S/O is alcohol a requirement for a wedding reception?

[Roxygurl]

There was a discussion in another post of mine regarding alcohol at wedding receptions so I thought I'd start a new post and gets y'all's opinion.

Would you base your decision to attend a wedding/reception based solely on if there will be alcohol or not?

 I would attend a wedding reception without alcohol, no problem. But, depending on whose wedding it was, there would be a good chance I wouldn't go if there was alcohol there. I don't have anything against people drinking, but I don't drink, and unless I'm drunk, I can't stand being around other people who are. They usually act too stupid, lol.

If alcohol is offered it should be paid for by the host. It wouldn't be a deciding factor though.

I don't drink, so I wouldn't let that decide whether or not I attend.  However, if lots of people are getting sloppy drunk I will leave.  Drunks are annoying when you're not drinking too!

 You don't need alcohol to have a good time and if you do, then you have a problem.

There won't be any at mine.

I wish I could like your post 1000 times.

Quoting Armymom134:

I wouldn't necessarily make that the deciding factor, but most of my family's functions require some level of alcohol for me to be able to tolerate them beyond dinner. At least then I have the liquid courage necessary to speak up when they're being a-holes.

Well, you know my answer.

I wouldn't base my ATTENDANCE on it, but it would either make me look forward to it, or DREAD it.

I don't even drink much, but a champagne toast, or glass of wine might be a nice option. And you don't even have to do an open bar, a cash bar is fine - just to have the option.
