Depends on how much and what your friends like to drink . I'd err on the safe side and get more gin ... people love gin and tonic in the summer . Also, maybe buy the boxed wine .. as a back up, if you run low. Have lots of mixers ( soda, tonic, coke,diet coke,7-up, gingerale,fruit juices) on hand, and don't forget lemon and lime garnishes..... cherries too, if your company drinks manhattans .. ( you'll need dry and sweet vermouth, too. ) Serve lots of food, too, to absorb all the alcohol ! Remember too, that laws are getting really harsh for under-age drinking or DWIs, and the hosts of a party can be held responsible.

One drink = 12oz beer = 5oz wine = 1.5oz 80 proof liquorOne 15.5 gallon keg (half barrel) = 165x12oz = 165 drinksOne 750ml bottle of wine = 25.36oz = about 5 drinksOne 750ml bottle of liquor = 25.36oz = about 17 drinksThree kegs = 495 drinksEight cases x 24 beers = 192 drinksFifteen bottles of liquor = 225 drinksEight bottles of wine = 40 drinks952 Drinks / 75 Guests = Over 12 drinks per person3pm to 10pm = 7 hour partyThis means there will be enough for each guest to have 2 drinks every hour for the first 6 hours.The body can process one drink per hour, so by 10pm, each guest will have 5 drinks still in their system. This means that by the end of the party, a 175lb man will have a blood-alcohol content of about .125% and a 150lb woman will have a BAC of .169% (more than double the legal limit).To answer your question, this should be plenty for the party, and since not everyone there will be drinking, you'll even have some left over. Please make sure everyone has a designated driver and avoid binge drinking.
