What would you class as immediate family ....

[hilbil21]

I may be totally off the mark here but if you received an invitation advising no kids apart from immediate family, what would you class immediate family as?

[SweetChickadee]

parents and siblings IMHO

[Jackie0]

Nephews & nieces ?
My definition of immediate family is parents children and siblings but in the context you describe that wouldn't make sense.

[FadedRed]

Parents and siblings, and the DC's of the B&G if they had any.

Kids of siblings allowed would be my interpretation.

Ok so I am having basically an adults only wedding. My son and my OH niece are only kids coming. So on my invites I stated only children would be immediate family children.

I'm being questioned as to why my OH cousins son can't come as he is immediate family?

I was starting to question my own definition so wanted to check I wasn't being totally unreasonable

Thanks everyone for your replies

[Jackie0]

Congratulations hilbil
Don't doubt yourself , you were perfectly clear.
Some people love pushing it

[hilbil21]

Thank you - I was starting to think I hadn't made it clear enough!

[Ladybird08]

Parents, husband and own children.
If I had a wedding invite that said children of immediate family children only I would probably pressure neices and nephews but not cousins/cousins children
