Ask the venue as each place varies - also some people have a free bar for just wine and lager, spirits to be paid for, so find out what your options are  |

Only have a free bar if your reception is in a private hall and you can buy it all before hand, then when it's all gone hard luck, other wise as I read in one of your other replies people just go silly.
If you are in a hotel etc. Just put an amount you can afford behind the bar and when it's gone they have to buy there own, people don't expect free bars nowadays | haniton wrote: | | anyone know what the costs are approximately for a free bar for 120 people starting around 3pm to closing. i need to know for my budget? |

| i did go to a wedding once where a voucher was given on arrival for a free drink. I thought it was a bit like a tombola so I wouldn't do that, also my friends were buying really expensive drinks with their voucher just for the sake of it. I think Rose mum of the bride has good advice |
