Kids at the wedding

So I have been going back a forth about if I should invite my younger cousins and I just don't know. Is anyone inviting kids to their wedding?

I'm having kids at our wedding.....17 of them!!

I'm probably going to be in the minority with this statement but I think if you have a relationship with the kids, see them all of the time, etc. then I think they should be included.

I agree with that! We are having 5 kids, and several teens, because I have a lot of younger cousins.

No kids for me! I may invite my nieces if I decide to have them as my flower girls, but as of now I think it costs too much to have them there when they really won't appreciate it.

We are having 21+. The only kids will be my flower girls but we are working out babysitting so they won't have to attend anything but the ceremony.

It's a personal preference. There will be no kids at mine, except for nieces and nephews. Plus, our wedding ends really late.

The only kids I am having is one 11 year old and one 14 year old. They are pretty well behaved otherwise I wouldn't have them come. There are going to be way too many drunks at my wedding.

We are having 12 kids (under 18 years old)... only FHs nieces and nephews and my two cousins.

I have a relationship with all them and I would really hate to exclude them.

The only kids invited are the ones in the bridal party and FH nieces/nephews and my close cousins (2) & that's it. It gets too expensive and I dont want a ton of kids running around.

I didn't originally want kids at the wedding, but I couldn't not have my cousin's kids there. There are only 5 or 6 of them, so no big deal.

We have chosen not to invite anyone under the age of 18, regardless if they are relatives.

We decided no kids under 18, except my nephew who will be 1, and his nanny will be in charge after he makes it down the aisle in his red flyer wagon :)

We will have two young teen cousins and everyone else is 18+. I have 7 young cousins, and honestly after I saw them running around at our engagement party I am so happy that we chose not to invite them. Our FG and RB will be picked up by babysitters after cocktail hour.

Absolutely not! and I included it on my invites... the only 'kid' is my jr bridesmaid who is 12. That's it, im so not having children crying or running wild at my wedding... I may have posted about this before, in laws went to a wedding with kids, and they kept running all over while the couple was doing their first dance, the photographer was having a hard time taking a pic of them only.. strollers and all that? nope, sorry leave your kiddies at home...

No kids for us except for our flower girl and ring boy. Our wedding starts at 8 and we feel that it's too late for kids and they would just get restless knowing their attention spans. We also want the adults to enjoy the party fully and not have to deal with their kids running around.
