Thanks for your question - and congratulations on your upcoming wedding! First, let's concede that if you are already planning to invite your little niece and nephew, then you really aren't planning an adults-only wedding. It sounds more like a "mostly-adults-and-a-few-select-children" sort of wedding. And fair enough, you can invite whomever you like.
Even if you ruffle a few feathers in the process of building your guestlist (you can't please everyone when it comes to your wedding), handling it delicately should allow you to to smooth anything out.
I wrote a piece on this very subject just last week, so if you like, you can check out www.weddingbells.ca/blogs/advice/2012/04/25/the-dos-and-donts-of-hosting-an-adults-only-wedding
The short of it, however, is to balance any potential hurt feelings with how you really want your wedding to play out. In this case, yes, parents of children around your niece and nephew's age will wonder why their own kids weren't invited, if these two little ones were.
It's all in how you handle it with them.
I hope I've helped, take a read of that piece and hit me back if there's anything else I can do! Good luck! -
When optimists and pessimists are debating just how full or empty that glass is, I've already drank it. I'm an opportunist.

Flings by definition aren't heavy, so why did you ever stop being friends? Maybe it wasn't a fling?
Relationships aren't democracies, so you can only move into another stage of your relationship when both people are on the same page. They have to want what you want. And being friends means things like....it doesn't hurt your heart when you see them. You don't want to jump into bed with them. You are comfortable with both of you being romantically involved with others.
And the stars and planets being aligned and all that good stuff, too.
Disclaimer: I'm punching above my weight on this...I'm of the mind that I don't want my physiotherapist doing my income taxes. I don't dole out relationship advice, but since you asked for it..... -

Tic-Tack (the delicious El Salvadorian white spirit) goes with everything, in my books. It is sugar cane based, so you can mix it like rum. Or you can sub it in for vodka in a "lemon drop", which is how i served it up on New Year's eve (but I shook it with a few raspberries to make it a pretty colour).
And if you really, really like Tic-Tack (who doesn't?) you can join their Facebook fan page -> www.facebook.com/pages/Tic-T%C3%A1ck-El-Salvador/165920986830440
Enjoy it responsibly. Like any alcohol, I reckon it will ruin you over time if you get down with it too much/too often. -
Thanks! I'll pass the props along to my dentist.
I actively try to keep a good outlook. Like anything, it can take a bit of work. Negativity weighs me down, so I try and avoid it (starting with myself).
