No Kids At The Wedding

Hi, I am also planning a wedding that I don`t want kids at. But my finaces family wants the kids to be there. I think that they are loud and disruptive. One idea, is to have a "day care" like idea. Where the parents can bring the kids to the wedding but there is someone there watching them in another room during the wedding. The would work well for small children. Some people cant get babysitters or whatever. If you can convince him to not invite kids, you can put on your invitation, "we have reserved 2 seats in your honor" this way people know not to bring their kids! Hope this helps!

I think that the groom should have just as much say in who gets invited to the wedding. It is his wedding too. How would you like it if he told you that you couldn`t invite a good friend of yours because he didn`t think they would act appropriately. Would you not invite them? You need to sit down together to come up with a compromise, it`s not up to anyone else to make that decision for you. This is what married couples do, make decisions together. You may need to look at how important it is to you that you not have kids there and balance it with how important it is to him that he does have kids there. Perhaps this may help to put things into perspective a bit.
