Can't imagine a wedding without a bar... told all my friends... open bars.. or save the invite.

But apparently it gets expensive.

Open bars are pretty expensive. But I mean it all depends on what type of liquor you get for the bar itself. More than not, the ones I've bartended have just been various beers and wine. But a few of the pull out the stops and get lots of bottles of hard liquor, but that's a lot rarer.

The one thing I've noticed, is that you never want to do a pay bar at a wedding. Ever. Not even those dorky drink coupons. The weddings I've done that have open bars, I've noticed something - everyone, everyone is happy. Clearly because A) It's a wedding and B) They're not spending money for the booze. As soon as you make people spend their own money some people get grumpy because they realize later in the night they dont have enough money for a drink, yet want one - so they take it out on the bartender. Not fun. (That's a lie, it's semi entertaining.)
