So I have been discussing my ideas with my FI and he is indecisive.
I plan on having just a half hour cocktail hour before the reception begins. Once the reception begins & leads into dinner I plan on closing the bar and serving only wine & water through the dinner and until speeches/toasts are finished. Once everything is finished I will open the bar again.
I guess my question is - will this come off as rude?
I just don't want people lining up for the bar while people are talking and making speeches, I would somewhat like it if they pretended to pay attention. - I also hope this will keep some of the costs down.
thoughts?
