HARLAN: Wedding invitation from friends missing some family members

My husband and I were invited to the wedding of lifelong family friends. Our son and daughter grew up with both the bride and groom. The wedding invitation we received came addressed on both the outside and inside envelope with just my name and my husband's name on them. I thought perhaps my son and daughter were receiving their own invites -- that was not the case. Other friends their age have received their own invitations. I was told by the groom's mother that this was an error and yes, they certainly are invited. However, the after-the-fact verbal invite has left our children feeling awkward and out of place, especially knowing that other friends have received their own invites. They are thinking they don't want to go. What are your thoughts?
