To feel left out?

I am not looking for sympathy and I hate moaning but could do with some opinions please.
My son is getting married soon to a lovely girl and I am delighted for them. However, I feel our side of the family is being left out of everything.
His fiancée has chosen her mum, sister and niece to be her bridesmaids whilst my daughter and four grandchildren have given no special role to play. My son has asked my other two sons to be joint Best Man but my daughter has been left out.
I wasn't asked if I would like to go with my future dil to look at wedding dresses, only her family and she constantly points out wedding related themes to her family on social media but never includes my name.
I apologise for the whinge but I do feel hurt, rightly or wrongly.

What are conspicuous weddings for?
