Hey Tim, I understand totally. I was raised in a Protestant home and the first wedding reception I went to that included a Best Man Toast, I was the Best Man.

It was a wedding in Detroit. The bride had been raised in a Catholic home and although she did not drink and there was no alcohol at the reception, the family all expected at least a toast (even if it was with apple cider).

My toast stunk.

Sadly, none of my other buddies in attendance asked me to be a best man when they got married so I never got a second chance. In fact, only one of these "friends" even invited me to his wedding, all the others got married without the ol turtle in attendance.

I've been to several Catholic weddings and receptions since then, most of them around Chicago, and an open bar with the bride's family footing the bill for at least one keg is pretty normal.
