Right? One meal. People act like it's asking them to cut off a limb if you suggest skipping meat one time.
When we were planning our wedding, my mom said to me that if we didn't serve meat at our reception, "people will leave disappointed." Seriously? SERIOUSLY?? A) it's our money B) actually dad gave us $5k for it so stfu C) I don't eat meat, and they can get a fucking hamburger at McD's afterward if they're that put out. D) It won't kill them to skip meat one time E) besides the thing everybody wants at a wedding is CAKE anyway.
(Our cake was really good. Fancy bakery in Gaithersburg iirc. Had directions for freezing and thawing the top tier that actually worked to give us an edible anniversary cake.)
