Well, I've been to two weddings in the past three weeks and the first one had an open bar for about 2 hours, and then they switched to cash after the stuff they had pre-paid for ran out (f'ers didn't tell anyone that was how it was going to work, not that they were obligated to, but if I had known, I woulda stocked up for the night). The second one had a pure cash bar. Didn't even get a f'ing glass of sham-pain. Assholes.
I'm going to start asking around, discretely, ahead of time for info on whether there's going to be a cash bar or open bar and then I'm going to purchase gifts accordingly.

I've been to a wedding reception where the family/couple truly could not afford to have an open bar. Completely understandable, and I knew the situation in advance. I purchased the same $$$ of gift that I normally purchase.
OTOH, I've been a wedding reception where only beer and wine were free. You had to pay for liquor. Watching the bride's parents drive from the hotel in their 745 BMW on Sunday morning made me want to demand that they reimburse me for the vodka I drank the night before.
