So, you quit responding to your post.... So maybe you can answer my question here. People have suggested both a dry wedding or a limited alcohol selection (eg beer & wine), can you please explain to me why these options aren't valid? I am not attacking you, seriously want to know. You never responded to these things....

    Why would she respond? I mean jeese you can give her an opinion without tearing her to shreds. I am surprised anyone stays.

    If everyone is being so b!tchy here, why the hell are you still here? The OP came for advice (or, validation) and SHE GOT IT. Just because it wasn't what she wanted to hear, that makes everyone queen b!tch, right? Try coming back in the middle of the day on a weekday. Yeah, that will be fun.

    *she got advice she asked for, not the validation she was actually looking for.

    EJ- honestly there was a lot of good advice in that post. It was her choice (and yours) to focus on the negative. If she was really looking for advice she would have responded to the constructive suggestions below or at least responded to what I had to say.

    EJ - Also, your initial response to her questions was rather catty. You said "Just ask daddy for more money." So, I am confused why you are now up in arms.

    erose, I didn't get a chance to respond to you because you deleted before I could get to you (horrible rude, btw), but I suggest skipping alcohol completely. We're getting married at a church, so no alcohol for us. It's probably the best option in your situation.

    I meant that seriously. She said her dad was paying so I told her to ask him for more. I don't agree with the idea of acash bar either but I don't thin she deserved what she got.

    Anyway, back to OP, I agree that it is pretty crap for it to be a requirement to have alcohol at a wedding. Those that say they wouldnt' go to a wedding if it was cash bar or a dry wedding sound pretty childish to me. However, if you DO choose to have alcohol, it is absolutly your responsibility to pay for it. *coming from someone that had to cut things and have lots of DIY to just afford beer and wine.

    EJ- why do I have the distinct sense you are simply stirring up trouble. There was nothing benign about your comment. Also, I was not alone in offering helpful advice, as aforementioned a great deal of it was constructive. My confusion lies in, if erose was sincerely looking for advice why has she not responded to that part of the original post or to my post?
