i know everyone is saying that God will forgive you, lol thats not the point

some guests may abstain from meat and you want them to enjoy the ENTIRE reception, that is why i suggested getting the dispensation



Exactly, I do not cheat during Lent either which is why our wedding is the first Friday after Easter and not earlier in the month.

If I were a guest I would really appreciate the fact that the bride and group went through the 'trouble' of getting a dispensation. Of course, if the bride and groom were not Catholic then I would take it upon myself to just not eat meat. There are plenty of choices at a weeding that do not involve meat.
I have several family members who would not eat meat regardless of the dispensation b/c they would still feel guilty.
