My venue doesn't provide alcohol or the bartender. We have everything situated but we are trying to determine how much alcohol we need to buy. I found a calculator online but it all seems like too much.
For 300 guests (according to the calculator), here's what we need:
7 kegs of beer
66 bottles (750 mL) of liquor
900 bottles (12 oz) of water
170 bottles (1 L) of soda
But since more than half of our guests are underage, I looked into 125 guests.
4 kegs of beer
33 bottles (750 mL) of liquor
450 bottles (12 oz) of water
85 bottles (1 L) of soda
Does this seem like a lot of things to buy or is this normal?
