[Sotiny]

Your wedding is going to be a big celebration and everyone is going to have a blast!
As the bride and groom of the day, you are also "the host" of THE PARTY!

When you are planning for the party... keep in mind that there is something called "Social Host Liability"
I found couple of links that might give you more idea and tips.

Thank You. I have been trying to convince my soon to be mother in-law that an open bar is great but can lead to liability issues but I did not know where to get the info. Thanks

Good to know that you find this posting helpful.
As mentioned, please check with the professional as this type of issue is very important and I am not a professional in this field.
