We had 2 kegs and a cash bar. If you wanted mixed drinks, you're on your own. Everyone was putting money down at the bar though. People would drop $100 here and $100 there. Most of the times at cash bars it turns out like that. People get liquored up and put money down.

Which, I think, is a good way to go about things. Those beverages will cover the vast amount of guests and the beer could cost all of $300-400 given keg costs. I'd guess buying the selections of wine would jump that to $1000 which isn't terrible either.
Then you let the venue price the hard liquors so if someone really needs a fix they can get it. That's what the wedding I was in Saturday did and let me tell you, I had to trouble getting buzzed up.

Normally I would think that's the way they'd go, but based on this family I was expecting to be sipping top shelf liquor all weekend on their dime.
Kind of upset |

Getting married next summer. Where we are having the reception does not do kegs so we are getting 2 drink tickets for everyone. I'm not going to pay for people to get drunk.

I would disinvite anyone I caught bitching about a cash bar.
You absolutely don't have to be a part of my day.

Just means you go cheaper on their gift if that's how they treat you to attend their wedding.

Pretty silly to get upset about attending a wedding with a cash bar.
If it's that big of a deal don't go. |

That's a good exception that makes sense. Offers something while still saving some money. Plus the non-drinkers can give their tickets to those drinking.

I don't care who's feelings are hurt - it's god damned tacky to have a guest pay for alcohol. Period.

Bringing kids to a wedding that aren't invited is just stupid. Some people assume that if they are invited, then their kids are welcome also.
