The most important question hasn't been asked, which is (something like): What does this confirmation mean to your niece and her family? Are they under the impression that the girl is being confirmed as a soldier for Christ, growing in grace and being fortified in her resolve to stand firm against the enemies of religion?

If they are, then setting aside the invalidity of the sacrament, they have good Catholic impulses which should be affirmed and can be affirmed without giving scandal. Attending the reception seems like a good idea at least. You can use mental reservations to avoid agreeing with the invalidity of the sacrament and of the Conciliar Institution.
.
If, on the other hand (and probably more likely, unfortunately) this occasion is viewed as just some vague, cultural rite of passage, the only real reason to attend the reception would be to be a positive influence to correct that. If you have a good relationship with the people in question then you can use that and talk to them about the true meaning of the sacrament of confirmation. You don't have to bullrush in there and grab the microphone to announce its invalidity. But you can tell them the traditional doctrine, see how they react, see if it piques their interest.
.
There is also a middle ground between the two-- that the niece and family do have some vague understanding that confirmation is an important religious ritual, to be done for its own sake rather than just for the maintenance of culture/custom, but are very ignorant of what it actually means. In that situation you could justify going to hopefully find yourself in a position to instruct or edify by sharing the traditional doctrine.

This occasion may be one for fraternal correction, but bear in mind that fraternal correction is something that is governed by prudence. We do not have an obligation to compulsively and severely correct all errors at all times; on the contrary, sometimes we have an obligation to refrain from fraternal correction. One of the factors St. Thomas requires, when discussing whether we should correct others, is if our correction can be predicted to do any good. And when issuing fraternal correction, our goal is to succeed in converting hearts. So don't just go there and start flapping your lips about Novus Ordo this and Novus Ordo that, as though it were a box you needed to check. That would be rash, and would probably jeopardize future opportunities to positively influence these people.
