News 24 shared the story of a woman who had to cancel one of her friends from her wedding after he took offence to her decision to have a dry reception.

Both the bride and groom do not drink. So, they thought there was no point wasting money on alcohol for others or even having a cash bar and dealing with the sloppy mess that comes with drunk people.

This decision had one of the bride’s friends calling her to ask if she was joking. After a lengthy conversation, the woman eventually told her friend that if he couldn’t have fun without alcohol, he should probably consider seeking professional help… and that did not go down well.

Feeling conflicted by what had happened, the woman took to Reddit to ask if what she had done and said was too much. Most felt she was well in her right.

“I don’t understand the number of people who can’t fathom a wedding without alcohol. (I do drink occasionally, but if I went the rest of my life without it wouldn’t bother me.) Also, I have been to plenty of Muslim weddings that are obviously alcohol free and loads of fun too.”

“Your wedding, your rules. I also know how expensive it is at many venues to have a bar. And, buddy, I DRINK! I have attended dry weddings. I survived. Congratulations and have a blast at YOUR wedding.”

@cisclooney said:

“Seriously, why go to a wedding to get "hammered" when you can always do that in a bar/club. Go have fun without alcohol. You will notice people who likes you sober.”

“Your wedding, your decision.”

“It looks the same on the surface, but it isn't; until it turns into an alcohol problem and suddenly you're in rehab and/or a psych unit.

“But, my point is that being unable to handle a medium to large event without a drink is either an alcohol problem or an anxiety problem. Still not okay to kick off over, though. I'd have suffered through and then made an early exit.”
