[QUOTE="muttmeister, post: 459718, member: 135"] I don't think it matters what their reason for not wanting kids is: it is their wedding and you either respect their wishes or you stay home. It could be that it is a small church (or whatever) and they've already filled all of the seats; it could be that they are paying megabucks per person for the caterer and can't afford everybody; it could be that they are all planing to drink till they're blitzed and don't want the kids to see; it could be that they hate kids; it could be that they are anal and want everything perfect and think kids aren't; it could be that they left all kids out because they specifically didn't want one particular kid; it could be that they are just stupid. Doesnt matter; it's their wedding. Personally, I wanted everybody at my wedding. Kids were not only welcome; they were specially invited. When difficult child 1 got married, there were more kids than grown ups. When difficult child 2 got married, they already had a 2 year old who was part of the wedding, plus several other kids were there too. But that's us. Not everybody sees things the same way. If you don't find fault with me for inviting the kiddies, I won't find fault with you for not inviting them,,BUT it is important to make you wishes known to everybody at the beginning. Then they can plan accordingly. I don't think you should be insulted or find fault with their plans just because it's not the way you would do it. But you can stay home if you don't like it. [/QUOTE]
