I doubt that any married couple intends to make people "feel obligated" to attend their wedding. They have made the decision to get married at that location an would like to celebrate with whomever can attend.
One of my best friends had a destination wedding last year that I was a part of and it was awesome. Everyone stayed at the same resort so there were always people to go on excursions with and it was really easy to interact/meet his wife's side of the family this way as well.
I have only had this one experiance but it was awesome and I would really enjoy going to another destination wedding.

The second you realize your wedding is not about you at all, but about your wife to be and all her crappy guests, the sooner you'll be over the disappointment.
I've never been married, just seen enough of these go down.
