Wed, Dec 17th, 2008
One of our readers had a question that she needed some advice on and thought this might be helpful to all our readers.
Her question is below and Cyndi Basker, owner and planner of Celebrated Events and a Wedding Day contributing editor, gave her thoughts on this matter.
Reader Question
Our wedding will be late in the evening and we do not want screaming kids there. We are providing a babysitter, for guests who need it, on site, but what is the age limit or do I let the parents decide? How should I show that on the invitation?
Cyndi Baskers advice
The essential purpose of the wedding invitation is to invite your guests and tell them when and where the wedding is being held, it is also proper etiquette. All other information should be conveyed on a seperate card. Included in this "other" information might be an accomodation card, and/or a map and directions. This is how I recommend letting your guests know that a babysitter will be available during the wedding. There really is no hard or fast rule with regard to an age limit on utilizing a babysitter, plus, the parents will know best who needs to be supervised and who does not.
