Are you inviting children?

Yes, but only families children. This is the compromise since i really didn't want to invite any children but my FH wants his cousins kids to be invited and my cousins 5 year old looked at me and asked if he could come to my wedding, how could I say no!

We did! I couldn’t imagine not sharing my wedding with my nephews! Plus, we had out of town guests that wouldn’t have had childcare. They were such a blast on the dance floor! I think the adults did more complaining when it started raining than the children did all day!

I have 3 cousins in their teens but under 18 still so they will be there, besides them, and the flower girls (5 and 2) being there in the beginning before being picked up later in the evening- it will be pretty well adults only. Everyone (including guests with young kids) were happy to hear this

My Fiancé has 5 younger siblings so we will be having between 10-15 kids under the age of 10. As he has little cousins too. And they are all super excited about it and have been to multiple family weddings.

I'm inviting kids to my wedding but only for family members. Friends and coworkers who have kids I'm not inviting.
As well, sometime the venue will offer discounts for the children since they either have a different meal or dont consume alcohol.

Nope. No kids under the age of 14 or whatever age our youngest cousins will be.

We're inviting kids. We were originally going no kids with the exception of the Bridal party, but, when we looked at the guest list, it meant only two other people (four kids total) couldn't bring theirs. At that point, it was just "might as well"...lol

Nope. We’re keeping it small so that means no kids for sure

I am going to have my nephew, who will be 14 or 15 at the time and my FH niece and nephew. We don’t want to add mower children, because of coat for food and different meals for them, then having to plan children activities

This is a tough call for us. FH has 3 nephews who will obviously be invited, but friends of ours have 4 kids and neither of us know any of them (we met two at one event but only for like 20 minutes). We might just keep it to family and wedding party kids only.

We may have 1 younger child but otherwise we have made it adults only.

Absolutely! We have at least 7 children under 10 yrs old and about 7 youth between 10-18 yrs old. They're close enough they're basically family ❤

We have 9 children under the age of 12 coming- we have a table separate for them. My two youngest sisters are under 12 and I couldn't imagine them not being there so we definitely invited kids!

WOW...that was so cute fall!

Yes we invite guests with there kids if that's what they want! But I think we will have only 2 kids! My goddaughter who is 8 years old and my girlfriend daughter who will be then 3 years and few month old. We have some other kids, but they all will be much younger, so I dont think parents will want them with them!

We are not, it would just increase our guest list too much and its not a children fun friendly venue. However my future step daughter and future SIL who will be adolescents will be there.

We did have children as family is important and the time together is always there for us to see each other.

Nope. I have 3 exceptions. My neice who is 2, the MOH daughter/our honorary flower girl, my cousins daughter 3 who is flying in from winnepeg with my aunt and my fiances cousin 4, from toronto. But the cousin and my neice wont be there. Mind you the youngest guest is 12. But they dont count they dont feel the need to run around during dinner lol

We only had a few - our niece and nephew, who were the flower girl and ring bearer, and 3 younger cousins under 18.

We both have cousins that have kids, and if we opened it up to those kids, we'd have around 25 kids running around who are quite young. The cousins who left their kids at home had a blast and enjoyed not worrying about their little ones!

Yes! kids are welcome!

Our wedding was so tiny, but it was very child friendly. Our 2 kids had instrumental roles in the ceremony and planning. We saw our wedding as much about them as it was about us. We did end up inviting immediate family to what was going to be an elopement and we extended the invitation to my SIL's 2 kids. They didn't attend because it was a school night and we live about an hour away which would have made it a late night, but we would have been happy to have them there.

Yes were having kids! i cant not invite all the kiddies in our lives!

Mostly no!

The only 2 children that will be at our wedding will by my future hubby's sisters 2 kids since it's really important to him that they be there since he doesn't have a large family. Other than that, there will be no children. We want parents to be able to have a night off and enjoy themselves at our wedding, and I really don't want to worry about children crying during key moments of the big day.

We put "Adults only" right on the invite for both the ceremony and the reception

The only children that were at our wedding were our nieces and nephews. My nephew was the ring bearer, and my husbands niece was the flower girl. We could not exclude their siblings, so those were the only children allowed.

We did have some push back from people, but its our day and thats what we wanted

We're having a few children who are related to us, but only a total of seven children will be at the wedding and one of them will be almost 15

There won’t be any small children, by the time we get married the youngest will be seven and he is ours. The rest will be older and there won’t be the worry that someone will have a melt down as they all know how to behave really well.

Nope! No kids, it'll be after their bedtime anyway.


I don't want to worry about censoring myset or my guests, or having a little ones temper tantrum ruin memories.

We’re doing no kids under 12. Ultimately it was a numbers things for us since our venue cap is 100. The only kids in our family are our cousin’s kids. My Fiancé has almost 15 cousins, and about half of them have kids so it was really adding up. To us, it was more important to invite more of our friends than our cousin’s 2 year olds that we barely see and won’t remember the day lol. Each situation is unique so go with what feels right.

We only invited two kids : Our flower girl and ring bearer.

The only small child there will be my niece, she's 2 and the sweetest kid. So I couldn't not have her there. Then there's my 2 younger cousins who will be 15 and 13 at the time are close to me and are great kids. Apart from that, no one else that we're inviting have small kids so it's not really an issue

The youngest at our wedding will be my FH's cousins who are about 10 and 12, we felt we really couldn't exclude first cousins due to age. They're well behaved though so we shouldn't be having any mishaps.

Heck no! No kids at our wedding - have to be 18+ to attend. Not only do we have family with kids that don't behave, but we saved on not paying for a plate of food they won't finish as well as the corkage fee!

We're inviting only close children of the family, i.e. cousin's newborn and sister in law's newborn, in addition to the older second cousins who are in their teens.
