Many of our customers come to us for glassware and ask "How many do I need?". A question Allison and I dread, because honestly, we don't know. I always end up going to Google and reading their recommendations. There are two options that come up most: One glass per person per hour and 3-4 glasses per person for the whole event. I personally think 3 glasses per person at the bar and that it never hurts to have a few sleeves of acrylic glasses to have as a back up.
The next thing people are unsure of it what style of glass to get. I would say if you are serving beer and wine only, wine glasses and some all purpose glasses would be fine. The all purpose will work fine for soda and beer. If the bar will be serving a full selection of wine, beer, and mixed drinks, I would go with wine glasses, rocks or high ball, and all purpose. If a signature drink is on the menu, make it stand out with a flute, martini, or stemless martini. The unusual shape and a subtle garnish will give it the "wow" factor.

Love Is Sweet
This past summer I had a wonderful bride come into our office to plan her rentals with us and during our meeting she told me that she was having a "Candy Bar" during her reception. Before that meeting I had never really heard of people having "Candy Bar's," but since then I've been hearing and seeing them pop up everywhere. What a fabulous idea! It's great if you have children at your event or even for us adults to revisit our past and indulge in some of our favorite past time favorites. You can get very creative with putting your own personal touch to it and making it fun. I love seeing all the different jars, containers, scoops and tongs people come up with. I've seen candies matched to the colors of an event to seeing a rainbow of colors. You can also tie bows to labeling the jars with the name of the candy. All in all it's a wonderful idea that can satify anyones sweet tooth!
