It's a yes or no answer and I'm not at all interested in your rhetoric. It's your wedding and your guest list.
Can I answer this one? Actually, I have carried in the past and also consumed moderate amounts of alcohol on occasion while doing so. IMHO, this is a case-by-case situation. Having a beer or two over an hour or so while talking to friends, all the while with a piece in my belt is no different than any other decision regarding alcohol. If you have the self control, presence of mind, etc. its no problem. I have many friends, some carry, and we have NEVER had an incidence of anyone pulling out a piece and acting the fool while even mildly intoxicated. If you wouldn't drive, use power tools, etc. then you have the idea. RT
