The presence of children is often contentious. Some couples welcome children with open arms and see them as a vital part of the day. Other couples favour an adults-only wedding and reception.

Either way, a clear decision must be made and adhered to. If children are invited, their names are to be written on the invitation.

Provision must be made for children at the reception, for example a special menu or an entertainer.
