Posted in Planning 24

I've made it clear from day 1 of planning that our wedding would be adult only and that I would be happy to help from babysitters, it's been fine with everyone. This morning I get a text from my childless aunt saying "You don't think they have seen their parents have a drink? So you have basically mandated that one parent stays home with the kids. You're funny. You don't want true adults at your wedding, just young adults with no real responsibility. Why don't you just say that?"

Seriously?! Most of my friends HAVE kids! I just want a night to kick back and enjoy the evening with my friends and family where no one has to worry about their little ones getting into something or leaving early because it's the kiddos bed time. GRRR!

Let's face it - kids are obnoxious and a nuisance at weddings. There, I said it, but it is true. You get ONE KID that acts out or you have an oblivious/not very good parent and the others will start in too. Parents will not watch their own children at weddings; you would not believe how many weddings I have attended where parents just "assumed" the venue staff or some random grandma would watch their unruly brats. Kids cannot help it that they are kids - parents can - but they just won't especially if they get busy sucking back drinks and socializing.

There comes a time in the wedding planning process where you stop caring about the criticism, do what you want to do, and if they want to cause drama or stress, just tell them the time and place and hope to see them there. this day is about YOU and your FH getting married. not about her and her petty drama that has no one backing her up. if she doesn't like it, she doesn't have to go!

I have children and those are the only ones invited to my wedding. IDK I was thinking my nephew can be invited but then to think about it I wouldn't want kids running around and be annoyed. Most of my friends have kids and don't have a problem leaving them with a sitter.
