Stocking The Bar At Your Wedding Reception

When you’re planning for your wedding, one of the most important things you need to consider is the budget that you are working with. You should know the cost of all the items and activities that will take place at your wedding. That will help you to come up with an estimated budget that will guide you when shopping. You have to be well prepared and have enough money to cater for the bills. If you decide to have a bar at your wedding reception, there are certain types of drinks that you need to have stocked.

As much as you would like to stock the bar, be kind to buy alcohol for those who love the booze. Don’t forget to include the non-alcoholic drinks on that budget because not all of your guests like to tipple.

Here is a good list of drinks to stock the bar at your wedding:

Drinks with alcohol (the quantity depends on the number of guests you expect their taste & preferences)

Mixers (also depends on the number of guests you expect and their taste & preferences)

  • Orange juice
  • Cranberry juice
  • Grapefruit juice
  • Sparkling water
  • Bottled water
  • Lime juice
  • Diet Coke
  • Club soda

As for the non-alcoholic drinks, you should go for Seedlip Grove, a pure distilled spirit that you can’t resist taking another sip.

Choosing the type of bar to have at your wedding reception is also a tricky affair. Many prefer to have an open bar at a wedding reception. In an open bar, the guests normally get the drinks for free. A guest can order any drink and it’s without a limit. This bar is most gracious if your wedding ceremony is for invites only. But if you have an uncontrolled number of guests in attendance, it can also be very expensive. The bartender should be informed about the few people you know who love to imbibe too much. Seedlip Grove is made of a blend of three types of orange and uplifting spice distillates making a complex classic drink.

Others choose to have a limited bar. This is where the guests are served with a signature cocktail, wine, or beer and you may set specific consumption times, such as the toasts and the cocktail hour. That would help to save some money on alcohol and also ensure that fewer guests go overboard.

The cash bar, on the other hand, seems economical, but whatever the case you don’t have to invite people to your wedding reception and have them celebrate at their own cost. That would be somehow termed as mean. If would like to save some money on alcohol, check with your guests. If most of the guests don’t drink alcohol, you should not have it served. Stock the bar with other drinks and the guests will appreciate the refreshments.
