I'mma be honest, I've used disposable cameras, but not in a long time. I'd appreciate the reminder if I were handed one. Something about winding after (or before?) each photo?
For most of them, it doesn't matter. When the film is wound on, it would hit a ratchet stop to prevent you winding it beyond the next film cell anyway - which would only be released when the shutter button was operated, so you'd intuitively feel whether the film had been already wound forward or not.
This thread reminds me of inexpensive package holidays as a child. It's brilliant.
When I was a kid my parents used to buy loads of those disposable cameras whenever we went on holiday to keep me and my sister quiet. It's hard to believe that we found it diverting.
Today's kids would not be happy with anything less than an iPad.

Brief moment in history...
I remember reading this tip in a magazine. Instead of having a professional photographer at a wedding, put a disposable camera at every table.
That should be a tip for your reception, not the wedding itself.
These days it's reasonably common to replace the disposable cameras with a QR code or link to where people can upload photos they took on their phone.
