Invitations created - how to mention no kids

So for addressing the envelopes, just put the names of those that are invited. So if it's a couple with kids, only put the couple's names on it: "Mr. and Mrs. Smith". Also, when the online RSVP, just have their names on it with no option to add anyone onto their invite.

I know with Zola, you (account owner) can add plus ones to people by going to their name and updating/adding it on per guest. So if The Knot is the same, I don't think you'll have a problem with confusion. As long as the people you want to have a plus one have that attached to their name, then you should be fine.

People will get the hint when they see that their kid(s)' name isn't on the envelope and RSVP that the kids aren't invited.

Since you're using the Knot RSVP system in which each guest has to reply by name, I think it will be very clear to people that kids are not included. But I think you'll be fine with the combination of addressing people by name and using the Knot for RSVPs. You can add the "guest" option through the Knot to the people who you're giving plus ones to

Just address invites to the people you're inviting, no need to mention who you are not inviting. Set up your RSVP so they can't add anyone who's not on the list. If anyone reaches out just say "Oh, the invitation was just for you and Mrs. H, hope you can make it!". No need to overexplain.

Just don't invite kids. Address the invites to Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Not Mr. and Mrs. Smith and family. We used The Knot for our online RSVP's and did not allow guests to add anyone as a plus one. People get the hint when their children's name are not on the invitation.

We also put "we love kids, but we kindly ask that you help us keep this an adult affair" on our wedding website.

The Knot lets you list only the people who are invited on the RSVP page. So they can check yes/no for John Smith, yes/no for Jane Doe, and that's it.

I have been struggling with this one as well. I only addressed the envelopes with the invited guests but if they RSVP with their kids I'm just going to live it with. They are mostly my cousins and their kids so it won't be non family kids. I prefer no kids but didn't want that battle with family, not worth it in my opinion. I've spoken with my venue about this and if it ends being a lot of kids we will work out a kids meal option.


Good luck be aware some peopleay not attend bc they can't bring their kids. Common equitte says only the ones on the envelope are invited but that doesn't seem to be the deal anymore.
