I'm in the process of securing our alcohol order for our wedding. My FH and I are going through Total Wine for our wedding b/c we are able to return any unopened and unchilled bottles after the wedding. Here is my situation; the price is not an issue, as we have budgeted more than enough for our bar. We currently have an extensive alcohol list with different brands of liquor - we already have our beer and have purchased our wine so we only have liquor and mixers left, along with the non-alcoholic beverages we are having but those we will get at Costco. We plan on doing a full open bar for our guests b/c we do not want them to have to pay for anything. To make it easier on our bartender I was thinking about the possibility of creating a menu for the bar to put on our tables, and of course to post at the bar for drink suggestions for our guests. If our guests want a combination or another drink that is not listed on the menu, they can still order it, I just wanted to make sure that our guests know what we have at the bar.
Do you think it's a good idea to create a menu, or should I just make a list of the liquor, beer, wine and other non-alcoholic beverages to post at the bar and/or on the tables? Or, should I do nothing at all?
Any and all suggestions would be appreciated. I'm meeting with our bartender tomorrow so I wanted to make sure I have a menu ready for her just in case I go that route.
Thanks!
