I wasn't saying they could save for a sitter and were choosing not to.
Or maybe that's not what you were saying I was saying (confusing, sorry).
Anyway, perhaps unnecessarily, I'll clarify and say, I was just saying, I feel bad for anyone in that situation who is isolated or without options.
I lived with someone with a kid for 2.3 years. We were very isolated, with no childcare options, and never did anything together, just us, for us. A wedding that excluded kids, we would have declined. It's a moot point now, but I'll always have more empathy for people in that situation because of it.
That said, I think people have a right to make their wedding be any kind of event they want, with kids, without, whatever. I would never resent that.
