[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP.  I only said the kids were not in HS.  They are in ES and younger.  We're definitely NOT ok with a stranger babysitting.  [/quote]

Why can't you stay with the children during the reception and your husband attend the reception?  You really seem set on making this hard.  The wedding is of a close family member.  Try to act like you're a family even though you clearly don't like this one.[/quote]
NP, but there is no reason to pay all the travel expenses just to have 3/4 members of OPs nuclear family sit in a hotel room for the family event. I have no problem with kid-free weddings, but people that have them also can’t expect that all family members with kids will attend. When my family has kid free events like weddings, I usually try to make it but DH and the kids stay home. You can’t on one hand trumpet family over all else, but then not include kids in family events. My nuclear family is paramount, and that family includes my kids. Sorry not sorry. [/quote]
