Here comes the booze! All ready to schmooze! In this edition of Bar Therapy, Dr Xander Gerrymander and Dr K talk about how drinking enters into the weddings. The two of them recently got married, and they discuss the challenges of how to deal with such a monumental day when alcohol is involved. It sometimes involves really thinking on who to invite and who to not invite. Which friends and family can and cannot handle their liquor, what inappropriate things might come up in a diverse crowd, and what boundaries might need to be set forth and how to set them in order to avoid conflicts.

They also delve into the mindset of what might be going through certain attendees' heads when they see their friends or family so happy and how they potentially might perceive as their own personal life failures. They also want you to know, for the record, love comes when you find it, and there is no deadline. Buck up. Never say die. We’ll get along.
