An early morning wedding can serve iced tea, coffee, punch, etc. A nighttime wedding can serve alcohol, punch, or specialty coffees.
If you choose to have a bar at your wedding, I encourage you to consider an open bar. There are enough options available that alcohol really is unnecessary. If you choose to provide it — you should provide it. Variations on the alcohol provision include providing everyone with champagne to toast, setting out kegs of self-serve beer, and hiring a bartender and supplying the mixed drinks that your guests may desire. This last option can vary widely in cost depending on your alcohol choice and location of the reception. If you are hiring a caterer they may ask you to pay by the drink. If you hire your own bartender, you may have to buy the alcohol outright regardless of your use.
You can choose to have a wedding without alcohol — and without depriving your guests. I recently read an idea that fascinated me. You can hire a pro to serve different coffees. This could include hot cocoa for the younger drinkers and non-coffee drinkers.
