Hello everyone!
I need some honest opinions from a guest perspective regarding alcohol choices at our wedding. We aren't allowed hard liquor during the reception, but we're allowed one signature cocktail for cocktail hour.
FH will be choosing 2 types of beer, and we'll also have 1 white wine and 1 red wine option. I'm on the fence about adding a flavor of seltzer to the mix for our guests that prefer that. My reason for this is because our wedding party is allowed to bring what they want to drink to the venue the Friday before our wedding and most of them will be drinking a seltzer like white claw or truly. The venue owner told us to just relay the message to our bartenders, and that they'll keep our bridal parties' drinks in a separate cooler.
FH and I don't want our other guests to get upset that our bridal party is drinking the seltzers if we don't include that as an option for our other guests. Not sure if this would be a factor, but we're doing slim can coozies as our favor ,and our wedding party will be bringing their own brumates, so it's not like anyone would actually see them walking around and tell what they're drinking.
I'm probably overthinking it though lol. As a guest, would you notice or care that the bridal party is drinking seltzers and it's not an option for you? Should we just add one flavor to our drink menu and leave it at that?
