Child Carers:

A difficult decision to make is if to allow the children of guests to attend or not, the other is where to draw the line between children, teenages and young adults. This all comes back to a budget figure! can you afford to have the family tree at your wedding?

More often than not the answer is no, we can't afford that. One way of easing the pressure on this decision is to organise a childcarer for the wedding. This way all the children of the guests (who may already know each other) can get together and have their own party. no doubt they will have a much better time without thier parents

You may find that organising this will be very cost effective as the parents will put together and pay for the service and thus be able to relax during the reception. If they are from out of town they will appreciate that you have organised this service with someone that is trustworthy, the children can still attend the service and attend any "next day" functions your family have planned.
