Hi everyone!
My fiance and I have been together for 5.5 years and have been engaged for 6 months. We are getting married on September 7th of this year.
My fiance is DEAD SET on having a dry wedding. I would really like some alcohol there, but he has made it clear that he does not. We have tried to discuss it, but it never goes well. We have actually been arguing about it for the last few weeks, and I am completely sick of it (and willing to just let it go). I should mention that he has allowed me to plan 100% of the other wedding details, and this is the one this that he has asked for.
So, we are having a dry wedding.
The kind of good news is that (1) We are already having a brunch/lunch reception and (2) The reception is only scheduled for 2.5 hours.
Right now, we have coffee, tea, soda, juice, and water. We are also thinking of renting an espresso bar to make the reception a little more fun.
Other random points:
We are inviting 93 guests and expecting 80-85 to show up
Renting a mic/speakers was around the same cost of hiring a DJ, so we will have a DJ and dancing. He is confident that his family will dance (they are used to dry weddings)
How bad does this sound? I am so worried that the reception will be boring, but I hate causing conflict with my fiance over this.
