dry wedding

Post by kowalski »

Possibly my greatest drinking challenge yet: drink my way through a dry wedding due to take place in 3 weeks time.

Am thinking 2 hip flasks. However, I'll have to plan the purchase (probably online somewhere) of some stronger than average booze. I very rarely see anything over 40% abv in shops. and given the limited capacity (~500ml) of my flasks (and the practicalities of carrying them), the stronger the better. I probably won't have a chance to refill unless I can come up with a devious plan (unlikely).

I could probably mix the stuff, so it doesn't need to be the greatest tasting booze - potency is what will count...

Everclear. Test it before you drink, to see how much, if any, you need to dilute it to get it down without choking. 190 proof has it's uses....

Oh, it will need diluting. It's like paint thinner, but if potency is what you're looking for then that's the ticket. Other options would be 151 or the Sailor. Keep a fifth outside of the venue hidden behind the bushes and replenish when the time arises. Try not to fall in said bushes as the day wears on though. Good luck.

Just bring a bottle with you in the car, periodically realize you "forgot" something in the car, and go back to refill. Also, I _strongly_ recommend filling a flask with everclear; not for personal consumption, but for a sneaky spiking of the punch. Force the fuckers to allow fun at the wedding.

Never waste booze on unsuspecting people. That's simply a waste. The owner of the booze is obligated to satisfy his inner monkey first and foremost. Fuck the rest of the jungle.

12 of beer and a mickey of whisky in your trunk, trust me there wil be lots of others going out to the parking lot for "smokes". That should hold you when your flask runs out.

What the fuck is a dry wedding?

I'm offended enough if I get invited to a wedding with any less than an open bar that doesn't allow tipping. How else can I be expected to sit through that bullshit?

Buy a five liter box of wine. Take out the bladder and duct tape it around your stomach. Connect a plastic tube to its spout and hide the other end under your collar. Classy drink for a classy occasion.

I'd go with three flasks of WT101, or maybe even the Rare breed. Strong, and you don't need a mixer.

and as a rule, I do not attend dry weddings. I remember when my best friend was planning her wedding, she was planning a dry wedding, i told her I would not be attending because she should know better. That shit went from a dry wedding to an open bar, it was mediocre though, a lot of vodka, very little whiskey, BUT, it was open, and fun was had.

This just further proves my theory that a wedding is nothing less than a day devoted to the bride torturing everyone she and her groom know. Some just go further than others.

Isn't the saying that weddings are the one that the bride's mother wanted.

I try not to go to weddings anymore. Luckily, all the Southern Baptists and Southeast Chrisitians that my family knows got married when I was young. I even missed my cousins wedding because it was before noon. Whiskey tango foxtrot?
