Booze at a wedding

I have skipped weddings once I heard they had a cash bar.

 

I haven't skipped one with cash bar/no booze but they have not been as much fun as the ones with.

 

My wedding had free everything, and lots and lots of mixed drinks for free, 6 beers on tap, and we offered everything except for shots, the bar servers wouldn't let us, so you got it on the rocks and drank it like a shot.

Charging your guests makes you look cheap, and I am a cheap-ass person when it comes to giving others free shit. It is just one of those things. Weddings arent cheap.

 

My wedding was fairly similar to this.

 

Another nice thing is to have engraved mugs/wine glasses for the wedding party, those people had access to a private stock of shots and liquors.

 

for beer. just get cans and ice and dump it in a trash can!! lol

oh and don’t for get the beer cozies! lol

 

redneck much?
edit: Tiger beat me to it.

 

What's the point of a reception/after party if there's not an open bar?

 

hey when the wedding and after party is in a filed and about 35 years from a barn what do you expect? lol

 

I'd go with option 2 free beer/wine and they pay for whatever else and maybe a round of champagne for when the best man best woman do their toast. My Dad, a few friends of his, and myself have catered a few weddings with an open bar and it's hilarious to watch people get shit faced and make a fool of themselves if you aren't the one's getting married and being embarrassed. The worst one was when a girl got shit faced, fell into the pond, and almost drowned after slapping a bridesmaid for dancing with the guy she was trying to hook up with earlier that evening. I come from a long line of alcoholics so an open bar would not be the best idea at a family wedding, I've seen the damage these people can do they had to make a few trips to the store to pick up more beer after laying waste to a couple of kegs.

 

I expect the groom and bride to be related

 

Nothing wrong with this option, chances are the facility won't allow it. We had to by from them, it was $400-500 per keg, f-ing ridiculous.

 

haha. now thats just Fu**ed up!!!

 

nope its been 1 year and half and she still not.

 

bring a keg of moonshine and call it a day, everyone will be too fucked up to even remember the wedding

The reception is not to drink yourself in a coma, it is to enjoy time with the wedding party. I can have a great time with kool-aid if that's all that is offered. I don't really understand why some people can't have a good time without alcohol involved.
But that's just me - nothing personal to those who drink....back to the topic....
