We asked one of our BYOB Bartenders, David Hackler of Minnesota Mobile Pour, what to buy for your guests at your Loft at Studio J BYOB event (or any event for that matter!)
For every 100 guests, here is his recommendation of what is consumed on average:
Red Wine: 18 bottles, White Wine: 12 bottles, Champagne: 20 bottles.
Beer: 1 keg plus 24 cans on reserve, or 120 bottles
Vodka: 4 bottles, Rum: 4 bottles, Whiskey: 2-3 bottles, Scotch: 1 bottle
Planners estimate one drink per person per hour. (A bottle of wine or Champagne contains four drinks; a liter of spirits, 22.)
For each bottle of spirits, you need three containers of mixers—club soda, pop, tonic, juice, and so on. Cocktail parties might prompt guests to order martinis, and multi-course sit-downs will necessitate plenty of wine. Signature drinks add another variable but this is a start! Also remember to bring your own lemons, limes, and/or oranges for your BYOB event. You are the best judge of your wedding party so if they drink more beer than wine then adjust accordingly!
