Q: What about drinking (alcohol)?

Answer

A: Great question! We will not have an open bar at either the reception or the celebration. Alcohol is not allowed in church! For the evening celebration guests are allowed to bring their own drinks. Limited drinks will be provided but not in the form of an open bar. This philosophy comes from the biblical call to not pursue drunkenness (Eph. 5:18).
