Question 1

Can I just hire bartenders to pour the alcohol I provide?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We are bartenders who mix the drinks with alcohol that you provide. We include a liquor shopping list so you will know how much alcohol to purchase. We are a pouring service only. We do not provide the liquor and mixers.

Question 2

What is your service area?

Accepted Answer

We are based in San Dimas and can travel up to 30 miles with no travel fees. For any city between 30-50 miles from San Dimas, we charge a small travel fee. These include all Beach Cities. For any city more than 50 miles from San Dimas, we generally can accommodate for a slightly higher travel fee.

Question 3

Do you offer advice on our bar purchases

Accepted Answer

Yes, with booking we will send you a drink menu which also includes suggestions for great signature drinks. When you have decided what drinks you want, we will customize a custom liquor shopping list just for you, geared toward being affordable yet keeping everyone very satisfied with well crafted drinks.

Question 4

How many bartenders are included in your pricing?

Accepted Answer

We include 2 bartenders with all of our bar packages. The starting price you see on our profile is the total cost for 2 bartenders. Two bartenders are best to reduce guest wait times, get drinks out quickly, and to keep the bar fully stocked. For these reasons, we aren't able to send only one bartender.

Question 5

Do you provide servers?

Accepted Answer

Yes! As an add-on service to our bartending packages, you may opt for our "Wedding Concierge Service"- a seamless way to elevate your wedding day. Our party helper takes care of every detail, including replenishing water and drink stations, cutting cake, and clearing tables of disposables ensuring guest comfort and a pristine atmosphere, so you can fully enjoy your special day stress-free. Our party helper will discreetly navigate the venue, making sure that your guests are comfortably hydrated and the ambiance remains tidy and inviting.

Question 6

What is included in your bartending package?

Accepted Answer

Our bartending package includes 2 licensed and insured bartenders, all bartending tools for mixing drinks, ice trays for chilling the beer, bar decor, and limes. We can include "extras" for an additional fee such as cups, coolers, straws, napkins, and additional garnish (cherries, lemons, oranges, Tajin, margarita salt, etc.). You are responsible for providing the liquor, mixers, bar or table, cups, and ice. We are an affordable option and the perfect fit for couples who want to save money with our "DIY" approach.

Question 7

Can you sell alcohol if I have a cash bar at my wedding?

Accepted Answer

Short answer: No. Long answer: Selling alcohol requires a Type 47 or 48 liquor license which allows a caterer to provide and sell their own alcohol at an event. Since we are not caterers who provide the beverages, we do not have or need this type of license. As mobile bartenders who pour what the client provides, all alcohol would have to be provided by the couple and be free of charge to guests at any event we service. That said, we are RBS and LEAD licensed for safe serving (this is different from a selling license). The RBS license is the license most venues will require. We have it.

Question 8

Are you insured?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we carry both general liability insurance and liquor liability insurance. We can provide a COI for your venue.
