Dry Reception

My FH and I have decided to have a dry reception (our venue requires us to have wedding insurance if we offer alcohol and the insurance alone is $300). We never told anyone that we planned on having alcohol and many people have assumed we arent because we dont drink ourselves. Should we tell people...

Anyone have experience with dry wedding receptions? TIA

    I have only been to one dry wedding and no we were not 'warned' it was dry.

    We had a lot of fun.

    (I might have danced better - or maybe not) lol

    I have done many dry wedding receptions I actually Done one this weekend... as long as you have a good interactive DJ and good food LOL things will go Justice plan maybe even consider putting in a photo booth for more activities for the guests. The couple I done the wedding for this weekend had a corner of the hall decorated very nice and they had a Polaroid camera on a table for people to walk over and take pictures of each other... sometimes the only thing I really noticed about a dry wedding they may end a little earlier than a wedding with alcohol which is no problem at all....

    I don't think a small note on your website would hurt. Then the truly desperate drinkers can sneak in a flask 😉
