    No I’m doing it as well. The only kids that will be my kids and our nieces and nephews. Mostly because they’re part of the wedding.

    Only kids are the ones in the wedding (4). I'm a teacher and having kids running around would not let me have a good time at all plus it's expensive.

    No kids at my wedding! I work with kids 50+ hours a week and I was adamant about not having any in attendance. There’s no flower girl or ring bearer and I don’t have kids or nieces/nephews.

    We are having a no kids wedding aside from my FH and my siblings (6 under 18 years old). It’s a destination and I have always wanted a no kid wedding from past experiences lol

    I think it’s a lot of work having to keep them entertained and I want to enjoy my day. From going to a past family wedding the kids were getting into everything.

    Literally the first thing we decided on was to have a kids free wedding. We will not be having any children in our wedding party (flower girl, ring bearer, etc), and zero children as guests. I’ve been to so many weddings, and at all of them children have always been one of the main issues- children throwing tantrums during the ceremony (to the point of having to stop the ceremony so they could be removed), kids running around during the ceremony (my cousin’s wedding video was ruined by this- you can hear kids laughing & screaming through most of it, and at one point you see kids rolling down a hill in the background while they are taking their vows!), getting into everything, making messes at dinner... not to mention the parents & grandparents can’t just relax and have fun. I knew I didn’t want that vibe at my wedding!

    We're having a no kids wedding also. No ring bearers or flower girls either. The youngest guest will be my niece who is 11. It was going to be too hard as we are limited on space and it is down right expensive. Not to sound like a total jerk, but I don't want a bunch of little ones taking up space on the dancefloor. I've seen it too many times they get stepped on and knocked over. For both sides, my fiance and I have lots of cousins with little ones. We even did the big no-no and put no kids on our save the dates and invites. We worded it as politely as we could, but there are still some people that you just have to spell it out for. I didn't want to have to call people when I got their RSVPs back and even though I addressed it to only Mr and Mrs, they included their little ones. It's our wedding. 🤷‍♀️

    I did the same thing - put it on our save the dates and invites politely so they could plan ahead for childcare but I guess that’s not working out too well. We’re also having a no kids wedding because it’s so much more expensive and not to sound rude, but they’re a huge distraction. I want to mingle and have a good time with my friends and family without having to pay attention to their child every five seconds. We’ve had negative responses to our decision though and I’m expecting a lot of people to decline our invitation because of it. But hey, what are you gonna do if you and your FH are the only ones paying for everything!? 🤷🏼‍♀️

    Nope! We decided on a kid free wedding. Our venue also strongly suggested that if we were going to have liquor at our wedding we didn't invite kids since there is a creek on site.

    Not at all. We are as well. The closest to a "kid" is one of my bridesmaids, whose mother is one of my other bridesmaids, and she is a teenager.

    We are doing an adults only wedding as well. I have a niece and nephew but my stepsister knows what I want and understands. My cousins and his cousins have a total of almost 20 kids combined so it would be too much to have them all there.
