100-person wedding, open bar: how many porta potties to prevent lines?

Nina R.asked 1 viewHow Many UnitsUnits per personClusterHandwash stationWeddingStandard unit

My sister is getting married next month. Outdoor venue, 100 guests, open bar all evening. I saw a wedding once where the line for the porta potties was ten people deep. I don't want that for her. I'm trying to figure out the right number of standard units to rent.

The ground is grassy and level, and the rental truck can pull right up to the placement spot. I know alcohol means people use the restroom more. I'm considering adding a deluxe unit for the wedding party or maybe a small restroom trailer to make it feel nicer. Do I need one ADA-compliant unit for a wedding this size, or is that only for larger events? Should I plan for a mid-event service visit with the bar running for five hours?

Rent three standard units and one ADA-compliant unit for a 100-person wedding with an open bar. The ADA cluster rule requires at least one ADA-compliant portable toilet in any cluster of portable toilets, regardless of event size. Alcohol consumption increases restroom use, so this count prevents long lines.

Add a deluxe unit or a small restroom trailer for a nicer experience, but note that restroom trailers need electrical power and level ground. A mid-event service visit is unnecessary for a five-hour event; weekly service is standard. The rental cost depends on unit types, rental duration, service frequency, and delivery distance.
