Engaged couple enforces 'no kids' rule at wedding, brother of the groom crashes with his 7-year-old stepdaughter: 'No children are allowed!'

It's remarkable how many family members think they are entitled to breaking rules at a wedding just because they have a personal connection to the happy couple.

The truth of the matter is that one of the most stressful components of organizing an event as big as a wedding is finding the balance between your needs and the needs of your family. It's always worth giving the engaged couple the benefit of the doubt and assuming that they have thought their decision through carefully. If they haven't, then their wedding might not go exactly as planned, and that's not your problem as a tertiary family member.

Too many folks think that they know what's best for the people getting married, so they like to give unsolicited advice or make unnecessary requests that ultimately only end up creating more conflict. Keep scrolling below for this tale of a groom's brother who insisted on bringing his stepdaughter to the wedding despite the fact that it was made clear months prior that no children were allowed at the reception.

People need to stop taking “no kids” rules personally because it's literally not about them. It's about the couple getting married, and they are allowed to make whatever requests they would like since it's their big day. The same can be said of who they choose to put in their bridal parties or what food they want to serve their guests. Get a grip, people! It's not about you!
