Beverage Amount?

Jennifer, on October 19, 2022 at 3:54 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 8
We had 85 guests (with maybe 10 who don’t drink or are not of drinking age/pregnant/breast feeding). Our final folio came from the catering came back as 160 cocktails and 15x 1.5L bottles of wine (120 standard glasses). Does this seem a little excessive or do we just have alcoholic friends? Haha

    That comes out to roughly 1 drink per person per hour, so I would say that’s actually lower than I’d anticipate for an open bar wedding reception.

    That amount is not much. Some people may have been less involved in the other activities of the wedding and drunk a bit more than one an hour. I might have expected a little more than 20 bottles -- 3 glasses of wine for many. So people may have been better occupied by the general activities.

    Yup! I just did the math and that’s actually a little less than 1 Drink an hour so it’s all good. My husband just was a little bit aback with the amount

    The wedding day was amazing! Smiley smile The days leading up to it were a bit 🥴 The day before (our welcome party) was also fun but it was exhausting! We’re just glad to be home haha. Need to recharge from all the socializing. The photographer took great pics tho! We got sneak peeks.

    Hi it's not essessive because we have friends that are drinkers like us lol lol and we had a few that was not of age to drink. But we had other drinks a few of the men left the reception and came back with more alcohol drinks we had a good time and was able to have more that had came to our home so we still have alot more to drink lol lol. So I'm saying have fun honey .
