we're not having any kids or babies at the wedding.
FH's cousin and his wife in CA just had a baby in June and are now asking us if they can bring their infant to our wedding her parents were supposed to drive up from PA to watch the little one while they were at the wedding, but now can't make the trip to NY for some reason.
FH went as far as to secure a babysitter for them, but they don't want to leave the baby with a stranger. (this babysitter is FH's boss's daughter)
there are a lot of other parents coming to our wedding who made other arrangements for their kids. my cousin in CA is leaving his wife & 2 kids home and is coming to our wedding alone. that's just 1 example, there are several other.
so now we are in a VERY tough spot! if we tell them they can bring their baby, how will the other parents react? this is very unfair to them. and if we tell his cousin & his wife that they can't bring the baby, we're 'mean'. so we're the bad guy no matter WHAT!
bottom line, we do NOT want this baby at the wedding, period. and I really don't know how to tell them 'no' in a non offensive way.
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would say definitely stick by your original plan. Explain to them that you already told everyone else with kids 'no' and that it would be very unfair to everyone else.

Why must people always insist on changing the invitation to include their children. Stick with what you want and say NO. You already went out of your way to find a babysitter.
