[quote=Anonymous]I have no issues with no kids (and I have kids) nor with people who want cash. I always give cash anyway so who cares.

I also have no issue with dry weddings, especially for religious reasons. I would rather dry than a cash bar. I also think beer/wine bars are fine. I do think if you are going to have a dry wedding, better to be during the day or brunch or something. I went to an evening wedding that only served punch and water. And then they ran out of punch. At least have soda or a mocktail of some sort.

Destination weddings are ok if you are only inviting a small group of people who don't mind making it a mini vacation. Or if there is no central place for any of the guests so almost everyone will be traveling anyway. Otherwise, it's obnoxious and I have no idea why anyone would do this. Just have a wedding and go on a honeymoon. Without 100 other people.

No +1 is bad unless you know that a lot of people will be single (like you are getting married straight out of college or something). Or if you want to have a "work" table where none are bringing dates and the colleagues will be together--I would be fine with that and DH would be fine staying home.

In the end, I think a lot of couples forget that even though a wedding is "their day", these people are still your guests. So you have to place some priority on their comfort. They are coming for you and you can at least treat them with a little respect. But I also know how expensive weddings are and sometimes, you have to cut corners. Better that than go into debt for a wedding you didn't really want.  [/quote]
