The group are of the Mennonite religion. All of them dry asides one or two which had wine for dinner. I booked a couple adding ot at 2 of them. they danced their butts off.

Man Jon, You must have a different sect of Mennonites where you are from Here they don't drink, don't dance and don't agree with music being played, other than religious music "vocal only"!
 
Ha Ha :sqlaugh::sqlaugh: a "Dry" wedding??? whats that???

Here, in the land of cheese..We have large populations of people with Irish, and German descent.

Most people only go to weddings for the free beer..

So, No booze, No people :sqlaugh::sqlaugh:
 
Just because a group doesn't drink doesn't mean they do not party. I have had several "dry" receptions that were blowouts, and you don't have to worry about dealing with a drunk uncle. Sure some "dry" receptions will be very low key and short but not all of them.

Ditto.
They are tough to do, but I've made them work. (lucky?)

Try this...A dry wedding reception that starts at 11:00AM in a room with lots of windows & sunshine glaring through.

That's tough!
 
I did a dry wedding in San Ramon, California and after dreaming of an early night and a quick YMCA - my dreams were shattered by 300 people rocking out all night long and a punch up in the parking lot to boot....

Most unusual job
 
Don't get predetermined conceptions of a dry wedding, I do lots here in WV and if you play alot of cheese and games you and your crowd will have fun:sqbiggrin:

Bryans head is spinning with all those grammatical mistakes.:sqembarrassed:
 
Dry weddings simply mean you have to work harder. You have to be really creative with your mixes to get the crowd dancing. I find that dry weddings generally require a lot of slow dance tunes. The medleys seem to work well with the ladies. But you definitely will work harder if your goal is to provide an entertaining and memorable event that doesn't end up ending early.

Karaoke, Trivia, and Fad Dances seem to work well in this "DRY" atmosphere.
Name that Tune works really well and generally draws a lot of attention.
 
I've worked a few dry receptions, and they turned out to be great.

To me, a wedding reception isn't about the alcohol. It is about the relationship between the bride and groom and about the two families celebrating that relationship.

I'd love to do MORE dry receptions. You have many more options for involving the guests as opposed to providing "crowd control" at the typical wedding.

But that's just me :)
