The OP and her husband were left out. Family pictures including
everyone but the bride/grooms only uncle is actually pretty
crappy.

I got the impression everyone in the photos was either directly
related to the bride or groom (sibling, parent, child,
grandparent of the people getting married) or in the wedding
party. I wouldn’t attribute malice or exclusion when it is
reasonable to want the photos as they were taken.

I think culture matters in this scenario. If I recall
correctly, OP’s husband comes from a family with similar
cultural values to my own. It would be unthinkable that an
uncle would be left out of family pictures at an important
occasion. Even if the bride and groom wanted pictures with just
the immediate relations, we would do that and then also do
pictures with the rest of the family. I can see why they are
hurt. I would remind OP that it seems like the family does care
about them generally and they simply may not realize the import
of this to you. I would do your best, hard as it is, to not
take it to heart.
