People that don't invite my kids to their wedding are selfish assholes.

my actual opinion- if you are going to have a wedding then you decide who is important enough in your life to get an invitation. then you turn the decision of whether or not they bring their family (spouse, children) over to them. because hey let's face it, this person is pretty darn important to you, warrants an invitation to your wedding, is giving up their time to come see you get married and is an adult capable of making adult decisions.

but hey that's just me and i'm maybe weird that way. as a side note, i also let my wedding guests pick out their own clothes and decide on their own when they needed to use the bathroom during the reception.

People that bring their shitheaded kids to weddings are terrible.  If you have class, then you make rough ridin' arrangements and leave them behind.  If you can't, then sit your ass at home.  Nobody will be having any fun with you anyway.  Kids at weddings annoy the hell out of me as a guest and every damn time I want to punch the parents square in their fat rough ridin' faces.  Oh look, neither of you are very attractive and you had a couple mediocre at best kids.  Great job assholes is what I say.  Thanks for subjecting everyone else to your mistakes.

My opinion is you let people make whatever calls they want to make and let the chips fall where they may.  If someone wants to draw their line in the sand on making arrangements to be away from their kids for half a day then so be it.  I think it is pretty weird that someone would think it was self-centered to impose a "no kids" restriction on their wedding, also thinks someone butthurt enough to not go to a wedding because of a "no kids" rule is a model parent, citizen and wedding guest.

i personally think you are probably paying those kids more attention then they deserve, but then again i don't get easily frustrated and am in general a pretty low maintenance person.

My kids were going to have a few friends over for the weekend.  I assume the bride and groom won't mind if they bring their friends.  Its only 5.  Get over yourselves

Wedding receptions are great.  Sounds like you have just been to boring people's weddings.

If you like the people enough to not mind giving up a holiday weekend, Sunday weddings on a 3 day weekend can be pretty bad ass.

What about weddings that take Friday and Saturday?   :adios:

Also, what kind of sad poors limit who can come to their wedding?  Sheesh people.  If the kids are annoying make them sit in the corner while the rest of us binge drink and break dance like idiots.  Or don't bring them.

That's not quite it. I just think you try too hard sometimes and your Peorianess might explain it. Maybe some sort of an urge to overcompensate. Not sure.

weddings where you don't know anyone are especially great, cause you don't have to worry about embarrassing anyone. just party.

yes, love them.  :dance:

Girlfriend just dragged me to my first "don't know anyone except my gf" wedding/reception a couple weeks ago, it was horrible.  Like, the wedding itself was nice and there was pretty good food and free beer but I absolutely hated spending that much time around ~300 people I had never met.  Plus, it was in her hometown in Nebraska so we were there the whole weekend and I got screwed out of a few hundred dollars (had to miss a big baseball tournament I was asked to umpire that weekend).  All in all, I'd rather pay Mike Tyson to use my testicles as a punching bag instead of doing that again.  Pulling that crap during football season would be an offense worthy of a break up.

Man, is there anything worse than super long wedding's? Anything over 30 minutes is overkill, just get it over and get me to the reception!

sister in law did a hotel reception and hired a babysitter.  kids were welcome but everybody knew there was a babysitter.  got a bunch of toys/dvds/coloring books etc and a room adjacent to the reception room.

My wife arranged this set up for our wedding. Worked great for everyone, especially the guests who were binging and not having to worry about their kids for a little while. Highly recommend if it's feasible.

Also, my best man's daughter screamed through the entire ceremony, but no one knew because the grandparents were there and they had enough sense to take the baby outside.

hey dork, the line in the sand was drawn when two people (who want to spend the rest of their life together and start a family) decided to invite their closest friends and family to an event celebrating that fact and then included a stipulation that none of those close friends and family members were allowed to bring their four month old son or their seven year old daughter, despite the fact that it's a pretty much universally accepted thing to do.

i do agree that humans are allowed to make whatever calls they want to though.
