I’m a bridesmaid at a wedding soon and my just turned 3 DD is the flower girl, and the only child allowed at the wedding. By coincidence my parents live very close to the venue and I arranged for them to come to the car park at 7pm to pick her up and take her back to theirs for bed. Dp and I will then get a taxi back to theirs whenever the reception ends and the bride doesn’t need me anymore. Probably about midnight I’m guessing but we don’t have a time limit.
I’ve just mentioned this to the bride and she seemed a bit annoyed about dd leaving at 7 and I’m confused.. is that too early? Too late? The group photos and sit down meal will be long over by then and the evening reception will be starting at 7.30. Dd gets very tired and prone to tantrums if she’s up much past 7 so I thought it’d be good to get her away by then. Have I made a faux pas somehow? I’m confused!
