Inviting Coworkers

Scandalousrandallous, on May 5, 2021 at 10:27 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 11

I just added up all my coworkers + spouses and it totals about 21 people, potentially more than half of what weʻre allowed in total so probably not feasible

Of everyone, we could whittle it down to 3-12 of who we are closest to depending, which obviously would be a lot easier on the guest capacity...

BUT, itʻs a Thursday wedding so only having SOME coworkers would mean theyʻd slyly have to get the day off...


1) Invite all or none

2) Invite who you want and let the cards fall where they may

    Only invite those you regularly socialize with outside of the office. And do not hand out invites in front of others who are not invited.

    Invite who you want to invite, most co workers don’t expect to be invited to every colleagues wedding.
    Send the invites to their homes though.

    I was sneaky and got a lot of addresses for christmas cards this year since we were all working from home, so I know where to send the invites now.

    I'm in the exact same situation. Thursday wedding and not sure whether to invite all my coworkers to avoid hurting feelings or just invite who I want. It's tough! I'm leaning toward inviting only the coworkers I have a social relationship with outside of work. There are plenty of people I am "work friends" with but only a handful I'm truly friends with outside of work.

    Invite those you socialize with outside of work. Those are your friends, and a wedding is a social not work occasion. As for getting the day off, it need not be secret.

    We are doing option 2) Invite who you want and let the cards fall where they may.. lol. We each invited who we wanted from work and are mailing their invitations to their home. Our wedding is on a Thursday, too. So they’ll have to leave early and the others have to stay 🤷🏽‍♀️ Oh well lol

    I only invited those closest to me which was 2 people. Those I actually hang out with outside of work. I sent them their invite instead of giving it to them in person. And don't talk about the wedding at work.

    I invited everyone. mostly because there were only 12 people and so i felt like if i only invited 8 of them that would be kind of weird.
