I had to change my date and venue recently, the new venue is my home church and the pastor said no champagne toast or alcohol of any kind. My friends and family love to drink and a lot of them are Italians so it will be a huge shocker for them, that nothing is offered not even wine. It makes me kind of sad, but I want this venue, I am just worried it won't be fun or the party will end early. Also considering any music I play needs to be relatively clean, not that I was planning on playing club music lol. I thought about lawn games and stuff but think they are cheesy. I thought about adding like either a cool surprise like a food truck or something else for later on, I just don't want the party to end after dinner. All of the wedding will take place at the church. Any suggestions if you went to a dry wedding, what you would do for fun? lol. I really don't want my guest to focus on the lack of alcohol which I know will be obvious.
