If I have to tell you not to bring your kids to an event that goes late into the night where unlimited booze is served, than I can't help you or your kids. Only God/Allah can.
This was my point. There shouldn't need to be a prohibition. Fun people already know better. If you're bringing your children, then you are a boring loser of a friend.
I mean, if you really have no other options I will give you some $$ for a sitter. Just ask.
i personally choose not to take my kids to weddings as well for the same reasons listed above. it's a wedding and if i'm going, then i'm going to booze and probably even sneak off out back for a cig or two.
that's me though and it's my call and there have been a few times for various different reasons that we brought our kids and did not do the above things. just a quick nice to see you, here's your present, eat some food, have one beer and bail.
just seriously though... if you are getting married and honestly feel the need to make the whole "do i bring my six month old or not" decision for the people that you invited, then that raises a serious red flag about you as a person and the people that you choose to associate with. or maybe it doesn't at all and you are just a narcissistic weirdo that chose your wedding day to throw societal norms and conventional wisdom out the window because it's all about you and it's your day and you can do anything you want to on your day and people can either like it and deal with it or eff em.
