Couples these days do not want kids to disrupt their wedding so they prefer childfree weddings but some entitled guests do not respect the couple’s desires.
Some people want their wedding to be perfect and there is nothing wrong with it. If someone wants a child-free wedding, please, respect their opinion and leave your kids home or with a babysitter. A mother of a 10 month old baby shared that her cousin invited her to his childfree wedding. She did not want to leave her kid with a babysitter so she wrote on the RSVP that she would be bringing her son and would bring his food along. The groom didn’t respond so OP that he would be fine with it. Everyone else left their kids with a babysitter except OP. Her son cried once during the ceremony and she took him out. Groom’s mother confronted OP after the wedding ceremony. Scroll down to read what the groom’s mother said to OP.

OP should have not brought her son to her cousin’s child-free wedding. A child-free wedding means no child would be allowed but she went over the rules and ruined the couple’s wedding. If she could not afford a babysitter or was not comfortable leaving her son with a babysitter, she should have stayed home. Scroll down to read what the Reddit community thinks about OP.
