Do i have to invite coworkers/boss?

It's definitely not rude. I'm not inviting any of my bosses (I've worked at my current job for 6 years). There's no hard and fast rules about these things.

I don't think it's rude. I started my current job last November, and I'll be just shy of the two-year mark by the time I get married. While I work at a large company, the office I work at has 15-20 people. My boss is the company's CEO, and is rarely in the office. The only co-worker I have on my guest list is my colleague who I have a friendship with, which I'm sure the others will be understanding of as the others and I aren't close, and they're aware I'll be having a small wedding.

Not rude at all! What I read (I think it was an article on here but can’t remember) was that coworkers only need to be invited if you hang out with them outside of work (if you want to invite them)

I see your wanting to invite your boss and some co workers to your wedding though it's way too many as you mentioned. Don't take the risk as you two do want to cut the number down and he's not inviting any co workers from his work. Keep it simple and smaller if that's your plan.

I purposely didn't invite my boss/his wife neither his father/common law wife to our wedding as it would be why him and not me question.

Also if you do get close with coworkers down the line, perhaps it’s not as classy but you can always invite them to crash the reception later at night? If they’re close enough to you I’d think they would be happy with that and understand

Think of it as inviting people that you can share these memories with 30 years down the line! I’d say a big no to inviting them

I definitely do not think you have to invite your coworkers. I also started a new job and will have known them about a year when we get married. I work in an office with about 50 or so people but there are only 18 in my department. I am fairly close with some of them so I will probably invite them to the dance only.

You do not need to invite coworkers and I really don't think they would expect to be invited. You are not obligated to mingle your personal and professional lives and most people understand that.

I have honestly never been to a coworkers wedding, or been invited to one, nor do I anticipate that I will invite any. I get along very well with my boss and everyone at work, but we are not involved in each others' personal lives beyond the odd after work beers once in a while.

If it so happens that someone at work becomes an actual close friend over the next year, perhaps they should get an invite, but I would not invite any non-family member to your wedding that you don't regularly hang out with outside of work.

Unless you hang out with them outside of work regularly, you do not need to invite them. I'm in the same boat where my company is small and my FH works at a government agency with 100s of others. I get along great with my coworkers and might B-list them if we get enough declining RVSP's.

With the exception of my boss, who is a friend of mine from before I worked at my current company, none of my coworkers are invited to the ceremony or dinner. They will get 'wedding crasher' invitations, though, for the dance and drinks portion.

Well for me - I have a guest list of 250 as is without coworkers on the list. Now.... I used to work with two of his cousins so they will be invited - but as of right now I do not plan on inviting many others here at work as they are like Brittany said; personal life personal and work life at work. I have worked here for almost 3 years and by the time my wedding comes around add another year. If you don't see them outside of work then your wedding doesn't have to be any different. I am having 3 coworkers invited but I have regular wine and game nights with them which means I consider them friends over coworkers.

You don't have to invite anyone, especially coworkers and bosses in my opinion. I didn't invite anyone I work with to my wedding and some of them are my friends. If your guest list is already too big than stick to your guns. You can tell anyone at your work who shows interest in getting invited that you have already confirmed final numbers with your venue and that you aren't even sure you are going to have room for all your family and close friends.

Nah dont worry about it! Were in the same situation we both have started new jobs but neither of us are inviting from our new jobs at all! We met through our old job and we're inviting people from that old job! But not from the new! I dont think anyone would expect it since you are still new! Even if the wedding is a year from now you are making the list now for people who matter NOW! and who knows what if you did invite them and closer to the wedding start to have issues? I wouldn't want the extra stress keep work and personal separate!

I've only started 6 months ago in my current job. They know I am getting married next year but I think they understand that I won't be inviting them to my wedding. For my wedding, I am only inviting close friends and family, not coworkers/bosses.

You don't have to invite them at all. even if you had been working there when you started planning. a guideline is that if you invite a couple of coworkers. you should invite all (unless of course you work at a giant office). but I wouldn't feel obligated to invite them at all.

Nope. Not rude at all. Personal life is personal. Work life is work. If you happen to be friendly with colleagues outside of work, great... but that doesn't mean you need to invite them to the wedding.

Honestly.... You're right, a lot can change in a year. Keep them in mind as B-list guests if you get a certain number of declined RSVPs....

Realistically though, especially since you built your original guest list before even starting work, it would be odd that people would expect to be invited for the possibility of future friendships...
