[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just got the save the date for a wedding for my BIL's wedding in the midwest. Would you assume "Mr and Mrs Smith" on the envelope means just the couple and no kids? I expect the actual invitation will have more clarity with the RSVP options, but we have a baby who will be a little over a year old at the time of the wedding and I need to feel out child care options with my side of the family as early as possible if he isn't invited.

And yes, DH and I could just ask but that feels annoying. Maybe I'm over thinking it. I'm a little surprised this wedding would be no kids as the couple are both youngest children and [b]all of their siblings have young kids[/b] and most live out of state like we do. Feels like a lot of important people will not be able to make and/or have to leave the reception early if no kids are allowed. [/quote]

Maybe that's why.  Perhaps they'd like the wedding and reception to not have a ton of young kids running around.[/quote]

This. If they have to provide a seat, a meal, and cake for every niece and nephew it would be a lot. And might mean a larger venue.

Since you will have a baby in arms, and [b]you're close relatives[/b], you may ask.[/quote]

You're not close relatives if they forgot to list your baby on the invitation. He's not invited. [/quote]

Maybe they didn’t forget. Maybe the close relatives prefer a baby-free wedding. [/quote]
