we are going over to Ireland for a relatives wedding and they have not invited any of the kids. It has made it tricky for us as all the relatives will also be at the wedding and we wouldn't trust just anyone to babysit.

Probably means we will just go to the evening do for just a couple of hours while a cousin babysits then we go back home so they can go to the wedding later on.

Nah. I'm getting married in the exotic location of Scotland ;-)
I've nout against kids but the emphasis should be on your guests.
My future brother in law and his wife have a three year old and a one year old. Thay haven't had a night out in years. People deserve a night off without the kids.

I'm only teasing, I totally agree.

The emphasis actually should be on you and who you are marrying. You are paying for it after all - you should invite whom you want!

Good thing you're not asian, SB. Weddings are for kids to run around in, not for adults to have fun ;)

I don't have kids so this doesn't affect me. If I did, and someone invited me and said no kids, not sure what I would do. Depends how easy babysitter was to hire. I don't think I'd be offended, I can understand the sentiment.

In this specific example, the couple whose kid was crying, were they just friends of the bride/groom? Did they not have a say in the matter?

I don't think a total ban should be in place, but if the to be wed wants a children free wedding then it should be respected since it is their big day afterall.



I agree.

I like kids but I hate it when they are screaming/whatever during the wedding vows. It's up to the parent to sit with them near the exit and take them outside if that happens!



I agree, I've been to wedding with Jake where he has started crying and I just walked outside with him, simple. Other times he has sat there quietly.



Would you rather leave the kids at home and enjoy yourself though?



No, I love playing with my kids!

(even though I only have one...)

I wouldn't mind children at my wedding- I'd rather the parents were able to come than tell them they can't bring their children and risk them not being able to find a babysitter.

Surely it would have been easier to type:

"No, I love playing with my kid"


Unless you have time to wait at work, as most contractors do
