How big are the machines? The ones I've used took a 500g bag for about 50-60 cups of coffee IIRC.

if it's going to get very hot and stay hot
..since the topic came up on this thread recently as well - consider making (or: have someone make) a batch of cold brew the evening before!

Especially if it's going to get very hot and stay hot, it might be nice to have a lighter roast
I'm biased, but I'll bet a lighter roast would not age well in a machine like that. You want something that can take cream and sugar and not curdle in your mouth

I'd second @withered_preacher on the slightly darker roast, especially at a wedding (the majority of people are gonna want milk/cream/sugar regardless.) I often make Red Brick as a filter if it's for my family as I know it's still going to be a million times tastier than what they're usually drinking.
Amounts wise, if you can find out how many litres that thing holds, it'll give you an idea of coffee. Usually between 60-70g per litre.

I like the Union Bright Note coffee from Waitrose etc so I might get a couple of bags of that.
Especially if it's going to get very hot and stay hot, it might be nice to have a lighter roast.
Thanks all for the advice. Finally, any suggestions for how much I'll actually need?
