How much liquor do I need for 50 people for a wedding? Budget-friendly options?

Question

Hi everyone,

I have my wedding coming up later this year, and I honestly have no idea how much liquor I should buy to serve around 50 guests.

For those who have recently organized weddings or events in Sri Lanka:

  • Roughly how many litres of liquor would be enough for 50 people?
  • What’s a safe estimate, assuming not everyone drinks heavily?
  • What are some budget-friendly but decent liquor options available in Sri Lanka?

I’m trying to plan properly without overspending, but also don’t want to run short on the day 😅

Also, if you know any reliable suppliers or someone who can help with bulk purchasing at a reasonable price, please let me know (you can DM me as well).

Appreciate any advice. Thanks in advance! 🙏
