You're clearly forgetting the fact that as a sitting president, any scheduled
public appearance is a major undertaking, mostly centered around security,
and that isn't his idea.  That's basically the job of the Secret Service.

Why does that matter?  Well, if he attended the wedding, most (if not all)
of the wedding guests would have to be vetted, which can run a lot of coin.
Further, if any of the Press follow along, they're going to be focused on
him, and that presents a major distraction.  The wedding is supposed to be
about the BRIDE, not one of the attending guests.

We can all take wild guesses at what he was thinking, having to miss his son's
wedding, but the fact of the matter is that in his absence, the attention was
on the young couple, not the Grand Cheeto.

It had absolutely nothing to do with what you ASSume he placed on the "value"
of the event.  It was logistics and making sure that he didn't pose a
distraction.
