So, how many plastic cups do i order?

mkibs, on September 21, 2019 at 8:27 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 8

My caterer isn't supplying any kind of cups for water, soda, or alcoholic beverages. Renting glassware is too much of a hassle for us. I plan on buying 12oz cups for water, soda, and beer. I plan on buying 9 oz. cups for wine. How many of each do I need to buy? Is there a specific per person rule? We plan on having 150 people attend.


Or brides that have done plastic cups, is there a cup perfect for all drinks?

    Depends on what theme your doing, I would suggest using mason jar drinking glasses. It's a multi use, they can use them as there drinking glass and your guest wedding favors

    Also it reduces waste and it's environmentally safe

    I would have enough for 2 drinks for each guest the first hour and one drink per guest for each hour afterwards.

    I had to get my own cups for my cocktail hour that I was expecting around 150 guests. I had about 200 cups or more. Definitely didn't use that many at all.

    I’ll let you know once I find them.

    We used some of them for the Rehearsal Dinner.
    too.
