  I had an adult only reception at the Grand. We did not provide child care.  We let everyone know ahead of time that it was adult only via word of mouth and on the reception card. 
   IMO it is the parent's responsibility to find child care  or not come to the wedding.  I honestly don't know many parents who would let their kid stay with a stranger anyway.

  There are many options.  If you or a friend has/knows of kids if you offer them money to babysit during the reception.  I had a teacher friend who teaches in a middle school.  She asked two of her students to babysit for her wedding.

  I was married at The Grandview. We did an adults-only reception and did not offer childcare. For a few relatives that were flying in, we told them we had a few preschool teacher friends that we would put them in touch with if they wanted. They chose to leave the kids at home with grandma and grandpa instead.
  
  I really wouldn't try to offer anything as far as childcare because heaven forbid something goes wrong, you are now involved. It's a lot more hassle than you need.
