Common Questions

How much alcohol do I need for 100 guests?
For a 4-hour wedding reception with 100 guests, the standard rule is 400 drinks total. This usually breaks down to 40% Beer, 30% Wine, and 30% Spirits.

What is the 50/50 Rule?
Most caterers estimate that 50% of guests will drink wine/beer and 50% will drink mixed cocktails. Use our "Balanced" setting to calculate this accurately.

How much ice do I need?
The golden rule for parties is 1 lb (0.5kg) of ice per guest. This covers ice for drinks and ice for keeping bottles cold in coolers.
