What July4Planner does
Enter your guest count and we turn it into a complete cookout plan: food and drink quantities, bags of ice, a budget, a shopping checklist, a day-of timeline, and a printable summary. No spreadsheets, no guesswork.
Free, and private by design
The planner is completely free with no sign-up. Everything you enter is savedin your own browser — we don't run accounts or store your plan on a server. Clear your browser data and it's gone. See our privacy policy for details.
How our numbers work
Our estimates come from classic host rules of thumb — roughly two burgers per guest, about a drink per person per hour, and a pound or so of ice per head — tuned for a hot American summer afternoon and rounded up so you never run short. They're starting points: you know your crowd, so adjust freely.
