We're going to hire our glasses from Sainsburys, as they do free hire, and you just pay £1 per breakage. However I'm not sure how many glasses I will need... We will have 60 guests (or just less). Per guest we will provide the following drinks:
2x prosecco during reception
2x wine during meal
1x prosecco for toasts
So I'll need a wine glass per person, that's easy, but do I hire 1 champagne flute per person (60 glasses), or do I hire 1 champagne flute per drink (180 glasses), so no-one has to worry about washing them up?
We've hired a bar company after dinner who will provide their own glasses, so I don't need to worry about that bit. However we were thinking of providing lager and cider during the reception, as well as some soft drinks, for those that don't want to drink prosecco. The lager will be bottled, should I provide glasses for that? And maybe 60 hi-ball glasses for soft drinks, does that sound about right?
