[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've turned down a few weddings because of lack of childcare and would have absolutely no issues doing the same here. You are completely in the right to say no.

I have gone to a mid-week wedding for a close family member but our children were all invited to that wedding.

[b]If someone is going to have a wedding during work/school hours and not invite kids, they can expect "nays" from working parents.[/b]

Who the hell are these people getting married today? Just don't invite guests if you don't really want them.[/quote]

Honestly the whole thing sounds like the bride and groom should expect a bunch of Nos. Middle of the work day. Kid free. Remote location.

Maybe you can pick 1 or 2 of those and still get a pretty good turnout. But if you choose to have a wedding that is very inconvenient for your guests then understand that people are going to decide it’s too much work for them to attend. Based on what we know of this wedding, I wonder what other costs have been saved at the guests’ expense. 3 pm on a weekday makes me think it’s going to be light apps and cash bar. [/quote]
