‘We didn’t serve any booze at our wedding - if any guests complained they wouldn’t be true friends’

ok.co.uk:

Wine and weddings - they go together like love and marriage. Whether it’s a fizzy toast to the bride and groom, a tipple with the meal or raising a glass as guests dance the night away, alcohol has always been a key part for any nuptials.

Recently though there has been a rise in people choosing to go alcohol-free, with more and more couples opting out of serving booze on their big day.

Here, personal trainer Aimee Pearce, 39, from Sheffield, who has been alcohol-free since 2020, talks us through her alcohol-free journey and why she had a booze-free wedding day. "Stopping drinking on New Year's Day three years ago meant that when it came to planning my wedding to my husband Peter, a fizz-free wedding was a given.

We didn't even discuss having alcohol when we got hitched because by then we'd not had a drink since before COVID. None of our guests got annoyed when we told them to bring a bottle if they wanted - they are all supportive of us and accepted our decision.
