No Kids

can you ladies please help me im doing my reception cards now and im stumped :

Cocktail hour seven o'clock
Reception immediately following
Jericho Terrace
249 Jericho Turnpike
Mineloa, New York 11501

i would like to include the fact that there is no kids welcome at the reception... where do i put it and how do i say it without it seeming rude

I would put somewhere- maybe at the bottom....

Adults Only Reception

Good luck to you guys...I don't want kids at the reception either and my sisters are bringing them anyway...

i'm having the same issues also. I guess we're doing adult reception to follow I dunno...i'm so over the invitation/std/guest list process right now.

do you think people would think that kids could come to the cocktail hour ??? im trying to get out of awkward phone calls

I doubt it...if you put ADULT RECEPTION TO FOLLOW or adults only i dont think people are gonna bring them to the cocktail hour......leave and come back

Children are welcome at ceremony only

We request that the guests at our reception be adults only

We love children, but request the reception to be adults only. Thank you for your understanding.

Um gosh it is hard....

I wish I knew...
I know it sounds harsh. But a few of the weddings i've been to in the past few years have had really loud children in attendance at the ceremony. A few had children so loud you could not hear the priest of the couple at all.
That upsets me. Especially since the videographer was not allowed up by the couple in the church... i'd have to hear their video...

I've never gotten an invitation that seperated the cocktail hour and the reception like that...
so you could do..
Adult reception to follow
Time
Place
Address

Honestly i dont see people comming to the cocktail hour woth teir kids then leaving taking them home and comming back for dinner...if you put adutls only or adult reception to follow they should get teh idea...if people call you just let them know you are not going to have children at the RH. If they dont like it...oh well
