How do you word no children on a wedding website FAQ?

Answered by the UK Wedding Websites editorial team · Updated 2026-10-12 · For parents

Short answer

Say it clearly and kindly in plain language, explain that it is an adult-only event, and offer no room for negotiation while remaining warm.

Put the message in a clear FAQ section so guests find it before booking. Use simple words and avoid sounding stern. You might write that you have chosen to make the day an adult-only celebration and that this applies to all guests. Keep the wording consistent across invitations, save-the-dates and the website.

Avoid phrases that sound like a rule about behaviour. A note about capacity or venue limits can help, but do not invent a reason you cannot verify. If you have a policy on teenagers, say so plainly. Some couples allow older children but not babies, and that is fine to state.

Be prepared for questions. Parents may call or message to ask about exceptions. Decide your answer in advance and stay firm but kind. Do not leave it open to debate, or you will get many more requests. If you need to turn down a request, thank them for understanding and move on quickly.
