My favorite line from the comments:
"I DO NOT want kids at my reception or wedding if I can help it only because I don't want someone's kids to be crying on a video as my bridal party and I are trying to get out strut on taking my spotlight "
Yes, because your entire wedding will be ruined and invalid if a kid happens to cry while you are 'gettin' your strut on'.

Oh no! We're going to have several very young children at our wedding. The chances of one of them not crying during the whole ceremony and reception is 0%. I know this. One of the kids is going to be 4-5 months old. During the cocktail hour, I'm going straight to the 4-5month old so I can meet him and hopefully hold him!! (I haven't met him yet--the family lives in a different state, so this is the first time many of us will get to meet the little guy and give our congrats to the new parents). I guess my marriage will be invalid because there will be kids crying at some point during our ceremony/reception (at the same place, right after one another)...

Also, is she doing a bridal party dance? I was forced into one (we didn't learn a dance--but it was sprung upon us, and by us, I mean me. I think the other two bridesmaids knew about it and thought "OMG, the bride's sister is going to love being made to dance to Cotton Eye Joe! Especially since she won't be prepared for it!"), and I was NOT happy about it. If I wanted to be on the dance floor, I would have been. The bride made us wear goofy tiaras and sunglasses and weird crap like that. After that, when I saw someone looking for me, I ran to the bathroom. I don't want to sound like a bad bridesmaid or anything--but after being on my feet for 12+ hours at that point, and being treated horribly by the bride, all I wanted was to sit and talk to family members I have not seen in years.

I had something similar happen. I was told AS I WAS BEING ANNOUNCED at the reception, that all the members of the wedding party needed to harlem shake into the reception hall. Yep.
