It’s up to you to use your best judgement. There are many places where it definitely wouldn’t fly (a wedding for example), and it’s up you to read the room.
That said, most casual places usually don’t mind, and when with friends you probably shouldn’t, unless they’re chill. Common sense prevails above all else.
During the wedding ceremony, I agree it would be rude to be texting (unless it’s an emergency and I would step outside). But the wedding reception seems more casual and I wouldn’t feel bad glancing at my phone every now and then. It would be rude to be on your phone during the whole reception though. It makes it look like you’re not having fun there.

Don’t people take lots of photos at weddings on their phones?
I guess, but isn’t it considered inappropriate to be texting or browsing during the ceremony?
