As someone who lives far from all of my loved ones, every wedding I attend is a destination wedding! If the wedding is on any day but a Saturday, I very likely can not and will not attend. There are a few exceptions to this rule, but these are rare. It isn't fare for someone planning an event to not take out of town guests concerns in mind.
I understand your friend is excited to plan her wedding day, but she's effectively cut much of her guest list down by having a middle of the week party. Pretty smart if she is trying to keep costs down and still act like she is accomodating everyone...
I know you save money by doing a mid-week reception, but that just sounds awfully selfish to tell all the out of towners that they should make the effort... or just shady.
