Curses!!!! Must I invite my boss.....

[nychaelasymone]

to wedding since I invited my co-workers?

I don't know what etiquette says, but my co-worker didn't invite our boss, but several co-workers went to his wedding....I thought it was strange, but no one seemed bent out of shape about it....

I don't believe in having anyone at my wedding I don't want to be there!. It's your day and if your boss is a mean/nasty person, they know it and should not be surprised. Heck they may not want to go anyway (unless it's a woman in which case she may want to go so she can spy), but I don't think she can do anything about you not inviting her. Do you owe her one though? You could just say what I say to people who aren't invited, it's an intimate affair, and your boss may speculate, but has no proof how close you and you co-workers are.

No one really likes my boss and she doesn't eat anything even when we go out as a group......so I don't see the point in inviting her. Just thought I'd get a consensus from the ladies.

 

[LivingDol1]

don't invite them. it's your day! only invite the people who you will be happy to see and are important to you.

I can't stand my boss but I would invite him anyhow out of courtesy. Plus I know he can afford a nice gift lol

There is no rule about inviting bosses, but it is a nice gesture unless you two can't stand one another.

 

[Transformer]

Yes you do. Hopefully she will just send you best wishes. Don't telegraph your dislike for your boss unless you're planning on not returning to the job.

Only invite people that you want to be there after all it is your wedding and your day. Just watch your back some people may get real testy about this and it can come back to haunt you just watch your back

 

[Livingmylifetothefullest]

Nope, it's your day and you can decide who you do and don't want at your wedding. Screw that courtesy crap, your paying for a once in a lifetime event and want everything to go off as planned.

No you don't have to. I didn't invite anyone from my job to my wedding. Two of my coworkers also got married in the past year and didn't invite her. I only heard negative things said about the young lady who didn't invite people but constantly talked about the wedding day in and day out. I think that is in poor taste. Other than that it's your day not a business function!

 

[nychaelasymone]

I don't talk about my wedding to anyone at work...meaning I don't brag. I discretly handed out save the date cards to those I wanted to invite but did not include my boss. I did invite the man who brought me into the company cause I admire and like him as a person. I don't mean any harm but I feel like it would be a waste to invite my boss since she's on a special diet and can't eat anyway, top it off w/ the fact that no one likes her and I just don't want to deal w/ her being there to be nosey....not my idea of fun

Amazing!

At least u asked for advice first, and they all were unanimous in agreeing that u in fact should NOT invite this woman.
Now u didnt and created a new thread on how your boss is mad , and SO many posters are coming down on you saying how dead wrong were.

WHERE WERE THEY WHEN YOU ASKED??!!

lol.

This is why sometimes I find it pointless to ask for advice.. the GOOD ones only come after the damage is alrdy done.

I must admit when I first saw this thread I agreed that you should NOT had invited her, but had I read the responses in the new thread I would have felt diffferently.

I hope ur boss will get over this soon and not hold it against u.

I'mma measure up the answers here and in the thread started...

HECK NO...receptions are a price per plate affair...if I dont want you there you wont be there.
