The cup every part of a wedding weekend runs on, and the one thing nobody packs: the welcome party, the house, the after-party and the water station by the dance floor. A hundred covers a weekend for a dozen people, with spares for the drive home.

For barn, lake and backyard weddings the after-party is a fire, and this one burns without the smoke that follows guests around; it goes home to your patio afterward.
