Hello
I would just like some clarification why is it so bad or rude to write adult reception on invitations. FI is adament that he wants it on the invites as we have families who are quite dumb and will not understand the whole idea that whoever is listed on the invite are the only ones invited.
I know this because we have told everyone that we do not want children there. (Only children will be his two and they are leaving after the ceremony / pictures) even though we have flat out told these people that children are NOT invited we have still been told "though the grape vine" that certain people on both sides still think they can bring their kids to the ceremony.
FI and I do not feel it is right to drink when children are present and i hate kids at weddings.. Some children may sit quietly but honestly i have not been to one wedding that had children invited where i was able to hear the whole ceremony without an interruption.
so back to the original question, why is it so rude? & added on what should we be doing?
Thanks!!
