    Hahaha, that's the spirit!! They'll be a wee bit of entertainment and I bet their parents will appreciate the ability to run off all that energy! Smiley laugh

    Adult only..we’re only having the kids who are in the wedding party. We know far too many children to invite.

    If I had money for kids, I would allow it. But the only kids are those in the wedding party

    Up to the parents. I'm ok with kids there! They're family too. If the parents can't get a sitter I still want them to be able to come, and if they want it to be a kid free fun time that's ok too.
