only give a invitation to the friends you want and can afford to have at your wedding. just because they have a party for you does not automatically say you must invite everyone.

3. Hang an invitation in the faculty lounge ONLY and not play favorites or you'll have hurt feelings that some got personal invitations. You dont need to start work with that kind of reputation..

they would know you were just being polite if you invited ALL of them.. you should invite only those people you think should witness your special day.

I vote for the 2nd option. I also work in a huge govt. office and am doing that.

If you do not want to post a school invite for everyone, then I would ask the individuals you want to come, for their addresses, and send them to their homes.

On a personal level I would prefer you invite your colleagues.

You know, if you invite everyone, and everyone actually attends, will they be also attending a reception???…where you will have to pay for every mouth that eats (including those faculty members that you don't know that well?).

If they are just invited to attend the ceremony, maybe option number 2 is best…and then those closer to you can get a separate one that might possibly also be their invite to the reception. (?) Good luck with that!

P.S. TEACHERS RULE!!! ) (from one fellow to another…)

If you want everyone there, then send them each an individual invitation. If not, you don't have to. Don't feel obligated to invite everyone to your wedding. I've heard it said that you shouldn't invite anyone to your wedding who you wouldn't invite to your house for dinner. I agree wholeheartedly. P.S.- If I didn't receive an invitation personally, then I probably wouldn't show up. I'd send you a gift though.
