If you are having an open bar, limit what is available and don’t include expensive spirits.  You can always have this available as a guest pays option if you want.

Having a breakfast wedding will save you on alcohol costs as most guests will not drink a lot in the morning (if you decide to have alcohol at a breakfast wedding at all).

Decide to skip alcohol altogether and just have juices, soft drinks and maybe a fancy punch to add some sophistication.

Buy your drinks for a retail outlet and ask them before hand if you can return what you don’t drink for a refund.  Most will.

If your caterer is providing the drinks, discuss how this will be charged.  Some caterers will charge per person which can cost you extra if you have a lot of people at your wedding who don’t drink alcohol.  On the other hand, other caterers charge per opened bottle, which can also add up if you’re left with lots of half drunk bottles.  Think carefully about the composition of your guest list and how to structure the pricing for drinks.

You know those Christmas hampers that you can get where you put a few dollars away every week and then at Christmas time they send you a box full of goodies?  Did you know you can get alcohol hampers from the same providers?
