Planning a Wedding or Event?

Need help with what and how much to buy?

We at GCP would be happy to help with figuring out the appropriate wine, liquor and beer products you need for your event.

But we can assist with offering our expertise and applying our formulaic process we've developed over our many years in the business.

Take half your guests (50) multiply by the number of hours of your event (7) = the number of drinks you will need

Formula:

50 x 7 = 350 drinks for 100 guests in 7 hours

Each 750mL bottle of wine has 5 servings so –
350/5 = 70 bottles of wine for 100 people for 7 hours

Take all of your guests divided by the number of servings in a bottle

Formula:

(2 oz pour for small glasses = 12 servings per bottle)
(4 oz pour for flutes = 6 servings per bottle)

100 guests/12 = 9 bottles of champagne for a toast
100 guests/6 = 17 bottles of champagne for a toast

Take a quarter of your guests (25) multiply by the number of hours of your event (7) = the number of drinks you will need

Formula:

25 x 7 = 175 drinks for 100 guests in 7 hours

Each 750mL bottle of liquor has 12 servings so - 175/12 = 14.58, so 15 bottles of liquor for 100 people for 7 hours

For an event with 100 guests, running for 7 hours, you would need approximately:

Here are some examples based on the formulas above:

100 Guests

150 Guests
