[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can either accept or decline. It's not up to you to decide what is right/appropriate for them. If it's too "tacky" for you, then by all means, send a gift and stay at home. With an attitude like yours, do them a favor and stay away.

[b]They owe nothing--nothing--to anyone else on their special day. [/b]They could get married in an igloo or a hot air balloon, with no guests. They could have 500+ guests, including children, to a literal circus. They could have 50 guests in a backyard. They can do whatever they want. It's about them. It's not up to you. Go or don't go.[/quote]

I mean, sure you can do whatever you want, but this attitude just rubs me the wrong way.  A host always owes basic consideration to their guests.  That doesn't mean that you have to invite kids or whatever, and you should have the kind of event you want, but giving some thought to the comfort and pleasure of your guests is kind of a minimum.

Well, you do you.  I had a big wedding with lots of kids in a place convenient for most of our family/friends, and my sibling had a destination wedding in a beautiful but expensive to reach location and kids weren't encouraged.   Both were very nice events, but my sibling's wedding had many fewer guests and my sibling was perfectly fine with that and understood that going in.  [/quote]
