never seen that before, so I thought it was pretty cool. I would be pretty bummed if no one really acknowledged my wedding.

Maybe they will do something after you return? I got a card with a Target gift card and something off our registry when I got back from my honeymoon. DH didn't get anything from his work.

I don't think we do stuff like this in my office.

I was asked about a shower but declined n just suggested a lunch with some of the ladies. Nothing come out of it n I returned to...nothing, no card, no congrats email other than from my boss. People now notice my name change n say congrats but yeah...pretty low-key. It's all good!

FH and I also met at work and still work together. We had a shower at work and although a lot of people couldn't make it, it was still a nice shower and felt nice to finally be on that side instead of being an attendee.

i'm sorry some of you had such negative experiences!

Mine gives baskets to people getting married

Op, my job threw me a lovely shower with food and a monetary gift. I wasn't expecting it but it was incredibly nice.

For birthdays at our office, we ALWAYS go out on the day of or the day before if it's on a weekend. Mine was on a weekday and no one planned a lunch. I was definitely hurt.

I think sometimes people just forget, especially in the workplace. They are your coworkers first, if they are your friends that's great but that wulll always gone second in the workplace.

It sucks but chin up! Your wedding weekend will be fabulous and the last thing you'll be thinking about is work.

I was absolutely floored when my team had a collection for me and another coworker with cards. I got mine after I returned back to work but it was so sweet. Usually when we do things such as this or baby showers or bachelorettes it's if someone steps up and plans it. Sometimes it's just missed and no hard feelings

I work in an office that is 95% men, so I didn't talk much about the wedding because I didn't think the guys would be interested. If it came up, I would talk about it, but otherwise I kept it to myself. Even a month after the wedding people were just finding out I had gotten married, so there definitely wasn't anything planned. My previous office had a very different vibe and would throw parties for birthdays, and showers. I definitely get little twinges of disappointment that my current one doesn't.

I'm sorry you're feeling disappointed. It just generally sucks that they didn't even acknowledge it.

I'm actually a full time student and fiance is currently the sole provider for us until I finish school so I won't have any type of celebration but I do know how you feel. I worked for a company for a while and got along really well with everyone I worked with. They always brought cake in for those who were leaving, but did nothing for me on my last day. Needless to say, I don't keep in touch. Not because I didn't receive anything but because it shows were I stand with them.

Aw that stinks. A coworker and I were just talking today about when you invite people to a party and they don't RSVP. And how it's hurtful especially when it's an important occasion. A simple "I'd love to come but can't make it" is all that's needed to at least ACKNOWLEDGE someone. Otherwise it's just dismissive and hurtful. I'm sorry they made you feel that way.

They will surprise you. I sure hope they go in for a nice gift for you! I've only been at my job for 6 months so I haven't seen anything for a wedding but they do a cute job of surprising people for their birthday

My work only does it for certain people. They've thrown a shower for one of the schedulers but not one for another scheduler who just got married. They also have thrown them for certain people in my department but I know they won't for me. It's the atmosphere of the place anyway so I'm used to it but it's still annoying so I feel your pain.
