Wedding Invitation Ettiquette Question

[Guest]

This is going to be a tricky situation no matter how it is handled in

the invitations. The bride should expect that there will be some

guests who simply will not be able to find or maybe even aford

babysitting. There will also be a few who just don’t understand. For

better or for worse there will likely be a few less guests in

attendance b/c of the child-free part of the invitation. A wedding is

a family event and children are a part of family so family members are

the most likely to be offended.

Here’s my question- they want a kid-free reception (I don’t blame

them, our side of the family alone has a LOT of hyper active kids that

are young), and he and his bride-to-be are unsure how to phrase it on

the invitation in a way that is polite, but firm.
