[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Thanks for all the replies.  A couple of clarifications -- money is definitely NOT the reason they aren't invited.  The marginal difference for this couple of a few extra dinners is nothing relative to the cost of this event.  They might be short on space, and I can certainly understand if they don't want to use a "seat" for a kid.... which was part of my thought process in asking for the kids to pop in for an hour.  The trip is not  a financial hardship for us but is a big piece of our budget -- we are doing a summer staycation to accommodate the expense.  Which is fine -- I have no grievance with that -- I just feel like my kids (older ones really) should get to see the couple's first dance, dance a little themselves, and have the experience of the celebration after taking part in the ceremony and posing for family pictures.

I agree with you, op. I don’t understand how people exclude close family from family events like weddings, but I’m not sure there’s much you can do. Make the note room as fun as possible or take them out separately.[/quote]
