Having to choose between children or alcohol at your wedding most would choose “no children."

However, one couple about to get married has decided “no alcohol” and a good amount of their guests aren’t very happy about the decision.

On Reddit's “Am I The A******” thread, one person asked the world if they'd be in the wrong for "having a dry wedding and serving only water for drinks."

The wedding will "be around 100-150 people total" and the couple will be paying for everything, with a little help from one of their grandmothers. The couple felt they needed to make some sacrifices to bring down the costs, so they decided to serve only water as a drink option.

"We have a lot of kids in our family so we decided against making it child-free but we did decide to make it dry," they posted. "Honestly, this doesn't have anything to do with there being kids there but due to the fact that my fiancé and I don't drink."

The post continued, "On top of that, we only really drink water. We rarely, if ever, drink soda so most of the time it's only water with the occasional juice and milk. We don't even drink coffee."

Their family and friends were upset after finding out about the drink menu and pressed for a bar, but apparently, the couple didn't want to pay for a bartender.

The wedding party also suggested adding soda to the menu saying the kids at the wedding "will be upset."

Reddit felt the couple was in the wrong, with some calling them bad hosts. Others suggested the couple can save more money by trimming down the guest list.

I’ve been to a wedding without alcohol, and although it’s not as much fun without it, you have to respect the decision of the bride and groom. It’s their wedding, and if they want to have it without music or a cake or flowers or even food then it’s their choice. However, they’re going to have to be prepared for their wedding to be talked about for years to come, and not in a good way.

New Jersey’s Anthony Volpe Called Up By The New York Yankees

Anthony Volpe has officially been called up by the New York Yankees. The baseball player was informed of the team's decision on Sunday afternoon that he will be a part of the Opening Day roster.

The New Jersey native was originally assigned to the Double-A Somerset Patriots in April of 2022 as the team's number-one prospect. Now, Volpe will show his "Pinstripe Pride" live from Yankee Stadium in the Bronx.

Yankees' manager Aaron Boone pulled quite the prank on Volpe in his office today before breaking the news to one of Major League Baseball's newest players. You can watch the video below to see Volpe's live reaction.

All eyes were on Volpe in recent weeks during Big League Camp. His impressive stats and hard work paid off because he's now the Yankees' Opening Day shortstop, according to mlb.com

The 21-year-old entered spring training this year as the No. 5 overall prospect in Major League Baseball. As reported by mlb.com, the last player this young to start a season opener for the New York Yankees was Derek Jeter in 1996. 

The New York Yankees will play the San Francisco Giants on Opening Day (Thursday, March 30) at 1:05 pm.

Welcome To The Bronx!

A message from the Somerset Patriots:

Congratulations!
