Fixed your post. If I'm required to lay out $2200 (perhaps x2) to attend your wedding and be your friend, then I guess we're not friends anymore.
Have your wedding local, and spend the money on a nice honeymoon instead - just the two of you. Destination weddings, with the whole entourage and gong show, have to be one of the most narcissistic things I've seen the past decade. It's no longer about joining two families together, its all about "look at me, look at me". Never mind that half the family can't afford to go, and therefore miss the wedding of their cousin / niece / nephew / aunt / uncle.
The only way I would approve of a destination wedding is if the bride and groom pay everyone's way.
