More than you think! This is one of our most commonly asked questions in our dms… Typically we estimate 1.5 to 2 drinks per person, per hour. Drinks can be anything from a glass of wine, a pint of beer, a handcrafted cocktail or a shot!
This may seem like a lot for the average person but for us bartenders, this almost seems too little!
Now you’re probably thinking for a 4 hours event that close to 7 drinks is crazy! Well when you break it down…
1 glass of champagne or cocktail as a welcome drink
2 cocktails
3 shots of your favourite liquor
1 glass of wine
Keep in mind, your guests are mixing and mingling, most likely even dancing away. Drinks can get spilled, some drinks only get half finished and some forgotten on tables.
Then there’s always that friend or family member who drinks enough for all!
It’s always better to be safe than sorry though! 🥂
