Alcohol often isn't permitted on church grounds, especially in the Bible belt, so if your reception is in the fellowship hall then it's out of the question. But even off-site receptions for those in Christian culture serve no alcohol. The devout avoid being photographed while holding tea or cider lest it be mistaken for an adult beverage.
Many who now consider themselves Reformed were raised evangelical and for them drinking is newly permissible. At these weddings there is sure to be a showdown. The evangelical parents of the bride and groom might say they may have wine at the reception if they pay for it themselves, but this holds an unspoken message that there will be a relational price to pay if they defame their Christian reputation by serving wine.

Oh Stephy- I was reading Clients From Hell and when I saw this post, I immediately thought of you: http://clientsfromhell.net/post/13928332985/i-had-a-project-designing-wedding-invitations-for One paragraph long, but it has everything- dry weddings, super religious, same sex make out sessions... :-)
I personally don't see much of a problem with having some alcohol at weddings. Still, traditions hold strong, so it's better to be on the safe side for the festivities.
I enjoyed reading it. I need to read more on this topic...I admiring time and effort you put in your blog, because it is obviously one great place where I can find lot of useful info..
We had a dry wedding reception, the reason being is that older, important family members told us they wouldn't come if we didn't. Seeing as my husband and I are neither for or against drinking we didn't care. It also kept the bill down.
It seems great. I am just in love with such interesting posts. I also want a unique funky wedding. We will be having indoor ceremony at some domestic Chicago event venues so have been seeking suggestions for the theme. Could anyone help regarding it?
