Take a picture of your new bride giving you a blow job on your wedding night because that right there is coming to an abrupt end. Take it from old man , a blow job from your wife after a couple years is like a unicorn... you really want to believe they exist but it's just a fantasy

Sadly, people don't understand the rules anymore. If you don't have an invitation, and have your name specifically spelled out (ONLY exception being a plus one), you're not invited. The end.
Now you've got to write things like 'adult only reception' and try hard to say that it's just a 'small wedding' and make all sorts of excuses.

we put "adult only reception" on the invite to avoid any of these shenanigans. plus I dislike kids so it was nice
It was a mighty fine reception.
And one LLOTOT did bring a baby... in her belly

Tell them the reception is adults only
When you make an honest woman out of your chicken-hatin girlfriend, you gonna invite me and C so I can hit on your mother-in-law?
I'm going to an explicitly stated 'adults only' reception this Saturday for a wedding. It's definitely not a bad clause to put on the invitation.

Actually agree with OP here. And every person you know wants to be that one exception.
"I know you said no kids, but is it okay if I bring mine?"

just went thru this in November.
the only way out of this is to be firm with people. we straight up told people we were paying for the wedding ourselves, so the guest list would be less than 100. Only close family and friends. No kids unless direct family. Don't drink alcohol? Don't come, because we are young and us and the wedding party will be getting drunk at the reception. Don't like rap music? Don't come, because we will be playing all genres of music.
We hurt some feelings. too fricking bad. BUT, everyone who did attend said it was one of the funnest wedding receptions they've ever been to.

Those friends are well lost. It's your wedding and they're making it about them. No bueno. You did the right thing

I have a big family, most of my cousins have at least one kid.. We haven’t even sent out invitations yet, but I’m already getting shite from some of them because we’re only allowing nieces and nephews.. Sorry, there will already be around 100 people there, I’m not paying to feed and entertain 40 children..

You wouldn't have these problems if the wedding was in Vegas and the invitations were 2 round trip plane tickets.

and here's my thing with bringing kids to a wedding.
if i had kids i would rather pay the cost of a babysitter, so that me and my wife can have a fun night off for ourselves and not the be asshat who brings young kids to a wedding.
i went to a ton of family weddings when i was less than 8 or so, i don't remember a fricking thing about them.

Going through this right now.. My cousin text me yesterday that his 8 year old daughter is DEVESTATED that she won’t be able to go to my wedding..

Give them your registry website, or say they are required to bring a present
Posted on 5/7/18 at 10:36 am to BayouBengals18
yep, we got that a lot. then my aunt(s) or mom would txt me an hour later.
"Klark, I'm really disappointed in you."
ETA: Stay strong, think of your pocketbook. You let that one kid go, it opens the floodgate, then your paying for 15 more meals. And that could be a couples massage on your honeymoon or upgrading your flights to first class. This is your BIG DAY, be selfish. frick em.

Or, "tickets to my wedding are $100 each. First 100 are on me."

Your cousin is a huge dick for putting that on you. You should guilt him right back.

We’re even offering this.. We’re going to have the teenage girls watch the younger kids at a house right across the street, because we are doing our wedding in Gulf Shores..

This exactly. I'm getting married in about a month and have had no similar issues as op. My solution to his problem, don't tell people you don't want to invite. They will figure it out when they see the ring on your finger or when you tell them about it after the fact. In fact, the ones I did invite from work....I specifically told them to keep it to themselves because I don't want anyone feeling left out, but also don't want to invite 40 extra people and their plus 1s.

Tell them no alcohol, cold sammiches, and a DJ at the reception and you won't have to worry about it.
