Inviting Kids to a Destination Wedding?

As the bride and groom turned toward each other to say their vows, the ocean sparkled in the background and white sand warmed the guests’ feet. The moment was interrupted only by a toddler - mine - yelling, “I want to sit in Mommy’s lap!”

I scooped him up, only to knock the pacifier out of my two-month-old’s mouth. Her lips quivered, preparing for a full-blown wail. I popped it back in just in time.

Double meltdown averted. Still, the ceremony was a harrowing half-hour for me.

Bringing the kids along to “destination weddings” - those that require travel to exotic locales - has become a priority and a challenge for many bridal couples and their guests.
