Cocktails and Garden equipment rental

Q.  the wedding is in France in Province and I am planning an outside garden wedding: do wedding receptions typically require flooring for the seating or can everyone stand on grass? I find that florros are expensive not within my budget. We want a theme cocktail drink, is there a resource to look up recipes? and how do we calculate alcoholic drinks consumption? we have 1 hour open bar and 5 hours reception wine and some mixed drinks.  How do we calculate per person, per drink, per hor and all that?
 

A. It isn't a problem for guests to stand on grass unless the lawn is quite moist from a recent watering or a rain storm.  It is more difficult for ladies to stand if they wear heels.  Chairs for ceremony seating are usually placed directly on the grass, not on a floor.
 
For the specialty drink, ask your bartender or caterer for recommendations. They should be able to make suggestions that will fit the location and fresh fruits available at the time of the wedding/ The bar catering service that I use recommends 1 case of wine and 1 keg of beer for every 100 guests.  That equates to about 3 drinks per person.  They don't figure by the hour, but by total consumption.  Most consumption will occur during the first hour and will taper off the last couple of hours.
