    We are providing beer, wine and soda for our 104 guests. I've found plenty of resources for the amounts of beer and wine to buy, but I can't seem to find how much soda we will need. We're planning on getting Coke, Diet Coke and Sprite in 2-liters, which will be served by our bartender. So, how much should we buy?

    Hmm, thats tough and it depends on your group.  How many kids are attending?  Do a significant portion of your guests not drink alcohol?  Is your wedding at a locaion where people will be spending the night?  If not, there will be more designated drivers who will most likely drink soda.

    You could probably use the same idea from the calculator to estimate how many servings you'd need, although people may not drink soda just to drink the way some will with booze.

    You may want to have plenty of diet soda, in my experience that always runs out the fastest!

    There will be about 22 kids at the wedding. We have about 14 people who are light drinkers, 34 who are moderate drinkers and 34 (these totals are of the 21 and over guests).
