Children have been attending weddings for decades. However, it seems that nowadays this issue arouses much more emotions than before. Some time ago, an article appeared on the presence of teenagers and teenagers at such parties. It turns out that opinions on this matter are strongly divided.
Children not welcome at weddings? “Start drinking less and having fun”
When inviting guests to their wedding, many engaged couples emphasize that they should appear without children. This is not necessarily met with a positive reception. Many people would like to participate in this event, but they cannot leave their children at home. Others just want to have fun together. One reader pointed this out:
For me, it’s not cool to invite people without children, because they are family members. As long as it’s a family wedding.
Start drinking less and having fun, and you will start seeing your children better at such celebrations
– wrote another person, drawing attention to the issue of alcohol. It has long been known that interest often flows freely during weddings. Not every adult can control his or her behavior after a few deep dives. And for many, such a party is even an opportunity not to even try. Children are watching everything, which does not necessarily suit both those who drink and the guardians of small children.
This is not a place for children, where there is alcohol and where most elders do not know how to behave.
In my opinion, children should not be taken where there is alcohol
I would love to take my children to a party at Versailles, where guests stop for a sip of champagne and whisper elegant conversations to the sound of a waltz. Unfortunately, most Polish weddings don’t look like this

“If you can’t afford a sitter, just don’t go to the wedding.”
There were also voices related to the “endurance” of children. First getting ready, then the ceremony, and finally the wedding. In between, you also need to take into account commuting and shorter or longer breaks. The whole event can last up to several hours, which can be tiring also for adults. In the past, no one was surprised to see children sleeping on sofas, chairs pushed together, or even under tables. Today this is increasingly unthinkable. However, there are ways to deal with this.
You don’t have to invite children to weddings. They don’t last 6/7 hours of partying! You need to write ‘no children’ on the invitation. If you can’t afford a babysitter, just don’t go to the party
My child dances with us. It’s true that he doesn’t last long, but it taught me that when he wants to go home, we arrange a babysitter for him and we go back to the party.

What do you think about the presence of children at a wedding? Do you think it’s appropriate to invite them without them, or maybe you side with the first person quoted, that they are family members and have the same right to have fun with everyone else? We are curious about your opinions.
