I would say 2 pans, each with 3 cups rice/6 cups water should be plenty. It really depends what else is being served and how they are serving it.
If they are just doing rice and some type of stir-fry type dish, you might need (a lot) more.
If this is just one side and they are also doing other (starchy) sides, 1 might even be enough.

I had 33 ppl Friday night. I made one pan of rice (2 cups with lots of veggies)
I didn’t individually plate, but I had enough with a drop left over.

Its 1/3 to 1/2 cup of uncooked rice per person. See, eg, https://calculate-this.com/how.....ator. So for 25 people, you need to make 8 to 12 cups of rice.
If you're serving multiple other grains, you may be able to reduce.

That's a bit much. When I make 1 cup uncooked rice it serves 4 adults. 6-8 is enough for 25 ppl.

I had 25 people last night and 1 9x13 pan on a buffet was enough. (I made 4!!) You will need more if plated.

Also, we're assuming there's more than one choice for side dish at the buffet, right?
If there's also veggies, salads, and especially if there's another starch, I think 2 is plenty.

Thanks. I made 2 pans which was more than enough.
Could I freeze leftovers for shabbos?
