At many modern American weddings, guests expect an open bar where they can toss back as many alcoholic drinks as they desire.

However, after working hundreds of weddings as a hired bridesmaid for strangers, Jen Glantz is not completely sold on them.

She has seen couples go into debt because they didn't account for their open-bar costs, and others hysterical during the reception because a guest's drunken antics ruined their day.

Although the idea of having guests pay for their own drinks can feel taboo, she thinks cash bars can make a wedding great — especially if couples do them well.
