Yeah I can see how being invited somewhere, even if the invitation was forced, can allow you to meet other people. In some instances, like weddings, people are forced to invite others that they would normally not invite due to either not knowing them well or not really caring for the person. I know when I had my graduation party, I had to invite people I honestly didn't want to invite. Unfortunately it happens. Yeah most likely your distant relative's parents told her to invite you and your side of the family. It's very common.
