I told mine you can come to the day and the children can be dropped off in the evening or you all come to the evening as some of them are almost a table on their own. I was upfront very early and they were all fine with it. All of them were happy to have them just in the evening as some are really small and might not cope as well for the whole day x

I have a big family and only places for 40 at our wedding. I had no complaints from anyone, no one questioned why they weren't invited to the day. It's your wedding and your money. Do not put yourself into debt for it!

only 4 of my cousins are coming and thats because we see them regularly and are young and play with my daughter, one other cousin is invited to the night and the others arent invited at all

We are not inviting any cousins to the wedding breakfast purely because of the cost. We are getting married in church so have said we would love for them to come to that but we are restricted with numbers die to cost however they are all invited to the evening. Most people understand this, I know our families do. If your family don't understand this then they will just have to lump it because it's the way it has to be xxx

I've told mine all kids are welcome to evening but die to costs and numbers, we can't accomodate them during the ceremony and breakfast, the parents can come to day and have their kids brought to em in evening If they wish or cam wait n come to just evening with their kids, everyone had been told and are ok with it and I'll remind em again when invitations are sent

We restricted children to be immediate family only so the only under 7s were nieces and nephews.

We are having the same problem finding hard to decide who to invite to the full day and who just to the evening

I'm having the same don't worry to much it's your day and your choice! I went with the numbers issue and any one under the age of 18 is by invite one to the evening as well! It is your big day! Stay strong! X
