You can print the number of invited people on the RSVP card. If a couple gets an RSVP card with a 2, they will know their kids aren't invited. Of course, address the invites to Mr. & Mrs. So-and-so, not The So-and-so Family. Also, IMO, you could still say "Adults Only" if you want. When people arrive and see your niece and nephew, they will just assume you made an exception for family, which is perfectly reasonable.
on ours we put...
"we have reserved ____ seats for you"
And it wasn't necessarly that we didn't WANT children at our wedding..we just don't have SPACE for children. I'm not going to reserve seats for infants and toddlers. :) So...several couples are bringing their kids, and having them sit on their laps.
I also printed our own reply cards. It's a little more work but I actually typed in the peoples names that were invited. For example, our reply cards read Mr.& Mrs. John Doe, Will Attend/ Will not attend, followed by the meal selections.
For the kids that we have invited, I put a little hand written note in the invitation saying the whole family is welcome.
My mother just got an invite that worded it nicely...
"Due to space limitations, we regret that we are unable to include children"
We thought that was clear, kind, and understanable.

I'm having my wedding reception in my apartment which is spacious but space is obviously still limited. I have enough space for the adults only. I am printing my own RSVP's and wanted to make a note on it stating its adults only. However, I am unsure of how to word this without sounding like a jerk. I also dont want to use the phrase "adults only" because my niece and nephew are the only children that will be there. Any suggestions??
