Re: Kids at your reception.....

yes, my FH sisters both have children and they're invited..i have cousins that are younger and my brother..so yes..kids are invited...i'm hoping that his sisters have someone come to pick up the younger children after the Ch, because they're too young to really stay too late.

Re: Kids at your reception.....

yep. I wasn't planning on anybody younger than, say, high school age, but that would have included all the kids in my family. Then, when I talked to my fiance I discovered that he's got a long list of people with kids that he wants to invite. A lot of them will be coming from far away, so it would unfair to ask them to just leave the kids in the hotel or something, and if we invite the out of town kids, it would be pretty rude not to invite the local kids too.

Hopefully it shouldn't be more than 10 or so, and the rest should be older. We're not the kind of group that will be getting drunk and dancing on the tables and such anyway, so there's really no reason the party shouldn't be kid friendly.

Re: Kids at your reception.....

I don't plan on inviting any kids besides the bridal party, but if there is a family that really just has no other option besides bringing their child, I'm ok with it.

Re: Kids at your reception.....

No. At first we were but all of the kids are on my side and our hall doesn't discount them enought. Also they are not included in our minimum. Our minimum is 200 if we have only 200 including the kids they would pay full price. We are saving almost $4000 not having them. No one under 18 will be invited.
