[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with you OP.  I had kids at my wedding.  It was a destination wedding with the continental US.  I wanted family members to come so I said yes of course bring your kids!  I also really love their children.  I had a kids section at the wedding with little table and chairs.  PB and J sandwiches and easy kid food ( which is super cheap....you don't have to serve lobster to 3 year olds). I had bubbles and a little area for them to play.  I had a babysitter there to help.  And then as the night progressed there was a movie indoors for kids to chill out.  They were not in the way at all.  I think children bring joy!  Some of my favorite photos from the wedding are ones with kids doing funny things.

And now when I get invited to a wedding in Aspen that kids are not invited to, I politely decline.  It's just way too hard and expensive to try and find a childcare situation and get myself to the wedding.  And I have also noticed that attendance numbers are quite low at these weddings, but if that is what the bride wants then that is fine!  [/quote]

You can’t leave your partner to parent for a few days so you can celebrate a freind’s milestone?

I also doubt that you would buy plane fare for your children to go to Aspen for a wedding.

As a parent, I find it hilarious that the “parents” can’t see their own self involvement. You had your turn, let someone else have theirs. [/quote]
