In a wedding with 200 guests, the amount of alcoholic beverages required depends on several factors, including the length of the event, guest preferences, and also the alcoholic beverages being served. Usually, you could prepare for each guest to have around 1 to 1.5 alcoholic beverages every hour. As an example, if you’re planning a 4-hour wedding reception & anticipate each and every guest enjoying 2 alcoholic beverages each hour, you’d require approximately 800 to 1,200 drinks altogether. This could indicate 10 to 15 cases of wine beverage (12 bottles per case), 5-7 cases of beer (24 bottles or cans a case), & 10 to 15 bottles of spirits (750ml per bottle). However, it is important to consider your particular event specifics and check with our local agent who can offer a better estimation depending on local choices, venue rules, along with other factors unique for your location.
