Hello how may I help you? Hi I need help planning my wedding I can help you with that. What would you like to know? Do you I have invite the children to the wedding? Can't I just have the adults attend the ceremony? You do not have to invite children if you would prefer not to. Is there a limit to the number of guests I can invite? That is entirely up to you, though there may be limits on how many people your venue can hold. For greater flexibility, you can make the ceremony for adults only and have the reception for the whole family I like the idea of having a separate reception. It is a common practice, simply put those instructions in the invitation Awesome! Thanks for your input welcome
