Cash bar

@ LadyMonk - We good

Wow, this thread is still going............ slightly impressed.

Damn...I missed another good thread due to people hiding?! Ugh, I always miss out on the fun stuff.

I'm new and even I remember names. Helps when you have brain cells.

WAIT---Marissa, you have four stars and you can't name O&S off of her (VERY UNIQUE) avatar?

GymRat, how new are you? (You got that five star life!) Also, the fact that we are getting married four days apart and have at least a year left together of this crazy place makes me just so happy.

Also want to interject here that a couple of months ago, FH and I decided there were too many costs involved and too much stress and we called off the wedding. We STILL were going to drop a grand on taking our family and a few friends out to dinner and drinks. Even when we were planning on doing the courthouse thing we knew we wanted to show our nearest and dearest appreciation and celebrate this awesome thing.

You're (the generic you're) being a bad host plain and simple. And you're not having the wedding you can afford if you can't provide the party basics (food & drinks). Do emailed STD's, get a $300 dress instead of a $3000 dress and buy some fucking vodka.

ETA: Been here like 3 weeks. All I know is O&S is the mean one (which I've grown to like) and GymRat is sass.

We are having beer and wine. We don't really want liquor. Some people carry it in their cars to weddings. We want a toast but do not want it to be open season for heavy drinkers.

Yeah O&S WHO ARE YOU EVEN? Where's Lauren and her meme?

@ Marissa....so, you're letting your officiant, who is literally gone after the ceremony (presumably, guests won't bring open containers to the ceremony) dictate your style of hosting?

Nice try.

Yeah, that's the most ridiculous thing I've heard all day.

So they can't perform a marriage where there is drinking?

Easy...don't drink at the ceremony.

TADA! Problem solved!!!

Holy schmoly! I can't believe this thread is still going!

Wait! Marissa, are you seriously having a dry wedding because of your officiant???

Yeah the officiant shouldn't be there for the drinking... Unless you were originally planning to have a ceremony WITH alcohol. Which isn't a thing. So, you are fine.

Dry wedding on Memorial Day? ....I would decline w/o regret. Edit: I may just get extra drunk on the beach that day and drag my ass to work on Tuesday. Still no regret.

Love the memes! @Bryce, it's almost to 400! and you were hoping to hit 200 hahaha

I had a nightmare last night there was yet another cash bar thread.

Oh wait...

WAIT- who says a wedding WITH alcohol isn't a thing? We were planning on making a mimosa for our unity thing and taking a sip together. Celia---HELP. Can we not actually do this?

Beautivant, no you two totally can! I was saying that they could just cut back on GUEST consumption during a ceremony (which, to my knowledge, is not something I've ever seen... drinks being served during the ceremony)

I comment too much @Beutivant LOL aka I have no life! I want to say 2 months? I'm on mobile now and can't check. 4 days apart!! Yaaaay we are MDW wedding twins! lol
