I made a mistake on my wedding invitations. Need your help!?

No matter what you do someone is going to complain about how you worded it. It's YOUR wedding..YOUR paying for it. There are two ways to look at it. Some people feel that it's a family celebration and everyone should attend even the children (im sure that's how your in-laws perceive it). My in-laws wanted children at our wedding. I made sure EVERYONE in our families knew that we weren't inviting children. Actually I let his aunt who completely agreed with us to make sure everyone knew. Case in point--my in-laws had a wedding..the children were invited and it looked like a childrens party and not a wedding. If you have a small family and would only have like 5 children than ehh I guess you could manage. But I would have had over 40 kids at my wedding. A bit ridiculous? Yes. Now the way I look at it. I feel that it's an adult celebration. You have people getting drunk, dancing and having a good time. I don't think it's proper for children to be there seeing that--my opinion. As for how you write it on the invitation I would write exactly what you wrote but unfortunately you can NOT put no children allowed--its considered tacky. I would have loved to have put it trust me lol...Word of mouth is best. And you seem to be pretty out-spoken like me. If someone puts an extra guests (child) down on the rsvp than call them right away and handle it. Just apologize and say its an adult only ceremony. Or if you have to than just fib and say that the hall doesn't allow children. I wish you luck! Congrats on the marriage!
