They'd wonder why you didn't elope rather than tease people with the possibility they could attend.
I got married on a Thursday afternoon, but only immediate family was invited (and we made it clear they weren't obligated to be there if it was any sort of hardship). Then we had a small reception for extended family and friends that weekend.

I am looking to drop about a grand on my son's rehearsal dinner *NM*

Well, part of it is that the rehearsal dinner isn't on the $5k budget.

It is avoidable, but people will treat you like you're a nutcase if you don't do most of the things

Everybody I have ever talked to that had a big, expensive wedding has told me that in hindsight...

It is lame to expect the father of the bride to shell out tens of thousands for a party

I can't imagine someone in America announcing their wedding was on a weekday.
