How much does Mobile Bartending cost?
Hiring a mobile bartender for your event can be a great addition, but it’s important to understand why the costs might be higher than you think. Oftentimes it’s thought that we just show up day of your event and pour; however, that is not the case! In this blog post, we will break down what goes into this service and explain what you can expect when hiring a mobile bartender.
1) Planning and Management: The services provided by a mobile bartender start even before they arrive at your event. They will assist you with booking, answer any questions you may have, and help with the planning process. It’s important to note that mobile bartenders offer more than just mixing drinks – they provide guidance and support throughout the entirety of your event.
2) Bar Staff: Having a professional and efficient team to handle the bar area is crucial for a successful event. The number of staff required will depend on the size of your event and the number of guests. The larger the headcount, the more staff you will need to ensure smooth operations.
3) Signature Cocktails: Mobile bartenders work closely with you to create unique and custom craft cocktails that complement your occasion. These signature cocktails often consist of three or more ingredients, including homemade syrups and fresh pressed juices. Creating these special cocktails requires time and expertise, adding a special touch to your event.
4) Bar Necessities: In order to make your bar functional and efficient, certain necessities are required. This includes drinkware, beverage napkins, straws, bar tools, coolers, ice bins, and ice. Additionally, mixers, garnishes, and other non-alcoholic options are also provided. These items ensure that the bar is well-equipped and able to cater to your guests’ needs.
5) Bar Safety: The safety of your guest is top priority! In addition to showing your guests a great time, hiring a professional bar service will ensure that guests are taken care of and other methods of transportation are used if needed.
Hiring a mobile bartender is a luxury service that comes with a price, but it is definitely worth it for the added convenience, expertise, and unique experience they bring to your event.
