Your Perfect Pour Awaits Every Guest
Take the guesswork out of your next event. Our drink planner calculates exactly how much wine, beer, and spirits you'll need — so no glass goes empty.
Wine Planner
Calculate your wine needs for any celebration — from intimate dinners to grand weddings.
Wine Types to Include
Your Wine Recommendation
5 Glasses Per Bottle
A standard 750ml bottle yields ~5 pours at 5 oz each. We build in a buffer so every guest is covered.
Temperature Matters
Miami's warmth shifts preferences toward whites and rosés. For outdoor events, lean 60% white, 40% red.
Always Round Up
It's better to have a bottle extra than to run short. Unopened bottles can be returned or enjoyed later.
Beer Planner
From craft IPAs to refreshing lagers, calculate the right mix and quantity for your gathering.
Beer Styles
Your Beer Recommendation
Plan 1–2 Per Hour
1 drink per guest per hour for the first two hours, then 0.75 per hour after — a comfortable pace.
Variety is Key
Offer at least two styles: a crowd-pleasing lager and a craft option. Aim for a 60/40 split.
Keep It Cold
In Miami's heat, budget 1.5 lbs of ice per person and keep coolers out of direct sunlight.
Spirits Planner
Whether you're hosting a cocktail hour or a full open bar, calculate the spirits you need with confidence.
Spirits to Include
Your Spirits Recommendation
16 Drinks per 750ml
Each bottle yields ~16 cocktails at a 1.5 oz pour. A 1.75L handle gives about 39 servings.
Signature Cocktails Save
Limiting to 2–3 signature cocktails reduces waste and speeds service.
Don't Forget Mixers
Budget 1 liter of mixers for every 3 guests, plus citrus and garnishes.
Full Bar Planner
The complete picture — calculate wine, beer, and spirits together for a seamlessly stocked open bar.

The 1-Drink Rule
A safe baseline is 1 drink per guest per hour. Adjust up for festive events, down for professional ones.
The 33/33/33 Split
For a full bar, split evenly — one third each for wine, beer, and spirits — then tune to your crowd.
Budget 10% Extra
Always purchase 10% more than calculated. Unexpected guests and generous pours are real factors.
