How much beer??

Ok so I'm having a hard time trying to figure out how much beer to order, we are having a full bar but, we are only paying for the wine and beer. Most of the people coming are really only going to drink the beer though. With that being said our guest list is at 415, although we are only expecting roughly 350 or so due to the wedding being 3 hours away for everyone on my side. I have no idea how to figure how much beer to order. My best guess is that out of those people 250-275 are drinking age. Any ideas? Please help me 😊

    There's online alcohol calculators and with that many people I'm going to assume there will be bartenders but they would be able to advise you as well.

    Always plan for 100% attendance. Also, most venue require a licensed bartender. This is essential in ensuring yours guests’ safety, so they don’t overindulge.


    A quick google searches gives a few websites to figure this out:

    Your bartender should be able to give you a recommendation.

    I just used the first link posted to estimate for my rehearsal dinner and wow that was easy and informative. You just estimate beer vs liquor vs wine and it tells you how much and estimate of cost. Thanks for sharing that link!
