Same here, when people have their stories about wild weddings I just have nothing because all our family weddings were the most sedate affairs.

I grew up in Wisconsin where I attended multiple church events that had a beer trailer. I can't wait to read your book.

I somehow only went to one religiously dry wedding. My other dry wedding experience was in one of Alabama's last dry counties during the Iron Bowl. My wife's cousins were sneaking shots of Wild Turkey to folks out of their truck and the step-father of the bride almost got thrown into the woods.

Accurate. Even at my own wedding, I was questioning if we should have been serving beer and wine. Felt wrong.

There’s a couple of books about a guy who could have solved that problem for you.

Nothing beats the dry wedding I went to at 11 AM on a Saturday where the couple did a speed run of their reception because they Waited Until Marriage. Group I was with wasn't raised protestant, I had to explain to them why it felt so rushed.

Our wedding was dry because otherwise her parents wouldn’t have paid for it. But we absolutely encouraged people to BYOB.

This is the first time I'm hearing of the concept of dry weddings, and I don't think I went to a wedding before the age of 26

This sounds like a Baptist Thing, but we were more hillsong than fundie. Here's how these dry weddings were more broadly an Evangelical Thing: Tons of my childhood friends got married before 21, including Emily and me. If the newlyweds can't legally drink anyway, having booze is even less likely
