How can I get my daughter to not hate me?

I want my daughter to be in my life again but she absolutely refuses. It all started almost 2 years ago when she was 16. She had gotten pregnant by a boy she had been seeing for about 3 months. I was so angry. I did everything I could to keep this from happening. We openly talked about , I kept condoms in her bathroom, and I even offered her birth control, but she refused saying "I don't need it, because I'm not doing anything" but I should have insisted. She was not a very responsible when it came to anything except school so of course when she said she wanted to keep it, I saw myself raising this child instead of her, so I kicked her out. She went to go live with the boy and his parents. She sent me text messages saying she hated me and didn't need me anymore. I thought two months and she'll be crawling back. Fast forward 18 months and she still refuses to see me. She's 18, graduated from high school going to college, and married to her baby's father. I didn't even get invited to the wedding. My granddaughter just turned 1 three weeks ago and I have never seen her in person. I wouldn't even know what she looked like if I didn't have a picture of her that I had to beg one of my daughter's friends for that was from 6 months ago. My daughter says that she will never let me be in the child's life and has changed her number on me several times. She's my only child and I realized now kicking her out may have been the wrong decision but I was so angry, and I didn't know what else to do. I hear that they're moving downstate some time next month and if they do I'm afraid I'll never see them again. Any advice? I'd really appreciated it. Thank you.
