Adult affair only?

Hi everyone! Im new to wedding wire. U all seem to have some great advice. We have to cut the guest list down to 200, so we decided to kids. Problem is my FH has a lot of family who has kids who are teens, and some 18+. I feel weird inviting only the 18+ and parents. FH thinks we should invite teens also but our guest list would jump to more than 250.. Is it rude to invite parents only? No kids? Or parents and 18+?

    You can have an adult only wedding def.If there are a lot of families with young kids you may have a higher decline rate. If all the kids live in the same house I wouldn't invite some kids and not others. To be honest I'm not sure the etiquette on inviting adult children that live outside the home. I *think* that would be okay IF you have a relationship with them on your own. If you do decide to go no kids please don't put "adults only" or similar anywhere on the invites, wedding website, etc. Just address the invites to the people you're inviting. Some people may RSVP back with their kids and in those cases you just call them up and say "I'm sorry for the confusion but the invite was only for so and so. I hope you can still come!". Good luck!
