Can I bring my children to the wedding? While we love your little ones, we’re keeping our guest list intimate and focused on a smooth experience for all. Attendance is limited to children of immediate family and a few pre-approved guests. Why are you limiting children? We’re planning a formal celebration and want to ensure an atmosphere that’s comfortable for all guests. Limiting attendance helps us stay within venue capacity, manage catering, and keep the vibe just right for the setting. Who qualifies as “immediate family”? Immediate family includes our own children, siblings' children, and any children specifically named on your invitation. What if I’m unsure if my child is invited? If your invitation doesn’t list your child by name or reference your family as a whole, your RSVP is expected to reflect only the listed guests. If you're unsure, feel free to reach out—we’re happy to clarify. Can I make a request for my child to attend? We understand every situation is different. If you have special circumstances, please contact us directly so we can talk it through. Thanks so much for understanding. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
