Im really into weddings and being invited places, especially weddings and I have a condition related to Asperger's so I want to know do any of you get invited to weddings?

About 10, mostly as the "guest" of a family member. Never been a member of a wedding party (i.e. groomsman in my case)

Invited to a couple in the past 15 years, but didn't attend.
Too far away, no one to go with/bring me, nothing suitable to wear, social phobias, etc.

went to the wedding of one of my aunts, when I was around five. If my cousin ever decides to marry her boyfriend, I might get invited to the wedding.

I went to my one and only wedding about 15/20 years ago. It was for my sister.

I've never been to a funeral.

I was invited to my cousin's wedding party early this summer. I felt somehow good to receive a non-bureaucratic personal letter after a long time but I was not interested to go to the wedding party or to stay in touch with my cousin so I just ignored it.

I've been to family weddings in the past. I've been invited to the wedding of one of my lab mates in grad school and it will be during the Labor Day weekend. She's a nice person and I've gotten along with her very well. This will be the first wedding outside my family that I attend.

Two weddings. My aunt's when I was a baby (there's a family wedding photo with me in my mum's arms). And then the wedding of another aunt when I was 22. Both her and the groom were 50 and marrying for the first time.

The next one will be my brother who is planning on getting married in May. Planning to that is, they've been making plans since before my niece was born 3 years ago.

I don't think I have been to many, but then again not many relatives or other people we know have gotten married really, but the people in my life who have got married have invited me but I don't like weddings. I like the reception bit but I don't like those all-day weddings. It's more of an endurance than an enjoyment.

I have not been invited to very many except by luck.

I was invited to three weddings for three people who I worked with. The last one I was in because a close friend of mine got married.

Then there was another girl I was upset with for a long time because I knew she was getting married and she did not even bother to contact me in seeing if I wanted to go. I was mad because I thought she was my friend and I had even mentioned it to her that it hurt me. She was callous about it by saying, "Oh don't be hurt, not all of my friends could go."
