Have three DDs aged 14, 12 and 9.
Very good friends announced their engagement a few months ago and invited the DDs to be flower girls - all three delighted.
Have now received formal invitation.
It says on it that no child under 10 can attend. DD3 is 9, will still be 9 at the time of the wedding.
Contacted friends to check that DD3 was still a flower girl.
Basically they want her there for the ceremony, pictures etc, but she won't be allowed to come to the reception/party afterwards. In short DD3 is expected to sit through a long ceremony, pose for pictures, look like a little angel, etc, then watch her sisters go to a fun party that she can't attend. We are expected to sort out childcare in a place that is miles from our home.
AIBU to think this is absolutely ridiculous?
