    I think that is perfectly resonable.

    just make sure you work it out so your not stuck with 5 bottles of vodka and none of something else.

    Sounds like it might be a fun night =)

    that sounds like a great way to celebrate FWIW, it's exactly what i've done when having or going to ****tail parties in the past - we just specified what spirit people should bring so we had the right mix. one other friend who had a ****tail party asked us all to chuck in $10 but i kinda prefer the bring a bottle (even though it costs more - it could be a bottle per couple?)...the only thing would be if you had some non-drinkers

    It'd be per couple so work out cheaper for them and some can just bring some mixer things like lemondae etc if they want to bring somethng.

    I dont think its tacky at all!

    Hubby and I have been to heaps of ****tail parties and we always get asked to bring a bottle of something....I thought this was the norm?!

    DH and I had a ****tail party a few years ago. We have a Money jar that we put all our spare change in, when we counted it up we had over $500 in there so we just went out and bought everything.....3 years later and we are still drinking some of it, and trust me, we like a drink!!! We are using the left overs and our going away party in a few weeks and calling it our 'drink the bar dry party!"

    Sounds like a great idea, and not tacky at all. And by the sounds of it your friend's won't mind at all if you ask them to come to a party
    DH and I celebrate our birthdays 2 days apart, with Valentine's 2 days after that (big week usually!) and we usually do a combined dinner
