1 The typical cost for a two-hour cocktail party ranges from $25-$230 per person. 2  On the higher end, hosts may choose a high-end venue, premium hors d'oeuvres and a full bar. 3  Caterers specializing in cocktail receptions let the host choose hot and cold appetizers for about $15 to $35 per person. The typical range is $4 - $22 per person for each hour of the event, with options ranging from beer or wine only to a full bar. 2  For a 2-hour party, Cork Catering in Illinois charges $7.50 per guest for beer or wine only and $14.50 per guest for a premium bar serving most types of mixed drinks.
My venue only allows for a consumption bar and I naively budgeted under $1000 for this. Plan for two to three drinks per person for the first hour of the reception and one drink per person for every additional hour of the reception. I'm getting (using 150 ppl) at total of 840 drinks of wine, beer, or liquor! Using $4/glass wine (or $16/bottle) = $3360 ($2688). Liquor at $5/drink = $4200!
