One fool-proof way to have an adults-only wedding (+ invitation wording!)
How can I make it clear from my invitations that while I love kids, I don’t love them at my wedding?” As usual, my recommendation comes down to being proactive instead of reactive. Instead of making it negative (“How can I say ‘NO CHILDREN ALLOWED’?”), simply pick a venue and time that support adult-only activities. In other words, have a night wedding at a 21+ venue like a bar or lounge. There’s nothing like an 9pm ceremony and a dude checking IDs at the door to keep the kiddlets away.
