I know the general rule of etiquette here, but we want personal opinions.
If your friend/sister/cousin was getting married in a private ceremony (15 closest family members invited), would you be offended if you were invited to the reception.. but not to the ceremony?

not if it was explained in a courteous way -
if i was left in the dark as to why the private ceremony was so exclusive and felt "barred" from it- then, yes, perhaps I would

I actually wouldn't mind, I know if I wasnt' invited at all I'd be saying "they should have at least invited to the reception!" I think it's fine and maybe they had to split some people to be able to invite everyone.

i would be a little sad, but not offended, if they're really close to you even though they are a friend then they should be able to come. i'm sure someone could squeeze in a few extra people even though it's a private ceremony.

If there is only so much room for a small wedding, then I would not be offended in the least. You have still been included in the celebration.

I was about to say if it was my sister then I would be mad. No I would not be offended if it was my friend or cousin. They would just have their family with them. And I would see pictures so I would be cool
