So, where I work we also have a wedding/reception venue and every weekend there are weddings here. The special events director has an office next door to mine and she is a LOUD talker so I hear most of her conversations. Right now she is arguing with the liquor license people because a minor was served at the wedding that was here last weekend. Her argument is that they have no idea of knowing if someone is a minor at a wedding and that it's not our responsibility to deny service unless a guest is overly drunk and causing problems (as stated in the contract). Obviously at a wedding the staff does not card due to the nature of the event.
So what are your thoughts? At a wedding is it up to the parents or the venue to police underage drinking? (obviously this was an older minor - no one is going to mistake serving a 10 yr old.)
