101 To Do's: 53 - If you have guests attending from out of town who are parents, suggest babysitting options for them!

 This step only applies if you're having an "Adult Only" wedding. If you have important guests travelling in from far away places or another country, and they are bringing their children, they may need your help in locating child care.

3 Options for assisting your out of town wedding guests with children, find childcare:

1. If you already know trustworthy child care providers. Make arrangements to have them on site at your wedding location. Your wedding venue will most likely have additional rooms that can be used.

3. Consider reserving hotels that have childcare provisions. Some hotels have child care onsite as an amenity.
