I have a bit of a dilema. We are paying for lunch at the GFC (or Konas Cafe depending on what 'experience' I have wih GFC) and dinner at Le Cellier for our wedding. Tim and I don't drink alcohol but everyone else going does and we would like to have drinks for people with the meals.
The problem we have is with one person - my SIL. She drinks like a bl**dy fish at the best of times, but particularly when she is stressed at being in a group. We have absolutely no objection with paying for wine with the meals, but how can we tell her to a) not get drunk and embarrass everyone and b) watch the budget as we're paying!
What would you recommend? Saying people can order wine by the glass or having a few bottles on the table?
I really don't want to upset her or my brother but, on the other hand, I don't want her drunk and paying for the privilege of hearing her upset people when her lips start flapping.
Help!
