Regret not putting “adults only” on invitations

I am so sorry. Sometimes we need to put etiquette aside and be straight up. I personally do not see why saying Adults only is bad on the invite. Honestly, I am one of those people that do not look at wedding websites so if it is not in the invitation I won't know anything. Well then they can bring their child and find a sitter lol.

View Quoted Comment Exactly! I actually have a close friend who is bringing her teenagers for the vacation but established that they won’t be at the wedding. They’re about to make a lot of money on this trip I guess!

I agree with PP. if there are any people that haven’t responded that have kids you might want to touch base with them right away.

Yup, I definitely agree with Cyndy.

If people blatantly ignored the “number seats reserved” it shouldn’t matter if you said adults only or not, that’s on them.

If I even think my son may be invited anywhere and I’m not sure, I ask. Whether it be to a wedding or just a party, I would never assume if his name wasn’t on the invite. So I think from the get-go these people are being rude for assuming their kids are invited. It is not wrong at all to tell them that it’s an adult event. Just do it ASAP, because the more time that goes by, the worse people will think of you. If they already bought tickets, not sure what to tell them. Teenagers can entertain themselves and many resorts have some kind of babysitting or kids club for the little ones.

That sounds like a them problem and not a you problem.
