My fiance and I are getting married in September. Our wedding has become very expensive in all the planning. It will be about 175 guests. We have decided to offer Beer and wine at the bar at our wedding. BUT for the toast the head table and the parents table will receive champagne for the toasts. Our guests will toast with whatever drinks they have at their table. Do you think this is tacky? The expense on the alcohol is high and the reception facility wont allow us to bring in our own because its a full service facility.

Re: [newlife32] Alcohol Issue for Toasts
[In reply to]
It would not be polite to offer some guests champagne and not others. It's an all or none. Think about how you would feel if a guest at an event where some guests were being served a sit down meal of filet mignon and you were asked to get up and serve yourself from the buffet of chicken and cold cuts.
However, you could choose some very inexpensive champagne or select a non-alcoholic version which would be less expensive. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".
