It's a day everyone shares. Like, if I'm going to throw a birthday party for my wife, for instance, I'm going to try to plan something everybody will enjoy. I won't come up with a unilateral plan that suits her in spite of the needs/wants/accommodations required for all the guests. I won't plan an event that will cost people thousands of dollars and a week of their time to attend. That would be absurd. So even though it's her birthday, I'm going to take everyone who she would like to have there into account because we're not narcissists.
Weddings are the same. It's a day of significance for the couple; however, as soon as you start inviting people you need to take them into consideration and not treat them like unpaid extras. That is, unless you're selfish and don't care to be more thoughtful.
