My Yankee Italian heathen brother (who everybody was convinced MUST be in the mafia) married a native Southern Belle from North Carolina in North Carolina. They faced similar issues. They had an outdoor wedding with a pastor. The reception was at a country club and there was no alcohol until after dinner. Those who objected to alcohol and dancing were able to enjoy the dinner and left when the D.J. started playing his music. They had a champagne fountain, wine, and beer, no hard liquor. I think it worked out fine for all of us.
My brother couldn't have NOT had wine at his wedding because my Italian grandfather made us each a vat of wine for our wedding day when we were born. We had to have our nonno's wine at our weddings.
