Kid friendly or Adult only wedding?

View Quoted Comment I honestly didn’t even think about it affecting the guest count lol

View Quoted Comment I get that! Our son will be 3 at the time of our wedding and he’s the youngest in our two families so babysitters won’t be a problem for our guests

View Quoted Comment Does it make your guest count much higher?

View Quoted Comment That isn’t a problem for us! My fiancé and I have the youngest (who will be 3) and my sisters kids are in the wedding party. His 2 brothers has kids that won’t be in attendance but they ALWAYS have babysitters lined up!

View Quoted Comment I agree 100% with that statement!

View Quoted Comment As long as they are well behaved then that’s good!

View Quoted Comment I agree with everything you said! We have an almost 3 year old who MUST be in the wedding because I absolutely REFUSE to get married without my baby there lol and then my niece and nephews who will be 9,7,&15 will also be in attendance in the wedding party. Once it hits a certain time they will all go upstairs to the hotel room for bedtime!

View Quoted Comment I completely agree with this statement!

View Quoted Comment Yes my biggest fear was a kid crying, yelling or throwing a fit during our ceremony

View Quoted Comment Yes that's the only downside, I counted 16 kids 12 and under and there are a couple more in the teenage years. If there were leas kids in the family, though, we would have been able to get away with saying no kids. It's not a big deal for us though, all the kids are always included in the family weddings, they'll be fine 👍

View Quoted Comment Does your venue offer kids meals or something different for the kids? I seen a few venues that offered that

View Quoted Comment I dont think so, but the kids should all be fine with the food that we chose! There won't be any infants that can't eat solid/certain foods. We also don't have to pay for the food allotted for children under 3, which is really nice.

View Quoted Comment Yea. Most of the kids are "grown" so to speak. There aren't many newborn/toddler aged kids.

View Quoted Comment That’s a perfect solution! You can have your child involved in the wedding portion, then have care-free adult-only fun at the reception!

View Quoted Comment Oh yes that’s great!

View Quoted Comment That’s good turn, older kids are different!

Our wedding is pretty much adult only. We rented a place right on the lake that also has a swimming pool and a fire pit (along with alcohol). We didn't want people drinking and losing track of their kids or them falling in the water or burning themselves. I'm a worry wart and if there was kids there, I would be watching them the whole time instead of enjoying my own wedding.

I say go for it and enjoy your day!

View Quoted Comment That’s the plan! Lol I plan to enjoy my night completely 🤣

View Quoted Comment Oh yes that location would worry me as well, I would be so paranoid lol. That seems like a cute fun venue though
