Are you inviting children?

View Quoted Comment Exactly. That’s why our rule was our (4yrold) daughter obviously .. my sisters two (8 and 12) and his brothers two (5 and 3)

No!!! We are having our wedding, cocktail hour & half and reception at a high end Casino & Resort.

You wouldn’t take your 3-10yo to a casino where you’ll be drinking and gambling would you? So why do that at a wedding- when it’s been clearly posted a YEAR in advance that: “Due to the venue, we regret to inform you that no one under 18 is permitted.” ??

And yet yet we are getting people “threatening” not to come( they have family in the area they live and money to hire a sitter) if they can’t bring their 5 & 8yo! “NOOOOO THEY CAN NOT COME. Too bad you won’t be there.” Is MY reply. FH needs to work on his.

Nope! We’re having a small adult only destination wedding. Our venue maxes out at 60 guests. So that doesn’t leave additional space for children anyway. My future step daughter (11 by the time of the wedding) will be part of the ceremony. But then she will hang out with the other children and teenagers in the hotel during cocktail hour and reception.

The wonderful thing is that none of my friends are freaking out about us having an adult only wedding. I think they see the time away from their children as a nice break.

Yes; best man/maid of honor have 2 kids who dont have anyone else and i cant imagine not having them as part of my day. Same goes for another of the groomsmen. We will have close to 10 kids at the wedding if all show, all under the age of 5.

Yes, we're inviting kids!!

We are inviting kids and having a game/crafts table for them as well as songs just for them.

I am inviting FH daughter and 1 BMs daughter, that is it though. We let most of our guests know prior to STDs there will be no children and all of them were (surprisingly) super excited for this. They are ready to have a kid free night with food and drinks and dancing.

I don’t have children and none of my family will be there so I’m unsure of how the list looks on my FHs side other than his granddaughter who is the flower girl

We are inviting children, but it helps that we are having it at Gmail's house and she runs a day care so there is a fenced in playground, and a play place inside as well.

We are allowing kids in ours. Most of our family have kids and our children will be in the wedding party. The kids we know love to have fun and dance.

Yes plenty of kids coming but I plan on having a table for them with coloring books and crayons and markers

We are not inviting anyone under the age of 21 to our ceremony or reception. We are getting married in the French Quarter in New Orleans and our venue (along with pretty much everything to do there!) has an age restriction. We know this may limit the amount of people who attend, but we would rather have everyone there just enjoy a nice adult getaway. Plus, what kind of fun would it be for kids to be trapped in a hotel room for several days?

I love kids, but we’re doing adults only. I’m a teacher and enjoy my kid-free time 😉

They are "invited," but everyone under 18 will be in a separate room with a sitter. We were going to allow older kids, but FH and I couldn't agree on an age. I said 13+, but since he "has 9 year old cousins," he wanted the age to be 9. I have nieces and nephews ranging from 2 to 6, so I felt that he was favoring his family's kids over mine. Plus, his mom never gave me any kids with the guest list, just the adults, so I just made it official that everyone under 18 had to stay with the sitters I'm hiring if they came with their parents. I think the guest list would have been over capacity if we allowed all kids, so this is just easier.

We’re allowed children to come, mainly because we both understand it’s hard for some partners to find babysitters.

Yes, but only close family's children like nieces and cousins

Yes only bridal party's children

This was a hard one for us, til we realized we were really far over our guest list limit. Many of my family members have 4+ children, and that adds up fast! We’re doing 18 years old and up only, with the exception of our flower girls and ring bearers.

Nope! So happy about this!
