Won't SOMEONE Think of the Children?
It seems more and more of our family and friends are coming in sets of 3, 4 or more these days as everyone is having kids. While we see the point that some weddings are adult only affairs (C's first wedding was kid-free after all), that's not going to be the case with this wedding. Weddings are a happy, right-of-passage event of which we think children should be active participants.
That said, we were already planning to have a babysitting service when we discovered that Holly Farm requires one. This is better for everybody, as both of us can still remember how boring it is while adults sit around and *gasp* talk. We figure little ones can sit through the ceremony (it won't be that long, we promise). And we will have kid-friendly food for dinner (think nuggets or pizza).
During the reception (probably starting after dinner) there will be a special kids-only sub-event. It will be run by Corporate Kid Events. Anyone under 12, including infants, is welcome, in fact encouraged, to attend. There will be games, crafts, and an all around good time. We will need an accurate count of how many youngsters will be participating so they can bring enough supplies and whatnot. Stay tuned for info on how to sign up.
