Everything You Need to Know Before Booking

We’ve designed our service to be seamless, transparent, and stress-free. Below are answers to the most common questions from couples and event hosts planning their bar experience.

BOOKING & AVAILABILITY

  • Most clients book 3–6 months in advance, especially for weddings and peak dates. If your date is important, we recommend reaching out as early as possible to secure availability.

  • Once you submit an inquiry, we’ll:

    1. Confirm availability

    2. Review your event details

    3. Recommend the best package

    4. Send over a custom quote and agreement

    Your date is secured once the deposit and signed agreement are received.

  • Yes. A deposit is required to officially reserve your date. The remaining balance is due closer to the event date.

  • We primarily serve the Bay Area, including Walnut Creek, San Jose, San Francisco, and surrounding regions. Travel outside this area may be available upon request.

ALCOHOL, LICENSING & LEGAL

  • No. Due to California regulations, clients provide all alcohol. We’ll guide you on exactly what to purchase based on your guest count and selected menu.

  • Yes. Our service operates within California’s mobile bartending guidelines. Since the client provides the alcohol, we are able to serve it legally at private events.

  • Yes. We carry general liability insurance, and can provide a Certificate of Insurance (COI) if your venue requires it.

  • Absolutely. We provide a customized shopping list based on your guest count, drink menu, and event duration to ensure you’re fully prepared without overspending.

LOGISTICS & DAY-OF OPERATIONS
