Lately it seems that family and friends getting married, on guest invitations, have included my name on the one to my parents that live in another town. I haven’t lived with my parents since graduating high school 8 yrs ago. I have a career, my own home and a life in a different town. I don’t have a husband or kids. I see myself as a family of one. Does the fact that I’ve never married nor have kids make me a dependant of my parents that I haven’t lived with for yrs? They know where I live. One bride, a good friend, sent an invitation to my parents with my name included on their envelope. Another bride, my aunt, addressed the envelope as “Mr. & Mrs. Smith & family”. I, nor my married-w/children sister that lives 400 miles away, did not receive a separate invitation. Are my sister and I invited to my aunt’s wedding or does the “and family” just include my younger sis that still lives at home? Is their way proper etiquette? Am I wrong for feeling offended?
