This will work if everyone understands and accepts the bride's request. But this may cause hurt feelings with guests who feel their children should be part of the celebration. If you want to have young family members and guests attend your wedding, there are things you can do to make a kid-friendly environment. Consider setting up a play-table at the reception. This can include storybooks, paper and crayons, puzzles, and activity books.
Kids also enjoy using disposable cameras just as much as grown-up guests.
Remember not to set out anything that could be noisy or messy. Make sure the kids' table is near an adult who can supervise if things get a little rowdy. Kids love to imitate adults, but they also like things they're familiar with. Cater to their needs on the menu with some simple changes. Offer kids apple juice in miniature glasses so they can join in the toasts.
