Should we have a cash bar?

Cash Bars

Cash bars are not only controversial, they're also just plain tacky. Inviting people to your wedding and then asking them to pay for their drinks is not a nice thing to do. If you can't afford an open bar, have a limited selection of alcohol instead. If you can't afford that, then consider nixing the alcohol altogether.

I do not agree at all. Many young couples cannot afford to have an open bar, but know that people seem to be more relaxed (and have more fun) after a few drinks. At my friend's wedding, they sent out two complimentary drink tickets with each invitation, and after you used your tickets, it was a cash bar. No one seemed to mind, and the drinks were not that expensive.
