[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 459341, member: 6705"] in my opinion, it really depends. Now, XH and I asked for no kids. Why? Open bar. Simple. One of his aunts or uncles or cousins brought a 5-y/o. Did we tell them NO, she could NOT attend? NO. They came from [I]Wisconsin[/I]. So there was no way. I did pull the parent aside and explain about the open bar, and to please keep an eye on the little girl. And there was no problem - they went back to the hotel before the real drinking started. With husband and I, excluding kids would have been horrible. O was my flower girl/bridesmaid/maid of honor; J was husband's ring bearer/best man. Niece brought her infant. Very small wedding - besides the four of us and preacher - 4 parents, 1 grandparent, 1 sister, 1 niece, 1 nephew, 1 great nephew and my BFF and her hubby. I think the bride and groom are within their rights, but they also need to be flexible. And once the kids hit 12 or so, they're capable of behaving. [/QUOTE]
