    Adults only! No kids, no flower girl, no ring bearer. We have two people under the age of 21 but they’re over 18 so I’m good with that. We wanted everyone to kick back and relax. Plus one of my fiancé’s little cousins almost knocked over the cake table at a family members wedding so.. no thanks.

    Our wedding will be kid friendly because most people are traveling so it's easier for everyone to invite the kids.

    We are doing adults only simply for spacing limits. Our venue only holds so much and there are too many adults that we want there first!

    Adults only! I don’t have children and I want everyone to have a great time without watching for a little one. If you can’t get a baby sitter sorry you can’t join!
    Plus I want the attention on me and my FH without someone ripping my expensive AF dress.

    Adults only! The only two under 21 will be my niece (who will be 20 at the time) and FH's niece (8yo at the time), who is my junior bridesmaid.

    Kiddos welcome! Even though we don't have kids, the majority of our friends and family do and I couldn't imagine the little ones not being there. Besides that, I work as a preschool teacher and nanny on the side. It'd be weird to not have kids.

    Kids. If I said no kids I'd be having an elopement because my socail circle is currently all parents.
    I'm also having a dry, small, daytime wedding, so it's not like there's a mood or whatever for kids to alter. Most of them will either above age 8 and know us personally and well enough to behave or infants.

    Kid friendly. My nephew is the ring bearer and he needs other little ones to play with. My best friends little girl is the same age and so is my fiance's best friends boy.

    Kid friendly, although I don't believe there will be too many kids there anyway

    Kid friendly. I think a lot of guests will come without their kids, but I didn't want to take the chance of any guests declining just because they can't bring their kids.

    Kid Friendly. We rented a huge Villa for our wedding and all our immediate family is coming in from out of state so allowing kids is a must. But if our families were local then we would have an adult-only wedding

    We are doing adults only. There will be 2 teenagers there, my FH daughter and a BM's daughter, but that is it and everyone invited is super excited to have an adult night without their kiddos.

    Side question: Any suggeation on wording to place on the invitations to say adults only?

    Adults only. Besides the kids in the wedding party. Which is already too many lol. But no we don't want to be focused on screaming kids all night. So Adults only.

    Adults only! Making exceptions for our nieces and nephews (and of course any newborns that might exist by then) but I don't want to have to worry about other people's kids when I'm worried about everything else that day.
