[quote=Anonymous]I got married young so it wasn't an issue at my own wedding; no babies and the few kids there were 10+. Over the years we've been invited to no-kids weddings and handled it differently depending on where our kids were developmentally at the time, and where we were emotionally/developmentally as parents. We weren't thrilled at the idea of our firstborn snowflake being watched during a family wedding by a stranger (provided by the bride's family), so we just didn't go. A few years later, we took our two young kids to an out of town wedding and paid a fortune for a nanny from an agency to hang out in the hotel with them.

I think the ideal solution would be for kids to be invited/not expressly forbidden, and for parents not to be idiots and leave early with them or decide for themselves whether they want to get sitters, etc. (One bride said she wanted no kids so their "parents can enjoy themselves." Hard for parents to enjoy themselves if they're worried sick -- all I'm sayin'.)
