Hi Everyone,
Was wondering how everyone saved on drinks because this is looking like a nightmare for us. We’re having our venue at a hotel which doesn’t allow us to bring our own alcohol and we have to buy everything from them. The cost is insane (ex/ one 1.5oz shot is $25.62)
We’ll probably have around 150-180 guests with the majority (85-90%) of them being young people who drink a ton. For example, the last wedding we went to with this group, they drank around 14 drinks each even when the open bar was only open during cocktail hour and after 10pm - closed inbetween
Here is my cost breakdown so farpen bar for 1 hour cocktail hour (limited to signature cocktail, beer, cider and wine only, no shots) - cap it at $50003 glasses of wine per person at dinner - $68003 drink tickets per person to use on signature cocktails, beer, cider or wine throughout the night - $68001 round of shots at the end of the night - $4600
Total so far = $23,200
I feel so defeated because even though we’re spending $20k+ it still sounds like a super sober night and people won’t want to come to the dance floor at the end of it
