Limited kid Reception Invites??? this is a toughie.

Hi Ladies - I need your opinion.

We were finalizing our guest list, and I told my fiance I felt that the better option would be an Adults Only Reception. However he wants his Nieces and family members 18 and under at the reception.  It is just too expensive to invite everyone and their children .

I am torn and we came to a * potential * solution :
 Wedding party and immediate family can have children attend.

However, if we did this :

A) Would it be ok? My Sis says yes - But Is that just b/c her kids will be there? 

B) How do you word it on the Invite ( you cannot put "adult only reception" because technically there will be some kids there)

Thanks for your help.... I hope that we can agree on something - this is the only thing my fiance and I butt heads on .....
