When including children at your wedding, would you consider offering childminding? How does it work? Do you need to cover the wedding ceremony and the wedding reception? Do you lock them up in a room far away from the festivities? Do you set up a table just for kids? Would your guests be happy handing their kids over to someone else?
1. Should Children Be Seen and Not Heard?
As each generation gap widens over time, we all seem to be feeling as though we know less about kids today. Somewhere along the way, we lost touch with our own ways of youth. Where did it all go wrong? We all have fond memories of weddings in our past, no doubt. And yet, as we got older and our friends all took their steps down the aisle… not a child in sight.
2. Where did it all go wrong?
We’re pretty sure that kids and weddings, while the thought of which might send shivers down your spine, are not the worst combination to manifest.
Do we really need our mothers running around last minute to find 50+ bubble dispensers on the off chance guests might bring their children because the invites didn’t exactly say no to the kids and the funny thing about children is that you’re stuck with them. Whatever happened to running around with other kids and playing in flowerbeds? Admittedly, yes, nowadays the venues are at fault for wanting to keep their areas in pristine condition. It’s almost like a constant cycle of wanting your friends at your wedding, with no options for their children.
3. This changes, today!
Get Hitched has worked hard to source some of the best childminders that service weddings in Malta so you no longer have to worry about anything going wrong. It’s all about how we react to children these days. Yes, at times they can be annoying. But at the same time, at weddings, they can be a beautiful thing. What bride wouldn’t want a little girl running up to her and whispering in her ear that she looks like a Disney princess?
