Ask Amy: Couple could include ‘church family’ in wedding

Dear Amy: My long-term girlfriend and I got engaged and are planning a small (but not tiny) wedding next year.
We're anticipating 40 to 60 guests, made up exclusively of family and close friends.
My question is: Do we need to invite our co-workers?
We both work in the same small (20 person) office within our church.
We like everyone there, but are only really close with about five of these people.
One of the pastors from our church will officiate the ceremony, so at least some people from work will be there.
We don't want anyone to feel left out, but we also don't relish adding 15 acquaintances to an event that is so intimate.
Should we invite them? Should we not?
Is there a third option?
