People Are Debating ‘No Kids’ Policies At Weddings, And Things Got Heated (22 Tweets)

I always find it a massively disrespectful of the family unit when this happens, as well as it being a huge inconvenience all round. A wedding is about bride and groom, but also about your guest experience, that’s why you invite them. It just comes across a pretentious.

If you dislike children and that’s your worst nightmare then you have to be true to yourself if you think you won’t enjoy your day with lots of children there. However, if you plan on having children yourself you might want to apply a more balanced approach.

42 years ago we went that route, and two of our best friends decided not to come to our wedding. We've regretted it ever since, the more so since we had our own children and realised how we would feel if we got a similar invitation.

Your wedding so its your rules. How would you feel if one of your close family members politely rejected your invitation as they couldn’t bring their child? It works both ways I suppose but then don’t be upset if someone decides not to come because of it

Yes but why not… Let the kids run and have fun… life is so short, no one will ever remember the kids were there…. but the kids will never forget that they were there ❤️

As long as they understand that friends and family with kids may not be able to come without their kids. Personally I’d be insulted.

No they are not. This is terrible. Most marriages are to form a family, you know, children. Excluding them is mean and immature.

Feel terrible that I resent their wedding day so much, but you can’t help what you feel. I’d never subject parents of a young baby to having to make that decision. I’d want all my guests to be as happy as possible.
