FREQUENTLY ASKED

BOOKING
 

How far in advance should I book?

You're welcome to reserve your date whenever you're ready. We place a complimentary 14-day soft hold on your event date after sending your quote. Popular dates book quickly, so we recommend booking as soon as you've made your decision.

 

Can I make changes after booking?

Absolutely. Guest count, service hours, cocktail menu, and add-ons can all be updated after booking. We'll confirm all final details about two weeks before your event.

 

Do you offer tastings?

Yes! We offer private in-home cocktail tastings for $400. Tastings are available Tuesday and Wednesday. Contact us to schedule yours.

 

Are you insured?

Yes. We carry $1 million in general and liquor liability insurance. If your venue requires a certificate of insurance or additional insured coverage, we're happy to provide it.

 

Do you travel?

Yes! We serve events throughout Los Angeles, Orange County, and surrounding areas. Travel fees may apply for venues outside our standard service area.

 

PLANNING YOUR BAR

 

How many cocktails can I choose?

Our packages include up to four featured cocktails. Additional cocktails can be added for an additional fee.

 

Can I choose cocktails from both the Classic and Signature menus?

Absolutely. You're welcome to mix and match. If your menu includes even one Signature Cocktail, your package will be considered a Signature Menu.

 

Can you create a custom cocktail?

Yes! We'd love to. We can create a custom cocktail inspired by your event, favorite flavors, or theme. Custom cocktail development is available for an additional fee.

 

Do you offer mocktails?

Yes! We offer handcrafted mocktails made with the same fresh ingredients as our cocktails, making sure every guest has something special to enjoy.

 

When do I need to choose my cocktails?

Your cocktail menu can be finalized up to 10 days before your event. Once finalized, we'll send your alcohol shopping list or review your alcohol order if you've added our alcohol handling service.

 

Can guests order drinks that aren't on the menu?

Yes! In addition to your featured cocktails, guests are welcome to order simple mixed drinks using the spirits and mixers available at the bar.

 

Can you provide the alcohol?

Alcohol is not included in our standard packages. You're welcome to purchase it yourself using our detailed shopping list, or we can coordinate the alcohol purchase and delivery through our Alcohol Handling Service for an additional fee.

 

What happens if my guest count changes?

No problem! Guest counts can be updated after booking. Your final guest count is due before your planning deadline so we can prepare the appropriate staffing and supplies.

 

BAR SERVICE

 

How many bartenders will be at my event?

We staff each event based on your guest count to keep service fast and efficient.

  • Up to 55 guests: 1 bartender

  • 56–79 guests: 1 bartender + 1 barback

  • 80–110 guests: 2 bartenders

For larger events, we'll recommend the appropriate staffing based on your guest count and service style. Additional bartenders and barbacks can always be added upon request.

 

Can you also serve beer and wine?

Absolutely! Beer and wine service is included alongside cocktails. For the smoothest service, we recommend keeping your selections simple, such as three beers, two white wines, and two red wines.

 

My venue already has a bar. Do I still need yours?

Not necessarily. If your venue has a suitable bar, we're happy to use it and deduct $100 from your package. We prefer a two-tier bar but can work with many bar setups. We do not serve from banquet tables with linens or other temporary surfaces.

 

My guest count is 150, but only 100 people will be drinking. Can I be quoted for 100?

Unfortunately, no. Our pricing is based on total attendance since many non-drinking guests still visit the bar for water, soft drinks, mocktails, and other non-alcoholic beverages.

 

EVENT DAY

 

What time do you arrive?

Our team typically arrives 1.5 to 3 hours before bar service begins, depending on the size and complexity of your event.

 

Do you bring everything needed for the bar?

Yes! We provide the portable bar (when needed), professional bar equipment, fresh juices, homemade syrups, garnishes, mixers, ice, coolers, and everything needed to serve cocktails. You'll simply provide the alcohol unless you've added our Alcohol Handling Service.

 

Do you bring ice, water, and soft drinks?

Yes. We bring enough ice, mixers, and soft drinks for bar service, including Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, club soda, tonic water, cranberry juice, and pineapple juice. These beverages are intended for bar service only, if you'd like additional beverages available elsewhere during your event, we recommend purchasing those separately.
