Lawyer brides? Guest list question
How are you handling who you are inviting to your wedding from work?
How are you handling who you are inviting to your wedding from work?
FH is a lawyer and he invited a lot of people from work, but he didnt want to just invite his close friends so he invited almost everyone he works with on a day to day basis within his office.
I only invited the one person I socialized with outside of work. Most of the other attorneys who got married the year before I did also only invited the people they were friends with outside of work. I don't think anyone cared or was offended.
I invited my immediate supervisor, my former secretary, and two other people that I socialize with. The remaining @ 75 people I did not invite.
I think I'm going to invite partners and those that I socialize with out of work only.
FH invited his entire class (small class - 5 people) but no partners, etc. I invited a partner and a few associates (those who took me to my new firm) and a few associates that I was close with from my prior firm. I had been planning on inviting my entire department since we're pretty small (10), but then I switched firms right before the invites had to go out so I thought that would be awkward. i didn't invite anyone from my new firm - I barely met them at the time.
My firm has two offices (NY and NJ, they operate as one). I invited my old secretary (who is in my bridal party and she is one of my best friends lol), the partners i associate with on a regular basis from the NJ office and the other associates from the nyc office where i work. Problem is that every single one of them pretty much left (small office). I didnt bother inviting the new associates that started, as the invites were already done. if you work in a large office, i would only invite the people u are close with.
I did not invite anyone from my office. I had only been with the firm a little over a year. Small firm with 4 partners and 6 associates. I was lucky that they threw me a bridal shower the week before my wedding.
