After a toddler wiped her face on a bride's wedding dress, people have started calling for children to stay away from weddings. A wedding day, typically, is the day that most of us look forward to for most of our lives - and for many, buying that wedding dress is the hardest decision they'll ever have to make. But once the dress is secured, nothing bad can happen to it - because it's arguably the most expensive item of clothing that some will ever own. So all of this can be undone when a toddler during the big day has a messy face and decides that the dress looks like a giant napkin. The footage was uploaded to TikTok by @thefoxsaystwins, and the caption pretty much summed it up: "Do not recommend serving ketchup with the chicken nuggets and fries for the kiddie meal…or just don’t invite kids." [[tiktokwidget||https://www.tiktok.com/@thefoxsaystwins/video/7259049992613104942]] The video clearly shows a little girl going up to the bride and having a good old wipe of her face with the dress - though, luckily, the newlywed appears to take it all in her stride and laughs it off, as another woman hastily shoos the child away from using the dress as a tissue. Naturally, people flocked to the comments to offer their thoughts, and let's just say that not many were very complimentary to the child or her parents. One person said: "[I] used to not understand when people said no kids at their wedding but i think i understand now," while a second simply added: "Child free wedding." A third person added: "Sending this to all the people who are mad about me not allowing kids at my wedding." <img class="size-full wp-image-1263225829" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/08/Screenshot-2023-08-25-at-11.04.55-scaled.jpg" alt="" width="2560" height="233" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TikTok]] <img class="size-full wp-image-1263225830" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/08/Screenshot-2023-08-25-at-11.05.06.jpg" alt="" width="1510" height="210" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TikTok]] <img class="size-full wp-image-1263225831" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/08/Screenshot-2023-08-25-at-11.05.31-scaled.jpg" alt="" width="2560" height="197" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TikTok]] It wasn't all anti-kids though, as one comment noted how well the bride had taken the face wiping: "[Guys] the bride is chill. no need to ruin the energy in the comments." <a href="https://www.brideandgroomdirect.co.uk/blogs/news/the-pros-and-cons-of-having-a-child-free-wedding" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bride and Groom Direc</a>t has penned the pros and cons of having a child-free wedding, with the pros including an interruption-free ceremony, having a larger guest list, people being able to act in a way that they couldn't if kids were around and it can also save money. The cons include guests potentially being insulted, or straight-up refusing to come if their kids aren't invited - or being unable to come due to childcare issues o the day - and it may even make the bride and groom appear "selfish". It's a tricky decision! <h6>Featured image credit: South_agency/Getty</h6>
