I think that depends largely on what kind of guests those 50-60 people are.
When several of your friends went to England for the wedding of a Certain Couple, the hotel was all "Righto well [X] amount should be sufficient for an open bar for that evening." And the Certain Couple was all "No, like, you don't understand our friends and family." And the hotel was all "It will be fine."
We doubled their maximum estimate.
Yes, but these aren't our friends that I'm talking about.
don't forget napkins! and glasses!
i agree with patient boy. three or four serious whiskey drinkers could cause trouble if you only have two bottles on hand.
maybe a handle of ballantine's? or those green bottles of evan williams? cheap but not deadly.
Well the ice and cups are taken care of- this was just a rough estimate.
