To find this wedding invitation a bit insulting

I've been invited to a friend's wedding. The invitation states I've been invited to the marriage ceremony at 2pm and to the evening celebration at 8pm.

Another friend has also received an invitation which is the standard one to the marriage ceremony 'followed by a reception at.......'.

The wedding is twenty miles from where we live so obviously we're expected to kick our heels for the five hours or so between the end of the ceremony and the start of the evening celebration.

AIBU to find this a bit insulting?

Yeah, it's an evening invite really but they are also inviting you to the ceremony. 20 miles isn't that far - so go if you can find time. But if it's going to cause you inconvenience then RSVP that you won't be able to attend the ceremony itself but would love to come to the evening reception. No need to be insulted. And regardless of not being invited to the wedding breakfast - it is nice to be invited to the evening bit.
