Yep - it's the exact same reason alcohol isn't allowed in the ceremony if you marry at a hotel or other venue with a bar. Even the witnesses are expected to be sober enough to bear witness.

Although I always thought it was a waste of time. The drink in your hand isn't the one that's affecting your judgement, it's the one that was in your hand 30mins ago.
