Do we have a right to feel offended? (Poor wedding etiquette)?

My mom and other family members were informed by e-mail by the mother of the groom (a close cousin of my mom, they grew up together) that my mom's side of the family were not invited. My mom's cousin impersonated my aunt on the email and signed my aunt's name (which my aunt was unaware of) . We found out later that my mom's cousin invited her dad's side of the family. Nothing was ever done to offend my mom's cousin by anyone in our family, and we always had warm feelings towards them all. Even if my mom didn't get a wedding invitation she was more hurt by not getting a proper wedding announcement. We were all made to feel that we weren't good enough because money and success are very important to my mom's cousin. My mom and dad are very respectable people, my dad had a good career as an RCMP officer and has worked hard all his life. Would others find this kind of treatment offensive?

    JESUS SAYS: .........YES, FEEL OFFENDED, FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS, OR LESS, AND THEN.......MOVE ON WITH YOUR LIFE.

    NO NEED TO CARRY A GRUDGE. EH? ITS TOO HEAVY.

    AND IF YOU HAVE TO, THEN, JUST PUT THE OFFENDER(S) ON YOUR "SH*T LIST".

    People can be soooooo silly. I think it is odd to send an email- hiding behind a computer- rather then place a phone call. It sounds like someone is trying to stir up trouble. Most often numbers of guest have to be limited. It is really up to the bride and groom who they choose to invite. You can choose to be offended or move on. Your saved from having to buy a wedding gift, and they lose because they didn't include family.
