question; I'm not so fond of my boss. She is nice one day and a total ***** the next. She knows I am getting married this year. she tells me how much she enjoys wedding. I am only having 100 people at my wedding and I'm not sure I want her there. If she already knows about it and is sure I'm inviting some friends from work, do I need to invite her also?
TIA

You don't need to invite her.
I am not inviting anyone from work. I see it this way, if you don't hang out with them outside of work, then they are just 'people you know at work'... even if you talk with them A LOT at work.

I definetly don't think you need to invite her especially since it's a small wedding. That being said, I think it may be a little awkward once you come back especially since there will be work people at your wedding. She will probably see pics and get a little insulted.
It's totally up to you in the end.

ITA with this. if you're willing to accept the awkwardness, then i'd say don't invite her

IMO, I'd invite her just because I didn't want it to be awkward at work later. Esp if she can be a B. Ugh! tough one though!

I think you really do need to invite her. It's one thing if you're not inviting anyone from work at all, but as soon as you are, I think you need to show respect to your boss.
I am far from BFF with my boss and he is invited.

Re: invite for my boss?
If you are 'Semi-friendly' with her and you are inviting other coworkers and she is almost 'expecting' an invite, i would invite her. For your working relationship, it's better to invite her than not to, and she can hang out with your coworkers.
If your coworkers can't stand her, then you have a very sticky situation. In this event, I would not prob not invite her, but I think it is respectful to. She will prob give a nice gift too!
I am inviting my boss bc he's great and we all like him

I'm in the almost the same situation... I'm inviting 250 (That's the difference)
I decided against inviting her because I don't see her as a friend. And since I only want friends and family there I don't think she should be.

I'm inviting my boss but that's because he's also the president of the company but no one else.
FH is inviting 5 people from work, not that many of which he is close with but they are work hand in hand so he felt obligated. He see's these people more that his friends....but he doesn't necessarily like them..

I would not invite her, stress your point to her of how small your wedding is. I am not inviting anyone from work and I have made a point since I got engaged to not talk about my wedding around the office for this reason.

ITA. To avoid awkwardness and her being upset and possibly taking it out on you, I would invite her if others are invited. U never know, she may not even come and still give you a gift....lol

I wouldn't invite her. I'm not inviting anyone from work, even people that I really like. If I don't see you outside of work, then no way jose. And I normally don't make any efforts to see people outside of work lol

Re: invite for my boss?
I think sometimes it's a choice over what's right versus what we want. If you're having coworkers it will be potentially awkward and could further emphasize the good witch/bad witch she sounds like. You don't have to socialize with her but it would be making a nice gesture and not cause further friction. I adore my boss so I'm thrilled he accepted
