Wording Question! Help!

edited January 2014 in Wedding Invitations & Paper
My fiance and I have already booked our venue and thus far we have factored in our tentative head count what it would be with anyone we know that will be bringing their small child. Since we have children of our own, we didn't want someone to not be able to come because they couldn't bring their child. However, it would be nice to have less children there as possible so is there any way or suggestions on how to word an invitation stating that their child is invited, but it would be prefered that they did not attend? 

Re: Wording Question! Help!

  • No.  There is no gracious way to indicate on any invitation that uninvited guests are not welcome.

    If you don't want to invite someone's children, dates for singles, or anyone else, you leave their names off the invitation envelopes.

    Ummm, no. If you invite them, you should be preferring that they attend. Otherwise, they shouldn't be invited. 


    What did you think would happen if you walked up to a group of internet strangers and told them to get shoehorned by their lady doc?~StageManager14

  • Either make the space in your budget to invite kids, or don't invite kids. Either choice is fine, but there's no in between or "if you must"" invite.
