I started a new job last year and I was curious how people are doing this. I have several people I would love to invite. I ordinally said I wasn't going to invite anyone so no one gets hurt. But now I have developed chose relationship for several of the people. What are you gals doing? I have on manager that I am close with. If I invite her do I have to invite all six bosses? Ahh... I don't know what to do! I don't want to insult anyone!
We're inviting a few friends from work, but obviously not everyone - there's 40 people in our english department alone! just go with the people you're closest with. if you don't consider them friends outside of work then they probably don't need to be on your guest list.
I am only inviting a few people and I don't care what the other people at work think.

Yeah I think you can't go crazy about it. Maybe 1-2 tables if you are close with them? Lucky for me I work in a very small office so I can just invite everyone. They may not all come anyway, but everyone gets along with each other very well. I wouldn't invite anyone I don't feel comfortable inviting, just immediate boss/bosses.

I have a job that i work very closely with people, but at the end of the day, if i dont speak to these people outside of work (i.e. call, text, hang out) then they are not getting an invite.
agreed!
I work very closely with 6 people of the 6, I'm really good friends with 4...I'm inviting all 6 though coz how can I exclude them lol?
I'm inviting my boss and only close employees that I hang out with outside of work. I can't invite everyone LOL
I see many people are inviting their bosses. I am not even remotely close with my principal or AP. Do I still need to invite them? Also, there are 4 other English teachers in my department but only 3 of them have husbands, the other isn't dating anyone and neither are the other two teachers I would like to invite. Of all of them, I'm really not close to two of them, one is new. Such a predicament! I don't know what to do. Do I invite all the teachers with a guest or them all alone? This is annoyingin me.

if they are married you have to invite the spouses. think how you would feel if your husband was invited to a wedding without you...
