[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am pro kids at weddings but this is a ridiculous question. No kids means no kids. It means that when the invitation came to you it probably said, 'Mark and Susan Smith' and did not say 'The Smith Family' or 'Mark and Susan and Tommy and Shelly Smith'.

It says no kids, you have kids, your kids are not invited, come or don't come. How did OP only realize that after RSVPing as you generally put number of guests on your RSVP? The only weird thing here is that no kids wasn't on the invitation itself.

Kids are kids in the context of weddings until they live in another household and would receive an invitation to a wedding on their own. [/quote]

+1.  I am attending my cousin’s child-free wedding next month but it was clear from the beginning it was child-free.  Save the dates and invites were addressed just to DH and I along with a courteous message that children could not be accommodated at the reception.  So either OP wasn’t paying attention or her cousin wasn’t clear.  In my case it’s a younger cousin and we have a large extended family (so does her fiancé) so it was understandable.  And frankly probably better with covid anyway although this is a rescheduled wedding and  it was a pre-covid decision.[/quote]
