Cash Bar at Reception?

The more I have read online, the more I question having a cash bar at our reception, as other posters have said alcohol is something you remember. FH and I are both underage currently, and when we get married next year, I will be 21 and FH will be 20. We are not the drinking type, so we are not worried about having alcohol at our reception, but of course, it will be option to those who want it at a cash bar.

Here's my question to you all: what do you think of cash bars? Do they really leave a long-lasting bad impression on reception guests?

    Well, I have to say adios! I am starting work and this is too addicting to just check periodically. Thank you everyone for the entertainment. Have a marvelous day!

    And OP, you're going to be fine with whatever decision you make. Everything is circumstantial!

    @future mrs g lol!! Something you and ALL of my guests have in common. Them getting shitfaced is a reason a lot of them will be finding babysitters for the day of. My wedding will consist of everyone pregaming and binge drinking the rest of the day. If u can see, u can even tell me and my hunny are heavy drinkers, he's holding a drink in our profile pic.

    Ugh people. All the "I'm not going over budget to get my guests drunk" talk is so ridiculous. You include providing some form of alcohol in the budget from the beginning, resulting in it not causing you to go over budget. We spent almost $10,000 on alcohol for our wedding. It was an accepted fact of life knowing how many people we invited and how many drinks they were going to drink in 5.5 hours. We budgeted for it, and it was 100% worth it.
