What in heaven's name does not know who might be in your pew have to do with whether or not everyone has an invitation? Half the weddings I go to, I only know five or six out of the hundred or more guests invited. But I would always have an invitation, not just "show up" because I had nothing better to do that day.

Well I am speaking IME and I have always NOT been the only other person there who did not go to the reception-shrug.

It is open to the public in the meaning that anyone is welcome (when it is open for "business").

you don't know that.


i would imagine if she got a closed off to the public,private church ceremony,it was because of her celebrity not because she personally wished her catholic wedding that way.


why do you think it wasn't revealed the chapel JFK jr. married until AFTER his wedding?

I have no experience with wanting to see someone married who didn't also want me there enough to send me an invitation to the ceremony, so I can't comment on how prevalent it is for people who didn't receive an invitation to the reception to have to leave after the ceremony. Until a few days ago, I had never heard of such a thing, period.

I am sure that the people who were INVITED to the ceremony knew where it was. They had invitations. That's the way it usually works.

And while the bride/groom might invite you. If there is nothing saying their ceremony is closed, anyone can attend no matter if they were given a personal invitation from the bride/groom orally or from other friends/family. I have been to ceremonies where my parents were invited to the reception and I was not and was not told personally I could could be there. It is usually just known you are welcome to attend a ceremony even if you are not invited to the reception.

That is what makes your subculture unique compared to other parts of the country where the general rule is that if your name is not on the invitation, you are not invited.
