are being tested, name puns drafted, cardstock carted to the printers. Couples, making up for lost time, are planning the biggest wedding year since the 1980s, with marriages in the US up a whopping 50% from 2020, according to reporting fromBut for many, budgets are tighter than ever. Thepersists.
“You wouldn’t believe the amount of people who are acting like I requested they throw their kids off a bridge or put them up for adoption,” says Samantha, a 28-year-old bride who threw a child-free wedding in October in South Carolina. Samantha and her wife do not have children, and they wanted their wedding to feel more like a raucous party than a toddler’s birthday. Some guests were thrilled at the prospect of a night off from parenting, says Samantha. Others resisted. “I can’t find child care, I will be bringing my child,” a guest informed Samantha. And some people, citing the no-kid policy, refused the invitation entirely.
That means different values and different budgets—and each child on the guest list impacts that budget. “It’s a chair at a table,” says Bartel. “Now an adult guest can’t be invited because of that kid.” In many cultures, children traditionally play an important role in weddings—often in the wedding party, to symbolise the future generations the couple will produce.
