As a parent who has been invited to child free weddings, this is incredibly frustrating. It makes the parents have to choose between going to your wedding and trying to find a sitter or just not going. Don't be surprised if people simple choose to not go.

Now, if you're still deciding to not allow kids, make sure you do it right. The last wedding we went to was "kid free". Except the flower girl. And the ring bearer. And the wife's nephew. You see where I'm going here. They declared the wedding kid free but made exceptions. That just made us feel like they didnt like our kid in particular.

I still think it's a kind of a shitty thing to do, but it's your wedding and your choice. Just make sure you exclude ALL kids. NAH
