Well, it's been 72 hours since we sent invitations and already two separate couples have asked if they can bring their kids. Are your children named on the invitation? No. Does it say "2 seats are reserved in your honor?" Yes. So I think you can answer the question on your own about whether kids are...

Damn people are ballsy. Or stupid.

My invitations are ready for pickup from the calligrapher. The whole RSVP headache is making me wait to get them back. I can't wait to send them out, but really dreading the hassle of the follow-up. Knowing FH's family, there will be a lot of phone calls made. :-/

Yeah, I think it's going to be more hassle with my family.

One of the cousins is one who got married last summer and the bride was THREE HOURS late. We stood around in a park drinking Budweiser from a cooler and were hammered by the time she got there. So yeah, their manners aren't the greatest.

I got alot of "anger" from friendly ww brides earlier because my wedding is 1. on a holiday weekend 2. a "destination" for guests, not me and 3. no kids. So, I caved and hired a friends daughter & son to watch out-of-town guest's kids the night of. I've booked a room at the hotel where "guests" can drop their kids and the kids can be entertained separately from the wedding festivities. And the parents can have a carefree evening without their kids. Locals, however, need to find a sitter! Our invitations say "adult reception to follow" and our RSVP cards for guests with kids have a section that asks specifically if they will be utilizing the sitting service. I know everyone I've invited who has children, so if I get a response that says yes, they're coming and no on the sitter, I am already prepared to contact that person to ask what they plan to do with their children that evening.
