Am I invited?

Just receive an invite to a wedding for a friend of my FH's family. The envelope is addressed to my FH. There is no inner envelope. We've been engaged for 10 months so this is not a recent development. Hotel rooms at the venue start at $400 so I don't anticipate they're looking to keep costs low....

Not sure if this was an oversight or bad etiquette.

Pretty annoyed considering we are inviting 10 people from this particular family to our wedding (grandma/grandpa, mom/dad, 3 kids/spouses)

    I'm following along with PPs, definitely have FH reach out and ask if you're invited.

    If you're definitely not welcome, I'd decline and seriously rethink those invites!

    Seriously, just ask. If it's an oversight, shit happens.

    If it were on purpose? One gnome coming up.

    Could you have your FH ask? Some people are just ignorant when it comes to etiquette. My old roommate sent me her wedding invitation a few months ago and it was only addressed to me. I met with her for lunch a few days later and she said "are you and FH going to be able to come?" She just didn't know. That could be the case here.

    I think I would probably enjoy a monogrammed garden gnome as a wedding gift.... but that's just me.
