[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would actually ask your cousin what his/her preference is and start a conversation about it.  People without kids have no clue what it takes to make these choices and so sometimes it's just that they didn't really think it through.  Before you decide definitively, I would talk to them.  They may change their mind about bringing your daughter.[/quote]

No, don't be that person. They've made their decision and you're trying to second guess that--that's just really rude.

I personally am sad when close family members choose child-free weddings. One of our local relatives had a wedding a couple of years ago and made it child-free for everyone EXCEPT her own siblings' kids, whom she wanted for flower girl duties and photo ops. I stayed home with our kids while H went. The wedding pictures looked so sad when it's just a handful of the bride's nieces and nephews because all of their cousins had to stay home.

That said, you still have to respect the couple's wishes. It may not be what you, or I, would choose personally, it's still not your place to question it.[/quote]

Op here and I will accept their choice but I don’t agree with it which is okay.  Was curious how others felt because this is my first time experiencing this (sounds more common based on opinions given here but again, not something I am familiar with).[/quote]
