Snobby but how?. I don't have kids so why should I have to accommodate those who've chosen to have them.No kids?
Pretty much everyone my age (early 30s) has kids now. Just seems miserable and snobby to ban them
if they were invited they’d have been on the invite! I’m also looking forward to baby going to their grandparents and us getting a full day/night drinking, dancing and celebrating without having to keep the baby entertained.I don't blame you!This thread is 100% confirming our decision to elope! Thank you all
our wedding was meant to be in March but we had to postpone to September. Because I'm impatient, we ended up going to Gretna Green in June to do the legal ceremony and then we'll have all the big shenanigans as planned this month. But honestly, if I'd known how good eloping would turn out I would have planned it that way from the start!Yep we did the same. After cancelling 4 times I wanted at least to be legally married so we did in front of 2 guests.I don't blame you!
Im around that age. I don't have kidsNo kids?

I think I'm doing the parents a favourGross attitude
Why?Gross attitude
We did confetti cannons at a recent wedding as the brides walked back up the aisle, it was so fun! It looked so pretty and the photos came out amazing as everyone's faces were really genuine and unposed if that makes sense? Lots of gasps and happy faces as they went off.
Yes please!! I’m trying to do a non wedding weddingWe need a 2022 Brides thread! I should have been getting married on Saturday but postponed due to the Covid overseas travel rules.. once Saturday’s out of the way I can get excited again
Enjoyed reading these tips but also thankful I paid for a planner
A friends’ wedding there were just two children. The parents of one allowed him to run around the dance floor during the first dance and sit on the brides dress so she actually couldn’t move. You don’t get those moments back.Gross attitude
Yes I really don’t blame you, I have a toddler and will be having another in Feb. If I get invited to any weddings next year, they won’t be coming with meWe’ve been invited to a wedding next year, no mention of our baby who’ll be about 8 months old by then. Partner asked if we should ask if they’re invited - I said no
my toddler would be so bored and start playing up. I went to a wedding as a kid and hated it because I was so bored! No kids, no speeches, no boutonnieres, no bridesmaids (it's not a tradition in our country anyway), probably no cake, we're gonna have our song but not in a grand "first dance-everyone's looking at you" way, it's just gonna play during the night.
Congrats! That sounds lovely!We finally booked a venue for our wedding in July next year, I feel like we were so late and everything was so booked already but in the end we managed to find a beautiful villa in Italy, it's from 16th century and it's a part of a winery so it's perfect. We're also doing very untraditional wedding and I love that this villa is really unknown and usually not used for weddings.
We're not doing most of the things people do at weddings.
It's also going to start in the afternoon, guests will arrive around 4pm, then cocktail hour, symbolic ceremony, then drinks and dinner and party. I love that this place doesn't have any neighbours around (for over 2km) so we can play music outside for as long and as loud as we like. Lot's of venues we've seen tried to convince us that 2am is long enough for the party but knowing our friends and the fact it's gonna start pretty late I'm glad we found something that allows us to stay all night.
