Cash bar or foot the bill? Wedding poll
So we're attending a wedding in STL in a few weeks, and instead of footing the bill themselves, it's a cash bar.

What are your thoughts on this?

I kinda think if youre having a big fancy all weekend kinda wedding, pay for the bar tab, but I get it I guess, miney wise.

So, what say you?

Update: read announcement, open bar, all is well

I give great gifts!

How many catholic weddings with a cash bar have you been to? I was born catholic and most weddings around here start at 1:00 and end at midnight. If they have a cash bar, the drinks average about $5 a drink. Between the wife and myself that can add up quickly. Yes, I have the money, but not everybody is in the same financial situation.

Plus asking people to rent a tuxedo? That's incredibly tacky.

It's s standard out dated rule of thumb. I'm sure if you goggled "how much should a wedding gift cost," you'll find all sorts of stupid people investing time into the conversation.

Juice, water, soda. These are refreshments too. You drunk.

Why would they not invite them?
They have babysitters where you live?

Good idea, but it really shouldn't even have to be noted.
If an invitation is addressed to you/you & you spouse, especially to a formal or semi-formal event, why the **** would it be assumed that yer kids are invited too?

I went to a wedding a couple weeks ago where the couple contracted everything out (i.e., not at a hotel where you are forced to use their services).

They hired a couple of bartenders, and bought all the booze themselves. It was quite a bit cheaper that way.

Because people think you like their kids and most are too cheap to hire a babysitter.

But really, it should be stated. They'll always be that one asshole who brings some kid to a big wedding party.

Having just gotten married, yes they are stupid expensive. Still, hospitality for the guests was the thing I wouldn't budge on. You don't have to serve single malts or anything, but making guests, many of whom have traveled, shell out cash for a couple drinks is weak. Just my opinion.

Nothing wrong with a cash bar wedding. So long as the champagne is free. Respect the means of others.

The family one row ahead of me at my daughter's three hour graduation ceremony Saturday, had what seemed to be a two year old and a three year old. I couldn't hear a thing with her constantly having to talk to them. So ruuuuuuude! Those ages are not going to be able to sit through a ceremony THAT long. I wasn't even sure I would be able to.

Some people have a cash bar for a period of time, then close it. Afterwards you pay. Seems like a good compromise.
