[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We had a no kids wedding.  We also had a 4yo flower girl, 7yo ring bearer, and 12yo "junior usher".  I don't know anyone who counts participants in the actual wedding party against the "no kids" rule.

I had a cousin who raised a stink about it.  But her main issue was that I chose to use the son of my lifelong best friend as my ring bearer instead of her son.  My cousin and I aren't even remotely close...she was invited to the wedding to appease my mother.  My best friend is like a sister to me.  No brainer.[/quote]

No.  A no kids wedding means no kids at all and this includes the wedding party.[/quote]

Wrong.[/quote]

+1. Seriously wondering if this pp has ever been to a wedding. Flower girls and ring bearers are typically children related to the bride and groom. They are very commonly at weddings. Their attendance does not mean all guests can bring along their kids. Is this not something everyone knows? [/quote]

It might be normal for you, but not everyone on this message board was born and raised in your culture.[/quote]

Are you under the impression that OP is not familiar with American wedding customs? That she has not seen media or movies that show American weddings? That she, a DC urban mom, has no idea what an American wedding entails? [/quote]

This level of entitlement feels very American white lady to me.

But yes, OP, it’s normal. Sorry you had to get a sitter. [/quote]
