The best weddings I've been to recently involved the couple eloping and throwing a cheap reception for friends and family afterwards.
Anyone that gets upset about people not being able to attend either local or destination needs to check their expectations. I'd even go so far as to say that anyone who goes on any sort of guilt trip or power trip over someone else decision is a friend that is worth losing.
