Ordering ice for an event seems simple — until you run out halfway through.
Whether it’s a wedding, corporate function, or private party, planning ice properly makes a big difference.
Know Your Guest Count
The number of guests determines how much ice you’ll need. As a general rule, plan 1.5–2 kg per person, adjusted for event length and drink type.
Consider the Type of Drinks
Cocktails and spirits use more ice than beer or wine. Premium ice also lasts longer, meaning you may need less than expected.
Ice Type Matters
Loose ice, ice cups, and large-format ice serve different purposes. Choosing the right type improves efficiency and presentation.
Storage and Access
Think about where ice will be stored and how it will be accessed during the event. Insulated containers help reduce melt and waste.
Why Quality Ice Matters at Events
Fast-melting ice leads to warm drinks, dilution, and unhappy guests. Slow-melting, well-made ice keeps service smooth and professional.
Good events are remembered for the details — and ice is one of them.
