I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I cannot mash that
weddings without booze?????
Man, that would be a long reception... lucky I have a family that knows the importance of alcohol at a wedding. The last one I went to had the coopers pale flowing constantly- hell, the father (my uncle) kept telling us to go to the bar to drink more!

For a moment there I thought 'Jayse' must have ventured down Cronulla way...
Shame all round. Why cant people discuss their differences over a beer? :blink:
And to quote derryn, shame australia, for old and new residents.
(Not beer related at all, but this day did not end well at all...
)
And to make things worse, my coopers ale which i overloaded with liquid malt (supplied yeast cant tolerate too much like a trappist can) is yuck, too sweet. But you know what? i'l drink it cos i made it (that and the fact i dont think anyone else will!) :beerbang:

I've never been to an alcohol free wedding, thankfully. But I can see the other side of the equation. My wife's family is very religious, and doesn't drink. That doesn't stop us, merely makes us more restrained. We have a drink and enjoy ourselves, just don't make complete dickheads of ourselves.
It's all about balance and moderation, which obviously some sisters-in-law have no grasp of.

Very well said, barf. I've always said that if I went to an wedding advertised as alcohol free I would not give them a present. I have not been presented with that situation yet, fortunately. I would however hang around till the end of the reception to explain to them why everyone had left, or just stick around out of morbid curiosity.
Jayse I hope the hangover has worn off by the day after tomorrow.
