If one cannot afford to ply your guests with unlimited alcohol, then it is far preferable simply to close the bar early or serve only beer and wine. Or only wine, cheap wine, that no one will want more than one glass of, than to have the guests pay for the bar. What's next--dinner with a chicken breast, but an optional upgrade to steak for $8?
Oh the humanity.

You should have open bar. If you cannot afford open bar the whole time, then a modified open bar for several hours is acceptable. [say, during the cocktail hour] Otherwise, limit the amount of people you invite.....But a pure cash bar is tack-ola schmola. I'm not a huge fan of the wedding buffet. I am sure there are lovely wedding buffets but I prefer personally a sit down dinner.......
Pursuant to the books recently read, I forgot to mention the book Present Value by Sabin Willett a partner at Bingham Mc Cutcheon. Very good book with a twist. It's all about his journey through an insider trader scandal and how it rocks his world and his wife's who is a big partner at one of the law firms in Boston. It's a social satire, and I thought it was pretty entertaining......
