Children at the wedding

Hi ladies,


So We currently have our wedding booked for end of November this year - hopefully. We have decided for several reasons to not invite children. Thing is, we have a daughter who will be 2 and a half at the time and my best friends girls who will be 7 and 5 are also flower girls. Other than that - no kids.Our reasons behind it are we want a grown up wedding, not a kids party. I’ve been married once before and my family have SO many children it was like a kids party. Secondly, we’ve already hit our maximum guest capacity for our venue with all the adults.
I’ve spoken to some people and I thought it’d be fine, now I’m getting the impression quite a lot of people will actually decline the invite because their kids aren’t included.
I just wanted opinions really.Personally, if I received an invite without my daughter I’d be fine. Especially if I knew no other children were being invited other than the bridal party.
What are your thoughts? X
