[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have been to one cash bar wedding. The couple had just graduated college, lived in the Midwest, and were somewhat religious and not big drinkers themselves. So it was sort of like, “if you want booze, it’s available, but we’re not breaking the bank to provide you with it.” There was also a dollar dance, which I have never seen since then.[/quote]

PP who has been to tons of weddings at fire halls with cash bars. Dollar dances always happened, even where there was an open bar. And there was always a chicken dance and a bunch of other polkas.

I don’t find it tacky at all. I think it’s ridiculous to go into debt for a wedding. No one is forcing anyone to drink or do the dollar dance. But if you choose to, it’s available and it’s always cheap. [/quote]

Going into debt for a wedding is absolutely ridiculous you’re correct. So have the wedding you can afford. If that’s a smaller guest list, a venue that doesn’t cost thousands of dollars to rent, serving only wine and beer (or not serving alcohol at all, even), then that’s completely fine. You can have a lovely wedding at any price point. Having a larger wedding than you can afford and then expecting your guests to foot the bill is what’s tacky. [/quote]

People on here do not understand manners and grace. If a couple wants to have a cash bar for alcohol, that’s their choice. It’s not tacky. If you don’t want to pay for a drink, don’t. If you can’t live without a drink at a wedding, you have bigger issues. [/quote]
