When it comes to kids, they can either be very disruptive, or they can be sweethearts.  When inviting your guests, set a statement whether kids are allowed or not.  It’s not rude stating your wedding is “adults only”, but if you state this, be sure to not make any exceptions as this may hurt some of your guests feelings.

As a common rule, 10 to 20% of the guests you invite will not attend.  This all depends on who you invite, but keep in mind some people have young children or newborns, some work jobs that they can’t get out of, and others may not want to travel too far.
