Classy. Oh dear Lord, no it's not.
Recently, I did a wedding ceremony gig at my church (gonna keep it on the DL, cuz I certainly don't wanna name names and piss heads off). The groomsmen decided to take the edge off the groom's most important day of his life by imbibing alcohol in front of the church. A lot. The way the organist describe it to me made it sound like the reception was outside before the service started. She was FURIOUS!!
I can understand taking a swig (that's 1 swig) of whatever your poison before the service starts to get you loose for the big day. But hide the flasks and do what you have to do before it's your moment. Preparation is key to a great day . . . involving lots of drinking . . .
Brides, Grooms, Moms and Dads, this isn't cool; don't let anyone pre-game hardcore in front of a house of God. It's incredibly rude. Regardless of your religious or moral perspective, show some respect for those who believe, even if you don't share the same belief.
I'm not one to talk about religion or politics, so this'll be my only rant about this topic.
