How Much Wine Will You Need?
The amount of wine needed will depend on the size of your wedding. Follow these steps to estimate your needs:
- Calculate how many people will be drinking at the event.
- Multiply this number by four (to give you the maximum number of standard drinks per person you will need).
- Divide number of standard drinks by five per bottle.
- Divide number of bottles by 30 to determine the number of batches and then round up.
Here's an example for 100 guests:
100 wine drinking guests attending
100 x 4 standard drinks = 400
400 / 5 (5 glasses per 750ml bottle) = 80 bottles of wine
80/30 750ml bottles per batch = 2.67 or 3 batches of wine will be needed.
