Wedding Drink Calculator

A typical wedding guest drinks 1–2 drinks per hour, which means you need around 5–8 drinks per guest for a 4–5 hour reception. The calculator automatically splits that into beer, wine, and liquor so you get the right balance — without overspending.

You’ll also get estimates for:
• Mixers & sodas (tonic, cola, juices, simple syrup)
• Ice calculations (1.5–2 lbs per guest minimum)
• Garnishes (citrus, cherries, olives, herbs)
• Bar tools & glassware
• Signature drink quantities
• How many bartenders you need

The goal is simple: help you build a well-stocked bar that keeps the party going all night while staying on budget.
