Kids in BP and at wedding

I dont want children at my wedding. Period. Its a night wedding and kids will take away from it a little.

MY fh has an adorable nephew (first baby in the family) and the nephews paretns are in our BP, however I still dont want kids at my wedding. Brought this up to FH and he became sensitive as he loves nephew and wants him included. How do I say no tactfully - or do I suck it up?

Also -the child wont even be 2 by the time we get married.

Help!

I would not want to create a huge mess of family relations- let his only nephew come. You could start a huge family feud if you're not careful.

It's one little baby and he's the only baby in the family- I wouldn't even question it.

I have never been to a wedding where the kids have taken anything away from the wedding. If anything, I think they add to the special-ness of the day.

I say let the baby be in the ceremony and pictures and have a babysitter to take care of him to either take him home or in the bridal suite.

yes u are probably right...

i think the main this is we have an adorable baby on our side too - that was just adopted..and my bm has a baby too--and im scared i will get slack from all of them if i only include one and not the other..

You wont get slack or shouldnt , its YOUR decision. We have 4 kids in the BP and they are all leaving after the introduction into reception. I told their parents this upfront. We couldnt invite some( even BP )..the BP kids all have brothers and sisters and if we invited them, we'd have to invite all the kids..you get my point. I think you should let FH have his say if it means a lot to him, and do a babysitter or have the babies leave before the reception starts .

I see no problem with kids at the wedding. I am only having two (my nieces). One of them will only be 2 at the time. Every wedding I have been too has had children their. There is so much going on you forget they are their.
I wouldn't worry about your friends being mad that there children weren't invited. Your FH nephew is family.
