Has this happened to anyone? and did you end up going? i'd find it extremely awkward if people that day asked me if i was going to the reception after..."uh i wasnt invited"

ive known the bride and groom for many years, know their parents too, not close friends though, no mutual friends, i was actually surprised i got invited, but its the first time ive seen an invitation to the wedding but not the reception

i know they are in a tight budget so i understand if they are trying to save money, but in this situation, to me it seems like they want me to spend money on them (gift) but they dont want to return the favour

imo its kinda rude, either invite people to both or not invite at all right?
