A smart decision from the couple.
Inviting the noble loaded guy who makes magic thingies for a living = very nice wedding gift incoming
Hoping our Mc will stand his ground, even if i can already see the "a wedding is not that bad every now and then" conclusion.

What if he's just the black sheep of the LGBTQ+ community and the hetero community ie. asexual ?
please tell me you don't actually consider ace as black sheep and is just using a common example
the pride community is supposed to let people show their differences with pride instead of hiding it with shame
(unless it's pdf files and stuff like that)
what makes asexuals a "disgrace" to them?

It's just that when we get flak, it's usually from everyone. We lack sexuality in a community that celebrates sexuality, and oftentimes, members of the LGBTQ+ community can be just as hurtful to us as any other group, especially bi/pan sexuals who are attracted to everyone and are unable to understand us. For straight people and gay people, we can at least be like "well how do you feel about x gender you're not attracted to", but because we can't use that example for them, they're often less able to understand us and can, in their lack of understanding, easily talk down to us.

We get told we aren't really asexual and there's just something wrong with us and we need help, we get every variation of "you just haven't met the right person yet", we get put down for rejecting people because they "might be able to fix us", we get put down for telling people we don't like or want sex and not magically changing our minds later on in the relationship despite constantly affirming our stances, and we get put down for not having sex because "you might like it if you try it", hell, sometimes you're even considered abusive if you don't want to have sex with someone. When we have sexless romantic relationships with each other or people who otherwise don't care about sex, we're degraded as "not having a real relationship" because there's no sex, and if we do it, either to placate a partner from a different sexuality or just out of curiosity, we get called fake because "real asexuals don't have sex" from the same people that talk down to us for not having sex to begin with. We're ill or losers for not having sex, and we're liars if we do.

We're an enigma to non-asexuals, and in everyone else's minds, that means we're fair game to talk down to, to treat as if we're faking it for attention, or we're somehow lesser. Honestly, I kinda agree we're the black sheep because everyone else is on one end of the spectrum and we're on the far opposite end, and honestly, sometimes I wish we weren't considered LGBTQ+ so we didn't have to put ourselves in increasingly sexualized spaces for the sake of "pride" that oftentimes doesn't consider us. With parades becoming more about sex, society becoming more sexualized in general, and lack of experience being one of the top insults people love to throw around, it's started to feel like the world is made for everyone but us.

Attending a wedding of someone you barely know. With lots more people you don't know at all. Yeah, count me out.
you go to eat the thousands of dollars in fancy food that other people have paid for, and drink the thousands of dollars in fancy booze other people have paid for.

A wedding, is a party that costs as much as a down payment for a house or a luxury car.

Someone gave you a more detailed explanation that are essentially what i think but here's some shit i've been told by hetero people more than once "You just didn't find the good person" and "You just didn't had good sex with a woman" and here's shit i've been told by people from the so called community celebrating difference with pride more than once too "You're just faking it and trying to coast on the LGBT movement for clout", "You're just in the closet and don't want to admit it", "ace is a choice not and orientation" (this one has me confused) and from both groups "You can't not love sex you just didn't find you're orientation yet".

It's funny because i've been (and still are) actually married for 14 years to an ace woman (you don't want to know the shit i've been told about this), we're just into the romance part of the relationship and not the sex part (we've tried believe me) and i'm told this shit by sad people incapable of keeping a relationship for more than half a decade, it's just that in this increasingly sexualized society people can't fathom someone being happily in a relationship without sex.

Of you somehow were offended my bad it wasn't my intention but i'm just sick of seeing people trying to put people, characters and historical figures in one of the two categories.

I guess he won't attend(Unless the couple managed to convince him in next chapter)

but maybe send his employee in his stead ? or maybe they will ask him to let them could work too.

iirc, the girl's kinda know this couple for a while via guild when she request for materials. so to eh... firm their work connection.

and the guy might get his chance to finally get some gf at the wedding lol.
