Heading to a wedding tomorrow. Don't know about you guys but I love weddings. Not that ceremony bull . But the reception!! Specifically, the open bar. If aint open bar, I aint goin.

weddings are fun. at my age (mid to late 20s) they just start springing up like weeds everywhere.
anyway last time i went to a wedding that was open bar i was trying to bring the heat and turn up the volume by doublefisting but kids are soft and wanted to pump the brakes and take it easy.
actually now that i think about it i have a new appreciation for those guys in wedding crashers. would love to actually just do that and get people smashed

Everyone's getting married. Such a cliche.

I've been to some great weddings. I went to one wedding a couple of years back (celeb wedding) which lasted 4 days on super high end resort and everything was covered apart from getting there. Round the clock open bar, anything brought to you within 15 mins of calling concierge and anything went. Very cool bunch of people and I as told that the bill was $1m+ but it was all covered by the magazine that had the photo rights.
Some other friends got Married last year and their Dad is on the top 1000 rich list so he dropped a little over $5m on the wedding. Never seen anything like it.
Wolfgang puck was serviing steak. Nobu (Matsuhisa, himself) was serving the Sushi. Like they put it on your plate. The bride and groom met to a colby collat tune, so Dad surprised them by getting her to perform that song as the first dance.
Dad surprised them further by building a secret club behind the main reception room - as soon as they ceremony finished, a fabric wall dropped to reveal a full on club that would make a vegas club look like your local dive bar, and their favoiratue DJ was booked to play in to the small hours.

We had an open bar and one of my buddies got cut off at 10:30. Another guy was ordering doubles. Like, bro, the price isn't going up. Also, our guests pounded through ALL of the wine before dessert was served.
Our wedding planner gave us a very modest estimate of what our bar tab would cost, saying "I've done lots of weddings with heavy drinkers and never seen a tab greater than x amount." We laughed to ourselves and planned for a much larger tab - it ended up being nearly double what the wedding planner estimated.
Our wedding was a lot of fun. Lots of "Best wedding I've ever been to!" from our guests. A few people called in with the open bar flu at my husband's workplace the following week, lol.

I video a number of weddings and the people make all the difference. You need the right mix. On the one hand uptight ppl are no fun but neither are obnoxious drunkerds if that's a word.
Sometimes it's special and other times it's just the bride and groom spending a lot of money to impress their friends and family.
It often is a cliche series of cheese rituals.

We planned ours knowing that weddings mostly suck, and are an inconvenience. I suppose the good thing about waiting forever to do it is, it's pretty easy to include only the things and people that are actually important.

I went to a wedding once. After I left, I found that I was married.
