Charming Vs. Ghetto

A conversation I had with my friend Jenny, a real-life bartender, about serving beer and soda at our wedding.

Me: Should bartenders pour bottles into glasses or is it okay to just hand people the bottles?

Jenny: Just give people the bottles. You weren’t under the impression your friends were classy people were you?

Me: We want semi-classy!

Jenny: With the right set up, even grabbing drinks from a cooler can be classy. It could be really cute if you had huge tins filled with ice, flowers and bottles of beverages.

Me: Yeah, maybe. But there is a thin line between charming and ghetto.

Jenny: Charming is just ghetto dressed up to go out.

Me: Hahaha, there is a blog post in here somewhere I’m sure.
