No surprise, but FH and I are running into an entanglement over alcohol. (We plan to elope and have a large party later). At the reception, we wouldn't mind offering limited drinks (wine, craft beer) but our families -mostly mine- would be up in arms over it.
One side of my family is serious opposed to drinking. The other side is seriously opposed to people who don't drink (Even those who don't make a big deal out of it). His side expects alcohol, but no drama... Ha.
Do we serve the alcohol and watch as family members from other sides argue over the right for alcohol to be there?
Do we not serve alcohol and say we had a budget?
Do we not host a reception?
