Inviting Children

I am completely overwhelmed at how large our guest list is. Our guess at the beginning was 100 and it's up to 150 with more being added. I would love to invite kids, and we are going to. But I was wondering if we can invite only children that are in the family, and then other children are not invited. For example, my dad has a men's Bible study group and we're inviting those men plus spouses. Is it okay to not invite their children, it'd be adding like 15 more people.

Yes, you can limit it to family; just be sure the lines are very clear.  You can't make exceptions or that's when people will get testy.

You are fine to invite only family kids if that is what you choose.  As long as you have clear cut-offs, such as family only, or first cousins only, then people are usually more understanding than if you were just picking and choosing kids to invite.

For us we are only having immediate family's children and OOT guest's children and that is it.  It is completely fine to have some kids and not others as long as you don't split up a family and keep the kids acceptance at a specific level.
