[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know this is an old thread... but I really hate when people say no kids and then still invite kids.

If an event is truly 18+ or 21+ that is totally fine! Say that! [b]But dont say "no kids" and then invite other peoples kids. [/b]Just invite the adults.

I had an 18+ wedding. No kids were invited, no kids attended. [/quote]

It's their party and they can do what they want to. [/quote]
It's improper etiquette and poor hosting.

But sure, they can also charge people a cover fee. It's their party. Doesnt not make it tacky and rude.[/quote]

So you'd prefer that the invitation say "Jane and Sarah can bring their kids, but Kim and Debbie can not." Would that be clearer for you?[/quote]
Err no. You'd address the invite Sarah, Jane, Larla and Larlo for one family and Kim and Debbie to the other family. No need to say who [i]isn't[/i] invited, only who[i] is[/i].

I think you're being purposely obtuse now though.[/quote]

Sure, sure, so then Kim and Debbie call the bride to ask if they can bring their kids. The bride says no. Kim and Debbie show up to the wedding and there are kids there.

HOW IS THAT ANY BETTER? You're the one being obtuse. You're acting like there's some way to do this that won't offend the snowflakes who can't fathom that their children wouldn't be invited to a wedding.

I have two kids. I could not care less whether or not they were invited to a wedding. If they were invited, great. If not, great. You people are so selfish and self-absorbed, it's really quite a sight to behold. [/quote]
