Bartender Questions, Answered
How many bartenders will I need?
A good rule of thumb is one bartender per 50 to 75 guests. Larger events usually add a lead bartender to run the team so the line never backs up.
Is alcohol included in the price?
Not automatically. Bartender packages cover the staff and setup. When it is available, we can help coordinate alcohol delivery through licensed partners or guide you on what to provide.
Do mobile bartenders bring their own tools?
Yes. Bottle openers, ice buckets, shakers, and standard bar tools come with every booking. Full supply packages with mixers, garnish, and glassware are available too.
How far ahead should I book?
Weekday events can often book two to four weeks out. Weekends and holidays fill faster, so four to eight weeks gives you the best choice of dates.
