Do you attend a wedding dinner....

That you hardly know the bride and the bridegroom at all? My MIL (mother-in-law) INVITED us to attend one of her grandson's wedding that we hardly know. She hardly had any acquaintance with the bridegroom too because all of us are staying apart. The bridegroom himself did not invite us to his wedding, nor his wife nor his own parents. His parents ( my MIL's own daughter ) invited her to the wedding but we were not invited. So, we won't attend the wedding dinner. Would you?

@peachpurple Thank you. Does your MIL know you are not coming?

Of course I would not, I would feel very rude going uninvited. A guest cannot decide to invite other people.

does it means that my mother in law should not invite me because the bridegroom and bride didn't invite me?

@peachpurple This is something we could not do here, it would be considered extremely rude. A guest cannot invite "guests" on his/her own. Only the bride, the groom or their parents can.

I wouldn't attend either. I get frequent wedding invitations from 2nd or 3rd cousins I don't know. I don't usually go because it's odd, and I'm pretty sure they are just being polite. Plus, most live a long way from where I live.

yeah, I was thinking of that too. We lived apart and hardly know each other

it depends on if they have assigned seating and a certain amount of plates chosen or if the reception is open. i may have gone if it was open to anyone invited by anyone else and not assigned a plan

Chinese culture, you are invited if the wedding invitation card is sent to you
