They are paying for the reception (the bride's parents.) In my opinion, it is YOUR wedding, you invite who you want, reguardless of who is paying for what. When I got married we had about 100 people (we have big families) but it was ALL close friends and relatives, there were no 3rd or 4th cousins or mothers brothers bosses there. I just think nowadays in 2006 it should be the couples right to choose who comes. What does everyone else think?
