[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wanted a nighttime wedding which IMO is incompatible with children. It was nice to have a beautiful adult affair before children took over my life lol. [/quote]

At an evening reception there were sibs kids plus some others invited. Others were not. They fit within the capacity limit of the venue.  These were the cost free declined baby sitting offers:
 1. hotel suite with 3-4 sitters for ceremony and/or reception or as needed
2. 3-4 sitters at ceremony placed next to parents or stationed in the back of church as needed
3. church had big vestibule plus room to use and large terrace out front with grassy areas and gardens.

[b]Parents and relatives including aunts, cousins, grandparents said they'd help etc so no need.  Reality of that? GP's etc in gowns, tuxes or cocktail attire are not relinquishing their adult beautiful time so the parents can have their adult beautiful time.[/b]

So if kids not invited there can be option 1.  If a teen isn't invited they can be part of the babysitting and get paid. There are capacity limits and what used to hold 125 might now be 50 or less. The babysitting area isn't part of that 50.

Grandparents don't help when a wedding is not happening - no way in hell they are helping in the midst of a wedding.  If the grandparent wants to dictate
how someone else plans their day, the grandparents can pay for the wedding. [/quote]
