How Much Liquor At Your Wedding Reception?
1 | 2 | 3
Whether you're having a few guests over for a quiet dinner, or busily finalizing plans for a reception, there are always many questions with respect to the beverage alcohol you plan to serve, and the responsibilities associated with being a host.

Estimating Needs for a Larger Social Function

Make your reception memorable.
Follow three steps when estimating your needs:

    1. Calculate how many people will be drinking at the event.
    2. Multiply this number by four. This tells you the maximum number of standard drinks you need.
    3. Translate the number of standard drinks into cases of spirits and bottles of wine.

100 "standard drinks" = approximately:
Beer: 100 12-oz. bottles
or
Spirits: 6 750 mL bottles
or
Wine: 20 750mL bottles


Suppose you expect 200 people to be drinking at your event. The recommended number of drinks you need is 800 (4 x 200). Let's further suppose that you expect about half of the people will drink beer and the rest will be divided between spirits and wine. The 800 "standard drinks" required would be divided as follows: 400 bottles of beer (4 x 100), plus 12 bottles of spirits (2 x 6), plus 40 bottles of wine (2 x 20).

The prices and quantities shown on this page are only estimates. Use this information accordingly. Actual prices and amounts may be higher or lower based on the products you select and the accuracy of your estimated percentages per category.
