This just occurred to me while watching Series 1 recently . . .

Did they ever give a reason why Monica wasn't invited to Rachel's wedding to Barry? They were close friends through high school, it was apparently a large wedding -- doesn't seem to make sense that she wouldn't have been invited.

Just curious, wondering if I missed an explanation along the way.

I guess that Monica and Rachel were apart, otherwise Rachel would have known Monica's friends. I remember a flashback in the old pub where the guys used to hang out, with Monica and Chandler playing pool and a snobby Rachel chatting with two posh friends of her. It seemed that Monica and Rachel were friends, but were not seeing each other very often. That would explain why Miss Snobby had not invited Miss Neatness to her upper-class posh wedding.

Your brain at this moment is composed of brigades of tiny Bolivian soldiers. They are tired and muddy from their long march through the night. There are holes in their boots and they are hungry. They need to be fed. They need the Bolivian Marching Powder.

They just drifted apart.

I think more interesting is, why Monica was invited to Barry and Mindy's wedding?

Any ideas?

She must have been. Why else would she�ve been there, plus when you are invited to a wedding, you are normally allowed to bring one more guest. Well, Rachel brought Ross, so ...

I don't know why, but I do remember that in the coffee house, or possibly back in the apartment, Monica makes a remark about not being invited to Rachel's wedding.
