There are various reasons why people look forward toweddings.
There are also those who simply want to get loose, escape from their daily routines, and relax.
Redditor Radiant_List_9993was hoping to do just that.
However, she became skeptical when she found out there would beno alcoholat the celebration.
Alcohol just doesnt hold the same significance for a growing number of our wedding clients, Taylorexplains.
Dry weddings allow couples to have a unique and meaningful celebration without all the risks that come with alcohol.
Not to mention the amount of money they save by excluding alcohol from their wedding menu.
The high-quality non-alcoholic alternatives that the retail and hospitality industries now have to offer also contribute to this trend.
Many of these drinks use sustainably sourced botanicals to create a unique drink that doesnt need to mimic alcohol.
It stands alone as an elegant toast or reception drink, Taylor says.
A big part of it is how the beverages are presented.
Such a wow factor makes them simply forget about the lack of spirit inside, she adds.
The best way to do this is to include the no-alcohol policy in the invitation.
Goldberg concluded that Radiant_List_9993 wasnt wrong for leaving as she had certain expectations about the wedding.
So she decided to make the most of her trip when those werent met.
Better communication beforehand, especially knowing her friends preferences, could have helped avoid these misunderstandings, she said.
