Invite who you want but just ask them not to talk about the wedding amongst coworkers who are not invited & to be discreet about it since you're not inviting everyone.

I work with about 75 people and have been there for 15 years. My deciding factor was if i socialize with them outside of work, i invited them. I had to make the cut somewhere or else it gets out of control.

This!! I'm doing exactly this. I have another co-worker getting married and we agreed not to invite one another for cost reasons plus that fact we felt we had to invite other people in our dept. I'm inviting my boss and 2 co-workers b/c I have friendships with them outside the office. HTH

by asking friends at work to be discreet doesnt that put them in an awkward position with other people at work? im afraid of asking people to do this for me...anyone else worried about that?

I asked only the people that I like. I talk about my wedding in front of all my co-workers even though they are not invited because I don't care what they think.

I invited the people at work that I am close to. One of them asked me who else was being invited and said she wouldn't talk about it with others. I didn't ask anyone to be discreet, but I think they kind of knew to just not talk about it a lot. Even people I didn't invite asked me about the wedding - everyone knew about it - but I think the people not inivted understood that I invited those I am most friendly with. I never got the feeling that anyone was upset about not being invited.

i'm only inviting two girls from my team and not really talking about it much (I don't think) with anyone else. It's your wedding, do what YOU want.
