Reid is a Mormon, I think they have different dating rules.

Come on. Mormons aren't THAT different? However, I do have one question that has been nagging at me about Mormons and I just HAVE to have an answer so please don't get pissed off at me if you are a Mormon. Okay, here goes...What do Mormons drink at wedding receptions? I'm not kidding. You have to have at least champagne at wedding receptions. I was recently at a wedding and we had an open bar for everything which was much appreciated. Somehow a wedding without booze just seems empty...and strange.

Also do non-Mormons get invited to Mormon weddings and what is their reaction when they find out no liquor at the reception? Okay, they must figure out there wouldn't be any but I would think the actuality of a boozeless wedding when it happens would be quite a surprise to them.

A big part of the wedding reception experience is heavy drinking and acting wild. I did my part at the wedding I recently attended...much to my wife's disgust.

On come on, Mormons are pretty different and NO I am not a Mormon, How big a wedding can you have when you are marrying a 12 year old, invite everybody in the 6th grade? Now all the Mormons will be jumping on me.

As far as booze is concerned you can have my share, I think I am allergic to it.

Didn’t you mean “Reid is a Moron”?

We drink lots of fruit punch and the like. At our wedding, we had the Sprite and sherbet combo. No booze at our receptions. Everyone actually gets to remember the event, and you don’t have to worry about obnoxious, sauced Uncle Don getting creepy with the bridesmaids.

Frankly, I’ve never understood the logic of heavy drinking and wild behavior at a wedding, even before I became a Mormon. How does it go? “Hey! This couple is beginning their life together and making a commitment before God and their families. Let’s get all guano-faced and act like frat dinks on Spring Break!”

When us dry Baptists get married...

...we have fruit punch.

I was an adult before I ever went to a champagne wedding.
