Ok., let’s admit it, kids are cute at weddings, they way they’re dressed up., walking down the aisle, their laughter!
What’s not so cute is crying , talking, screaming during your ceremony!
Certainly if children are important you include them … but a few thoughts.
- A few things to keep in mind:
- By all means involve children in your ceremony if that is important to you and your families.
- Kids don’t do real well ‘standing’ during the ceremony; provide a seat for them with Mom, Dad or a Grandparent.
- Provide someone to care for them during the wedding and reception, e.g. sitter, a magician, a party planner, etc.
- Remember young children won’t remember your wedding and how they behaved during it … but you and your guests will. Use your best discretion to have a great wedding day experience for you and all your guests. Your wedding day is after all a celebration of your commitment and love to each other.
- Note: if yours is an adult only wedding, read the above and smile!
