Well realistically speaking, the only people invited are the ones listed on the envelope, so if you are inviting Mr. and Mrs. Paul Smith, and on the inner envelope that is what it's supposed to say, then they are the only ones invited even if they have children. People seem to think that's it's ok to RSVP for more than who are invited because most people don't understand the etiquette of invites in general. Putting Adults only may offend, but if it's what you want, then go for it. Just remember you are going to catch crap if there are a lot of kids, and most people just bring their kids anyhow.

For instance one of my future MILs friends brought her 11 yo daughter to my bridal shower. Granted, nothing out of the ordinary was planned, but generally it's rude to just invite someone who wasn't specified on the envelope, and I barely know the kid. My sister was there, but she's almost 17 and in my wedding.
