Was Paris Hilton invited at Nicole Richie’s wedding?

According to numerous reports, Nicole Richie got married this past Saturday. All the articles agree that Paris Hilton was not invited to her wedding. Is this true or just an assumption made by the media?

Recently, E! News reported that Paris was in fact invited, but declined to attend the wedding because “she had another commitment.” An unknown source close to Paris says that she was busy shooting her reality show in Las Vegas and celebrating her long time friend Jennifer Rovero’s birthday, which took place on Saturday, too. However, your news media did not report this in their Nicole Richie articles. Co-star Brooke Mueller, by the way, did not attend Jennifer’s birthday party.

The source also adds: “This was planned months ago. Paris sent Nicole and Joel a wedding gift to congratulate them and wishes them both the best.”

Other unknown sources report a different story on different websites, so it’s difficult to say who’s telling the truth since no one wants to reveal their source. But E! News seems more reliable. Still, it’s hard to believe she missed her childhood best friend’s wedding!

I was disgusted by the rumor that Nicole didn’t invite her. Nicole owes SO MUCH to Paris, including 90% of the reason she’s famous & has had the opportunities she’s had in the past few years. I sincerely hope Paris was invited. And if she wasn’t, I hope Paris has better friends in people like Brooke & Allison now.

It’s a trciky one. The only time they became friendly again was when they were doing a new season of the Simple Life, even when Paris was dating Benji – they never hung out. The last time was when their childhood friend passed away. They’re just not friends anymore, which happens. I do agree with Benji (PHS poster, not Madden) that Nicole owes Paris a lot. But we’ve got to remember, this was a wedding, a private celebration and Nicole didn’t have to invite Paris because of their past, just like if Paris was invited, she didn’t have to accept the invitation. Another thing to remember is who the other guests were. I just don’t think it would’ve been a comfortable enviroment for her to be in. Nicole is doing her thing and Paris is doing hers. I just hope that Paris gets to have a day like this in the near future.

Personally, for me, there’s no reason why Nicole couldn’t invite Paris. Even if they grew apart, it doesn’t matter. I think you should always invite your childhood friend to your wedding. Unless… they’re really not talking to each other, which is probably not the case.

Scot, are you referring to Benji? Paris has seen Benji in past after they broke up. I don’t think she would feel uncomfortable next to him. I don’t think there’s anything bad between them. It’s not a reason not to invite her.

But bottom line is that we don’t know the whole story.

i just think bratty nicole distanced herself from paris 3 years ago to avoid going to jail for a long time. plus, nicole has always been very manipulative in the way she uses paris, she is friends with paris when it suits her, and then distances herself from her when she gains positive pubilicity from ostrasizing paris. paris is still someone that a lot of people and media love to hate. so nicole figured out long ago that by giving the impression that she has cut ties with paris, then she is seen as instantly in a better light.

i find it odd that paris wasn’t invited, much less asked to be in the wedding. even stranger is that nicole apparently did not invite nicky hilton either. i don’t think it’s plauisble that either one, if invited, would not have cleared their schedules to attend if they were otherwise on good terms with nicole. so by extension, i think the safe bet is that nicole did not invite either paris or nicky.
