What are your thoughts on this? I've never been to a wedding without kids. Does that mean there are no ring bearers and/or flower girls?

We could potentially have as many as 30 kids running around. Our venue even has a mini playground for them! But I'm just curious how this works in case we decide to have the wedding without kids.

I'd rather have no kids, but the MOH and BM have two little ones and will be traveling out of state for the wedding, so I am not going to say they can't bring the kids. But they might arrange not to. For most everyone else, I am just addressing to the person or couple I am inviting. Practically, there are simply too many people in my family for us to afford to feed their kids, too. And I would like to have some friends there as well. That will likely mean that some cannot or will not come.
I'm not planning on a ring bearer or flower girl, either, even though our friends' kids could do it if they come. I just would rather not the fuss.
