Child as +1

I am giving all single guests a plus 1.  No children except my niece, nephews and 2 or 3 younger cousins are invited.  My FI has a few cousins who are single and have children.  They are 3 sisters who have 3 children altogether.  If they choose their child as their plus one, which I am anticipating (and am totally cool with.)
Do you think other guests will side eye it or think I invited some kids but not others?  I don't want our other cousins with children to feel as if we were rude by not inviting their children too.

  • I guess TK ate my post...AGAIN!!!
    Its was a short one so lets try this over again...
    The only children invited to my celebration is my niece, 3 nephews a few cousins that are younger.  My FI has 3 cousins (sisters) who have 3 children.  These cousins are single and I have a very strong feeling they are going to rsvp their children as their plus one.  I am totally fine with that, but i dont want my other guests whom children I did not invite to think that I invited these kids and not theirs.  WWYD?

    I wouldn't be offended if someone used their +1 to bring their child.  Based on your email,  I could have had the same option.

  • This is actually a good reason to NOT invite people "+1". Why not invite each person you actually want to invite?

    For our wedding, we included all partners' names on the invites. If you want to invite your Aunt and your cousin, invite them.
