[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the age when a kid can attend a “kid-free” wedding? I have a 14 year old teenager and I’m not sure if he counts. Obviously he is not a risk for bad behavior. I hope that he would be invited. [/quote]

It’s whether their names are on the invite or not. Most of these invites don’t say “kid free”[/quote]

We haven’t received an invitation or save the date yet, but we were told that it’s a kid-free wedding. It’s out of town, so I guess we will go through the calculus of making arrangements after we get the invitation.

It’s not particularly easy even with a teen. He can’t stay home alone and with the travel time and COVID, he can’t stay with a friend for 4 days. I’d also feel bad if he came with us, missed 2 days of school, and had to stay in the hotel alone instead of celebrating w family. [/quote]

Then decline. It's that easy.[/quote]

Thank you for your thoughtful response, Miss Manners. [b]It’s his aunt’s wedding, my niece. [/b]Due to Covid, they are waiting till the last minute to send out invitations, in case they have to reduce numbers. In the case of close family, it would be nice to get a heads up if he’s included or not prior to invitations going out. It’s not a huge wedding, nor do we have a large family. I don’t want to assume either way. If he’s not invited, there will be hurt feelings and logistical challenges for us. If he’s invited, he will gladly come and celebrate, although he will not yet be vaccinated.[/quote]

Your family tree is really f*cked up.  [/quote]
