Liquor
Until recently, vodka was our most popular spirit for events, but we're finding whiskey and tequila have quickly caught up in terms of demand. Consider what sorts of mixed drinks you'd like to serve, what direction you think your crowd will lean toward and plan accordingly.
Keep it simple
If the event is not a wine tasting, then keep it simple with wine offerings. In most cases, one red and one white wine will work best. More choices will make it more likely you will run out of something.
Check
Some wedding reception venues do not allow red wine, glass bottles, etc. Check beforehand to be sure.
Budget
People are often nervous about how much a bulk order of alcohol can add up to, but fear not: we can accommodate virtually any budget! Our qualified experts have the right know-how to get you out the door with the drinks you need at a price that will keep you satisfied.
Red, white, or both.
Red and white wine usually split evenly (half and half) for mid-day events. However, red wine is a more popular choice than white wine when the food offerings are more substantial, such as heavy hors d’oeuvres or a sit down dinner, or when the event is held later in the day or evening. For these situations you may need as much as 2:1 red-to-white.
Pro tip
Magnum sized wine bottles (1.5L) are easier to serve because there are less bottles to open. Additionally, 1.75L liquor bottles can save you money, but be advised that some caterers/bartenders require 750ML/1L sized bottles.
Beer
Also keep it simple when it comes to beer. Unless the event is a beer tasting, think about no more than 3 choices: a popular domestic, a popular import, and a popular light/ultralight.
Champagne
If you are planning a Champagne toast, and this is purely ceremonial, then you don’t need to spend a lot on your bubbly (unless you can afford to and want to). If your budget is tight, spend less for the toast and use the savings to buy a special bottle for the guest of honor.
Non-Alcoholic Options
Ensure that everyone in your party is able to partake in the fun! We have plenty of non-alc options available for you and your guests, including champagne, beer, wine, ready-to-drink cocktails, spirits, and mixers. It's generally a good idea to keep at least a couple non-alc options available for your guests.
