We were invited to the 'cake cutting' part of the reception for a friend of the family. However, when we got there, there was the luncheon part of the reception still going on. We didn't see the bride or groom, so we waited around the area, not wanting to intrude on the other guests. But, after waiting 45 min after the time we were given to show up, we felt like we were invited as an after thought. Esp when you consider we never received a formal invitation, just a text a few days prior. We decided to leave after the 45 min of waiting for the bride and groom to show up. I know weddings don't always run on time, but we thought it very strange to be invited to 'a part of the reception', and just be milling around while the other guests are eating/drinking. Just curious if this is a new thing, or if we are justified in feeling slighted?
