[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been attending weddings for 20 years and this is the 2nd to 5th time I've been invited to child-free weddings. I don't get it. At least for one wedding we know we're one of only 2 people with kids in the family. It's just so off putting. I'd frankly rather not be invited. [/quote]

Can't you get a babysitter? Is it local? Do you not go out without your kids ever? If it is travel - bring your kids and then for actual wedding and reception hire a sitter that comes highly recommended. They should offer this service. We did. [/quote]

We are not that poster but I've never hired a babysitter once when my kids were little.  Too expensive.  Nor would I ever consider using a sitter at a venue for safety reasons.[/quote]

That’s fine and it’s your choice. The bride and groom are not required to accommodate it, nor are they required to compensate for expenses you won’t pay for children you chose to have (babysitter) by paying for extra meals at their wedding. [/quote]
