Children at wedding

Typically for kids in the wedding party there is an exception...however one issue you may have is getting across the age limit you want. Most times it is either no kids or kids allowed. There are people who might be a bit upset that their 10 year old can come...but their 8 year old can't. Then you start running into issues with people wanting exceptions and things get out of hand. That's why it usually works out better either no kids or all kids...

Allowing kids over 10 and not their siblings is going to cause way more drama than making an exception for your nephew who is also in the wedding.

I agree with what everyone else is saying too. It will be hard to put an age limit on it. You might to ask your venue about the food and if children will count for your final count. We decided to invite all kids but kids under 4 will not count towards final count since we are having a buffet style dinner.

View Quoted Comment None of the people I’m inviting have a ten year old and then a younger sibling. If any are under ten than the rest of their kids are too. If that makes any sense I’m terrible at explaining things. The main reason it’s ten and up is because the youngest sibling between the two of us who is our flower girl will be ten. And majority of people who are coming have their kids that are ten and up.

Wedding party children are the exception I believe. I don't have children coming to the wedding either, but on of my BMs is pregnant and will be nursing when it's time for the wedding. I've decided it's more important for her to be there than to uphold a strict "no children" rule.

I am doing the same, the only kids that will be attending the wedding are the ones that is in the wedding which is two. There is nothing wrong with letting people know that, and if they have an issue then oh well.

The last wedding I went to they said no kids but the ring bearer and flower girls were still there. I don’t think anyone would think twice about it since they are technically part of the wedding party.
