Re: Dry Weddings
I'll reply late. I have been to a dry wedding before, but only once. (Childhood BFF got married when she was 20, so no alcohol as she and most of her friends were underage.) Her wedding was early, also, so that may have played a factor.
As far as a cash bar goes, I am from central (read: rural) Maine, and around where I am, that seems to be the norm. I have never been to a wedding with an open bar. We had a cash bar at our wedding but served soda, tea, and coffee. College BFF did the same. We couldn't afford to do an open bar, and even though the Knot said it was tacky not to, I pitched it to my mom who said that she has never been to an open bar wedding either. So we went with cash. It worked out fine for us.
As far as a dry wedding goes, while it might not go unnoticed, I would not have any problems as I rarely drink. If it were for religious/ spiritual/ AA reasons, I would be totally fine with it. Otherwise, you could at least have a cash bar- but really, I don't think it would ruin my good time.
