Say you're going, not show up and make them waste money on you being there.
It's a decent way of burning the bridge. |

To be fair, if it is a small wedding, and they are clearly on a tight budget, they have to draw the line somewhere.
I mean, if they made an exception to everyone who was coming to bring the person they have been seeing for a while, then it would no longer be a small wedding.
Obviously neither one of them is very close to your BF, so he is an easy guest to cut from the list when they are trying to shorten it. Some people just don't have the money to have extravagant weddings, and some just want it to be something they share with the people they know, not the people they know and they people they know, you know? LOL!
I think you're taking it too personally, but then again, I wasn't there so I didn't pick up the vibes and I don't know any of the other circumstances surrounding the situation. However, if I were having a small wedding, and my friend was only seeing someone for a short amount of time... and when it came to shortening the list, he would probably be an easy one for me to scratch off.
My own cousin did it to me last year. He was getting married and I was invited. I asked if I could bring the guy I had been with for 2 years and he told me straight up that they simply couldn't afford it.
Nothing to get upset over. |

similar situation:
My GF's friend(23 years old) met some doctor(46) and hit it off and within two months they were getting married. She invited only her and well GF and I have been together for 4+ years.
Final word is she did not go and if we get married my GF knows who she will only be inviting and thats a fact!
Sometimes you know who your true friends in these situations.
My advice don't go to the wedding due to sickness and then when you get married only invite her and see how she likes it. F'n Bitch |

I disagree.
When you are having a small and intimate wedding with your closest friends and family, extra people you don't really know don't make the cut.
Period.
A wedding is often considered a celebration of the joining of 2 people. This can be a very intimate thing for people, and they may choose to share this experience with a select group. This usually doesn't include strangers, or acquaintances.
Had she been married to the guy, I could see the reason for the fuss. But she isn't. |

I don't buy it for a second. The groom said he's not paying $30 for Squirrelly's bf to eat at the wedding. That sounds all like it has anything to do with the wedding being "an intimate wedding" or whatever.
It's absolutely piss-poor form to not invite your best friend's partner to your wedding. |
