I would put 'Adult Only Reception to follow at....' I would HOPE that should be enough of an explanation.

Nope, I dont think its tacky, I think it gives them more time to find someone to watch their children if they have them

Good Idea But ONLY do it on the wedding website Get the word of mouth out politely to the guests in casual conversation.

Most people will understand when the envelopes are addressed to Mr and Mrs and or Sue and Bob Smith. w/out family.

i agree. i don't think it's tacky. the people who get offended are the same ones who think they have a right to bring their kids to your wedding on your dime.

i dont' think that's tacky at all..... people put it on their reply cards, so why not on a STD. weddings receptions are adult functions... i don't think you're out of line for not having children there... i didn't, we only had the flower girl and the two boys that were our altar servers.

I agree with gemmifer and bluegreen08. Use word of mouth and gentle but firm language that you're not inviting kids.
