American weddings

I never understood the way Americans celebrates weddings. I mean: This woman obviously puts business associates before family and I don't get it. A wedding, in my opinion, should be a celebration with the closest family and friends, or more distant family and friends, should the budget and location allow it - not something to put on your companys representation account.

In Denmark some people choose that minor kids are not invited to the wedding, but I've never heard of a teenage niece not being invited.

Then again, my only knowledge of American weddings comes from newspapers, the internet and the television. Maybe the ordinary American wedding is celebrated with family and friends and not 200+ guests. Please enlighten me.

But I do agree with Abby, that it's rather unpolite to ask to bring someone not invited to the wedding.
