Help me out with inviting coworkers!!!

I originally planned not to invite anyone from work, b/c I never see these people outside of work situation and we almost never go out to lunch together.
The top down structure goes like this:
1 big boss
1 immediate boss
2 sr. people
2 jr. people (I am one of them)
Secretary/Admin

I have so far invited 2 of the bosses over the past few days. I am now considering inviting the other people, but not sure I want to. One of the sr. people and a boss are writing my rec. for grad school, which in itself makes things a bit more complicated. Another reason stopping me from inviting the rest of the group is that I hate the other Jr. person in our group and don't even want to think about her coming...

What should I do. Reason tells me not to invite all these people, but in etiquette part of me feels that I should invite them, and not expect most of them to show up...

Re: Help me out with inviting coworkers!!!

why specifically do you feel you shouldn't invite them?

I would invite the people you would want to attend your wedding only. I invited my boss and 2 co-workers who I go out to lunch with and hangout with.

We're trying to keep the total wedding to about 100 ppl or so and I felt that since I don't have any friendly relations with these people outside of work, it does not justify to invite them. In addition, I hate one of my coworkers and can't quite exclude only her... However, I have invited by bosses out of courtesy, and don't really have any objections to inviting other people in my group (considering my wedding is over the July 4th weekend, I am sure only few if any will make it)
