I can understand the difficulty of getting random wedding guests' permission, but the mother of the bride and father of the bride are blurred in those videos. I can't imagine it is too hard to get permission from the immediate family unless they didn't want to cooperate.

I just hate for anyone to be estranged from immediate family. It makes me sad.

Seeing all of the girls at the spa getting their little pedicures was the cutest thing EVER.

I thought their cake was BEAUTIFUL (and I loved the flowers).

I also thought it was neat to see Jon's family there.

Well, Kate has already said that her relationship with her parents is difficult & it seems as though they are pretty much estranged at the moment. I doubt that either party (Jon/Kate/production or Kate's parents) wanted them shown on TV.
