How much should we budget for drinks (non alcoholic) at our Wedding? (2pt question)?

Corrina Faro: Just shop where you normally shop for shoes, and get something comfortable in white. If you are wearing a traditional long white wedding dress, chances are no one is going to see your shoes anyway.Very few wedding things actually have to be designed to be wedding things. You can save a lot of money by shopping in normal places. Here are some more money saving wedding tips....Show more

Demetrius Coaster: Honestly, you can do whatever you want. I've been to weddings with more bridesmaids than groomsmen and vice versa, and they all have turned out beautifully so I'm sure yours will too--no matter how many people are in each party.Best wishes!

Amina Motzer: I'm taller than my fiance, so I want a pair of simple flats that are comfortable for the whole day. Anyone have suggestions?

Jude Colbenson: wow...lol...common sense would tell you that you either serve to everyone or no one. you cant give wine to 2 tables and not the rest. thats beyond r! ude. if you dont want any alcohol at your wedding then fine, thats your choice, but you cant say that 2 tables can drink and the rest cant.

Maurice Breuning: Yes, if there is room you can have more then 2 people there. Call ahead and ask. The whole thing takes like 5 minutes. We did it. Then went out for breakfast...Pretty cool.

Hyman Coren: weddings are about the bride and groom.If you don't want alcohol, don't have it.I know there are people who are going to say where is the alcohol but at the end of the day, the wedding is about the couple....Show more

Robt Betker: red white on all tables not that expensive 3,00 per person for soft drinks

Chris Wilczewski: Check with your venue and find out how much they charge for corkage. You CANNOT serve your European guests alcohol, and not everyone. They can drink on their own at another time, should they be so desperate.

Shaquita Wernicki: Ok so Im getting married in june and was wondering if I h! ave to have the same amount of groomsman/bridesmaids? I was th! inkin of doing like 3 bridesmaids and my fiance will have 1 groomsman

Collin Pelfrey: Just get silver or white flats from your favorite company. Tori Burch shoes are very popular in NY; I haven't tried them but everyone seems to wear her stuff. Don't worry about wearing shoes for the whole day. If you've got a long dress, you can wear flip flops at the reception. I did it and I was able to dance all night without worrying about my feet.

Rodolfo Merel: You can have any number of bridesmaids and groomsmen. The numbers do not have to be even. THe most important thing is that you pick people who are supportive of you and happy for your marriage.

Darwin Ecton: I want to wear a pair of lace covered Keds, but my mom is insisting on dressy shoes.....she's buying, so I guess I get dressy shoes. And I don't want anything marketed for weddings because the price will be jacked up 500%!!!

Jana Sakasegawa: can more then just 2 witnesses be in the room? (can f! amily be there say 10 people?) also what happens there?

Victor Macallister: A justice of the peace does not bang a hammer after the ceremony...lol. It's basically a legal exchange of vows, without all the typical ceremonial hoopla, like lighting of unity candles, and prayers ( tho he may still pray). You can read your own vows if you want to personalize it, or you can do the traditional exchange of vows. You'll exchange rings, he'll pronounce you, and wallah! You're married. You can bring family and friends. Just because it's not in a church doesn't mean you have to do it without them. Decorating and all that is a no no though....Show more

Horace Escue: I would just have your bar serve non-alcoholic drinks (soda/pop, water, ginger ale, etc.) and a limited amount of wine and champagne (if you decide to serve alcohol at all). We didn't serve any alcohol, but we still had a bar set up so guests could pick their own beverages. I believe our caterer allowed 2 1/2 d! rinks per guest. The cost was included in our catering package so I do! n't know how much it would have been separately. I know they offer coffee and tea service for $2.95 per person, so I would assume non-alcoholic beverage service wouldn't be much more than $3-4 per person....Show more

Hipolito Rightmire: Serving alcohol to only those 2 tables would be considered rude to the rest of your guests. Just because you and your families don't drink doesn't mean that all of your guests don't.Budget for a reasonable amount and then set the cap for that amount. The reception venue should ask you how you want to handle it after that on that day. My suggestion is to offer wine on your bar for your french guests. Since you say that no one else drinks, they won't be interested in it and you've offered it to your french guests without offending anyone else.Personally, my husband and I had budgeted for $3K for bar tab and ended up extending it to $5K. We ended up spending a little more than $4K on drinks which was a bit more than we had planned fo! r but our guests were happy and that's what mattered most to us.In the end, it doesn't really matter what you decide. Your guests are there to help you celebrate your marriage....not to drink away your money!Good luck with your decision.....and congratulations!...Show more

Ronny Nowzari: You write: was wondering if I have to have the same amount of groomsman/bridesmaids? No, you do not have to have even numbers of attendants. It is perfectly okay to have 3 bridesmaids and 1 groomsman.

Elfreda Grossen: I don't know if they will have what you're looking for but check out http://www.drewshoe.com/. Little known site, pretty cheap, and they're therapeutic so they're made to be comfortable.

Foster Padgette: If they are the only ones who drink why don't you buy them a bottle and say how much you appreciate all the time and effort that it took for them to be a part of your day?

Cyndy Grimes: sure, honestly! only because of the fact they don't drink doesnt! propose you cant nonetheless celebrate. The toast provides all people ! of undertaking to need you nicely and toast on your new marriage. Use sparkling cider, 7-up, or ginger ale, whichever you like extra powerful. all of it seems relating to an identical in a glass.

Carter Dewater: I don't drink, and neither does my husband, or most of our families either. I wouldn't want to spend my money on alcohol for anyone else, regardless if it's part of their culture or not. We didn't serve alcohol at our wedding, and the drinkers in our party didn't say a word to us, or our families. And everyone had a good time too, they didn't need to drink to have fun. I think you either serve it or don't, but to only serve to a select few, for whatever reason, is horribly rude. I'm sure your guests from France will understand that you've chosen to spend your hard earned money elsewhere, you even said they would.And I don't think you have to serve alcohol if you don't want to. You don't drink. If your guests--all or most of whom already know you abstain! --want to drink, they can do it either before or afterwards. If they can't go a few hours without a glass of wine, or their beer, or whatever, then they've got problems....Show more

Barton Morfee: Just because you, your fiance, and your families don't drink doesn't mean that your guests don't. It would be completely rude to only serve your French guests with alcohol. If you are going to have alcohol, make sure that it is available to anyone who wants it, or just go without.

Floyd Labuda: I'm taller than my man too. Since wedding dresses are so long, I'm going to wear white high-top Converse All-Star sneakers. Nobody will see them unless I show them and I've always known I'm going to wear these sneakers to my wedding.

Russell Mckinzie: family can be there if you wish. the judge pretty much just says the "do you take blah blah blah" part then when you both say I do, then says "by the power invested in me by blah blah blah" he bangs the hammer and you are ! married. No massive celebration, just rudimentary basics

Marquett! a Gimm: Either you serve alcohol to everybody or you don't. If you don't your French friends will understand. They can go out for wine before or after the reception. You can serve the non alcoholic wines, they're usually in the wine section in the wine store or grocery store. Also for drinks like soda I had about 140 people at my wedding and I bought Coke, Diet Coke and Sprite. I got them at Cosco 32 per case and I bought 1 case each and it wasn't enough. Also that was the cheapest way to go for soda. Good luck!...Show more

Oswaldo Rayburn: I am probably wearing white flip flops, no one sees your shoes.
