>>>>>all of that for a 120 person party, DAMN !!!

Well that would be better than the magic 6 bottles... and certainly more 
enjoyable than 20 bottles of rot gut wine and 20 cases of Natural Ice beer, 4 
jugs of cheap vodka and a bunch of mt dew & pepsi....

Actually I forgot a few things...3 Bottles of Triple Sec (DOH!!!) maybe even a 
bottle of cointreau, Jagermiester, Golschlager, Egg Nog (it is that time of 
year) and pineapple juice!! Since scotch is big with your friends get the 18 
y/o Glenlivet instead of the 12. I also forgot Dry and Sweet Vermouth,...  For 
garnishes get a jar of olives a jar of cherries 20 limes and 20 lemons. 
Glassware should be a concern too when serving that # of guests. I would 
reccommend getting 3 different sized plastic glasses 4 or 5 oz, 8 oz, and 
12/16 oz...(you can find some really nice plastic party sets in NYC)I would 
try to get 3 of each glass type per guest that is expected to drink. and also 
get some platic cocktail/martini glasses unless you have a really big 
dishwasher... I would try to get 3 of each glass type per guest that is 
expected to drink. ( but only 40 of the cocktail glasses...)

Oh yeah Free booze will always affect consumption (make sure your hired 
bartenders get tipped well) and considering the age of people attending I 
would be prepared because people in that age range have the highest alcohol 
tolerances and consumption rates of all the brackets. 

I hope you enjoy your party... I miss the parties I went to when I lived in 
Brooklyn.  Post pics if ya can!!!
