[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Question for Dc: I’m in an out of town wedding this summer for a childhood friend who does not have kids.  I have three young kids.  My husband and mom are also invited and attending.  We’re all staying at the hotel. She has grudgingly allowed us to have the kids at the ceremony and cocktail hour.  Is it rude of me to take her up on it?  If they don’t attend, my husband will skip the ceremony and skulk around with them at the hotel (they won’t be dressed up so they can’t really just be around the common areas to watch).  If they are half invited, at least I can get them proper outfits and they will probably only hang out for an hour or so before bedtime (ceremony is at 6:30).  [/quote]

I would have just declined the invitation, but that's harder for you to do now that you asked to bring your kids and she said yes. [/quote]

I’m in the wedding so I can’t decline.  [/quote]

If not bringing your kids was a huge deal I’d ask about it before I agreed to be in the wedding party. [/quote]

Give me a break.  I’m one of two bridesmaids and have known the bride since we were two.  I offered to keep the whole family home in DC and come on my own but got grief about not having my husband attend.  So I can’t win.  Besides, we didn’t discuss her policy on kids when she asked me to be in the wedding.  It wasn’t foremost in anyone’s mind. [/quote]
