Frequently Asked Questions
Booking and Availability
Most clients book three to six weeks before their event. If your date is approaching soon it is still worth reaching out because availability sometimes opens due to schedule changes.
We work with private celebrations, backyard gatherings, winery events, showers, rehearsal dinners, corporate socials, and intimate weddings. The service is designed for events that want a polished bar presentation without hiring a full catering team.
There is no strict guest minimum. The service works best for gatherings that want a structured bar setup and professional presentation for beer, wine, or simple cocktail service.
Most events reserve the bar setup and service for three to five hours. Timing can be adjusted based on the schedule of the event and the needs of the host.
Send a message with your event date, location, and estimated guest count. Once availability is confirmed a reservation deposit secures the date.
