Invitation Wording 🖋

“You are cordially invited to the wedding of...”
“The pleasure of your company is requested at the wedding of...”
“Please join us for a wedding celebration for...”Pretty much any wording that doesn’t mention your parents would be fine.
You don’t need to say that kids aren’t invited, just don’t invite kids. Invitations are about who you want there, not who you don’t. On your RSVP, include a line that says “we have reserved __ seats in your honor” so they can’t add extra guests.

In addition to everything Caytlyn has said, if you have a wedding website, you can put the no children information under FAQs on there. "Unfortunately, due to budget/venue constraints, we are unable to accommodate children/anyone other than those addressed on the invitation."

A separate notes cards in the envelope will be great. And spread the word also via word of mouth to really drive it home.

This is perfect! Also if you want to make it clear, you can always put "Adults Only"

I think all the wording suggestions from Caytlyn would work well! As for the no kids, we're putting the "__ seats have been reserved in your honour" wording on the RSVP cards, not listing kids on the invites, and stating on the website that only children in the ceremony are invited to the reception. We're avoiding the "budget/venue" limitation wording because it's a lie for us, and honestly we just don't want kids there that aren't in the ceremony, so we're just being open with it. It's our event and we don't want to lie to the guests just to get what we want!
