alcohol or none  |
|
 I dont want alcohol at my wedding. My fiance agreed to this as long as we could at least have champagne for the toast. I still think he wants alcohol. I am terrified that people will end up drunk at my wedding. not like trashed but just crazy. he says he'll make sure they dont but he would drink too. I want everything to be perfect and i think that would just ruin it.I appreciate him being so understanding. he knows how i feel about drinking so hes trying to make things perfect for me but i dont want him to think im being unreasonable. I'll only be 20 when he get married he'll be almost 22. am I being unreasonable by asking to not have alcohol, especially if he says hes okay with it? how do i know he really is?

| 4. sedel1027 (12431) | 4 years ago |  No. I don't think that it is unreasonable. If people don't go to your recption because you don't have alcohol then they really don't want to be there. I don't think people drink as much as they use to at weddings. For my wedding my Dad insisted on the three hour bar because he didn't want to look cheap (I know he is silly). Most of the people attending our wedding are well over 30 and don't drink much. If he says it doesn't bother him, then it probably doesn't. If you want to have controlled alcohol, have a cash bar. When people have to pay for their drinks they don't drink as much.

7.  dan1107 (304) | 4 years ago |  Alcohol should be totaly forbidden in such a gethering. You are reasonable enough to ask for not to have alcohol. The only sad thing is the other party is not up to mark to understand this.

| dan1107 (304) | 4 years ago | Other party is the person(s) you want to convince about your intentions. | |

|
| ASoldiersAngel02 (407) | 4 years ago | well its not my fiance really. it was actually his idea to compromise and we agreed on champagne or wine for toasting. its a small request from him when his last marriage ended because she cheated on him and she was so mean and demanding of him. i think i can live with a little toasting wine | |

8.  GardenGerty (20561) | 4 years ago |  My son in law was determined not to have drinking when he married my daughter, and refused to let his parents host a dance at the Legion, because there would be an open bar. I was very proud of him for that. If you guys can not agree on this subject, are you sure you are ready to get married? A wedding is a religious ceremony, not an excuse to over indulge. Point out also to the fiance how much money you can save by going non alcoholic, money you could use on a nice honeymoon. We served a mock champagne as a punch, and people really enjoyed it. It was pineapple juice, apple juice and ginger ale I believe. Found it online. You two need to be able to solve problems like this by being honest and upfront. Is having alcohol at the wedding reception more important to him than having you happy? You two will have to figure that out.

| ASoldiersAngel02 (407) | 4 years ago | oh no no I think I wasnt clear. He is fine with it. He is very sweet and understands i dont like drinking and it scares me to have it at my wedding. he said if im that worried we dont need it he did ask if id compromise for champagne or wine for toasting which i can live with. its a small compromise for a happy marriage:) | |

| claudia413 (2540) | 4 years ago |  I think you're a very smart young lady. You've already learned to compromise. I'm sure wine or champagne for toasting will not get out of hand either.

he would be jerk not to respect your wishes. You're not being unreasonable. This is a very special day and you don't want a bunch of drunks ruining it. I'm sure he'll abide by your wishes.
