How should we word our invitations if we don't want children at the Wedding Ceremony? We plan to provide a staffed nursery for kids under the age of 10 during the Ceremony.
The wedding will be early in the day and we'd like the children to attend the reception so to imply an Adult Reception Only doesn't quite solve the dilemma.
Would it be proper to word the invitation, maybe in the corner, to say that a nursery/babysitting will be provided for children not in the wedding under the age of ten?

People pay for what they do, and still more for what they have allowed themselves to become. And they pay for it very simply; by the lives they lead.

What a great idea to have a nursery available at your ceremony. No fussy babies! At the very bottom of invitation put:
"On site nursery available for children under 10."

Why have kids at the reception but not the ceremony? I think kids make the feeling of "family united" a stronger one. It makes everything seem more real and adds to the sentimentality of the ceremony.

I think that it is a good idea to have a day care for children under ten. We are going through the same thing right now. My fiance doesn't want any kids under the age of seven to be at the wedding. We recently went to a wedding and you could hear kids crying. One little boy kept walking up and down the aisle. So yes I think that it is a good idea. We are doing it. We don't want to hear crying babies on the tape of our wedding day. So I think that a simple "Day care would be provided for kids under the age of ten not in the ceremony" is enough.
Why would anyone bring their CHILDREN to such a sacred and generally QUIET event? I have yet to see any kid that can sit still for the hour long service. People should just get a sitter. Imagine little lulu licking the icing on your wedding cake. Yuck!

My wedding is in May on a Friday nite. I am allowing children to the ceremony but not the reception. On my Formal invitations, I include "Adult Reception Immediately Following Ceremony". I do however, have several cousins, neices and nephews that are not adults. I printed small invitaitions to the ceremony. Just so that won't feel left out.

That's a very classy touch J9! Tynesha26 Some people are rude it doesn't matter how old! So weird that no one stopped him from walking up/down the aisle! It is considered bad luck to enter the church after the bride or leave before her. That may keep people in their seats and get them there early! lol
