Hi,

Children are invited to my wedding but I dont want people to feel the need to bring them. Is there a nice way to say that. Like children are welcome but don't feel like you have to bring them if you can get a sitter? Or should I just leave it up to the guests?

Just put on the invites "children welcome to join" or something along those lines. Or you can call each one and let them know. Or both!

If there's not a lot of kids/parents, I would let them know ahead of time: "Hey, just so you know, your children are welcome at our wedding, but if you'd rather get a sitter for them, that is fine too!"
You could also put this on your website if you have one, but in the end, your guests will do what they want. Some will get a sitter for a date-night while others bring the kids

I would just address to the parents and if they ask or rsvp with kids then its fine. If they ask then you can say they are welcome as well.

You could put a little thing on the Rsvp cards for how many seats you are reserving.
Or address the invites to just the parents and if they ask to bring their kids then you can go from there

Maybe at the bottom of the RSVP card or invitation you could put *Little ones welcome*? Just don't address them on the envelope? Or if your RSVP cards say ___ seats reserved you could put "up to ____ seats reserved" so they know it's not asked that you bring your kids more so allowed?
