[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve been to one and it surprised me a little but it was a young couple and they prioritized food. They had champagne and wine at the table but everything else was a cash bar.

I’m a little surprised by the responses on here calling it tacky. Everyone with good manners know you adjust to whatever situation you are presented with in social settings with grace. It’s tacky to call it tacky. [/quote]
I've been to many weddings (one as the groom, several as a groomsman and others as a guest). Obviously every wedding has its own budget. But from a guest's perspective you're paying to travel to the wedding, paying to stay at a hotel and contributing a gift. Paying for drinks just feels like being nickel-and-dimed. To give an example in the opposite direction: At one wedding I attended the bride and groom went to the hotel they'd booked and provided goodie bags of snacks for every room in their block. These were greatly appreciated by those arriving hungry after a long day of travel. Sometimes the little things matter.[/quote]
