Inviting Co-Workers

No!!! You cannot invite people to the bridal/wedding shower and not invite them to the wedding. That is not proper etiquette at all. If you invite them to one, you have to invite to the wedding too. It`s like saying to them, I want your gift at the bridal shower, but you`re not good enough to come to the wedding itself.

My advice is you either should invite them to the wedding too, or not invite them at all (to either one).

I`m getting married next May myself and there are quite a few people at work that I am close to and work closely with, but I`m not inviting to the wedding. So believe me, I know it`s hard. My fiance and I had to cut quite a few people, including relatives (distant, thank God) so we could cut costs. We are only inviting a few of our closest co-workers (that we consider "friends" and hang out with also outside of work) to the wedding. You just have to know when to put your foot down and say no.

Hey, in life, you`ll learn that you will never make EVERYONE happy....but that`s just life.
