Yes. We offer beautifully crafted mocktails with fresh mixers, seasonal garnishes, and polished presentation. We strongly encourage including at least one mocktail because we have seen an increase in guests who choose not to drink alcohol but still want to feel included. A beautiful mocktail gives them something more memorable than soda or water and looks just as special as the signature cocktails.

Absolutely. With our optional Alcohol Concierge Service, we prepare and place the recommended alcohol order based on your guest count, service time, and drink menu. You review, approve, and pay the alcohol retailer directly, and our team coordinates pickup and delivery to the event.

We recommend one bartender for every approximately 60-65 guests, though this may vary based on the event type and services offered. This strategic ratio helps us maintain short wait times at the bar, uphold the aesthetic appeal of our bar setup, and continuously restock items as needed, ensuring a seamless service flow throughout the event. By providing the optimal bartender-to-guest ratio, we prioritize efficiency, quality, and guest experience, allowing you to relax and enjoy your event with confidence.

In more than 650 events, we have encountered only a couple of situations that required additional attention. In our experience, guests generally drink more responsibly when professional bartenders prepare their beverages instead of using a self-service bar. Our bartenders use consistent pours, monitor service, and discreetly slow or stop service when necessary. If we notice that a guest may have had too much, we handle the situation gracefully and professionally while prioritizing the guest’s safety and the overall celebration.

Do your bartenders circulate and serve drinks?

Our bartenders’ primary responsibility is to remain behind the bar preparing beverages, keeping the bar organized, and monitoring responsible alcohol service. At smaller events, when service allows, we may occasionally circulate with cocktails or collect empty cups as a courtesy. If you would like continuous tray-passed cocktails, table service, or glassware collection, dedicated cocktail servers may be added to your proposal.

For safe and responsible service, alcohol remains behind the bar under our team’s supervision, especially when minors are present. Our bartenders use consistent pours, monitor service, check identification when appropriate, and gracefully handle situations in which a guest may have had enough. If alcohol is placed at a separate self-service station, that arrangement must be approved in advance, and the client assumes responsibility for alcohol served outside our supervised bar area.

We love pets, but animals must be secured away from the bar and working areas during setup and breakdown and may not enter the space behind the bar. We created this policy after a normally calm dog became nervous during breakdown and bit a member of our team while equipment was being moved. Keeping pets safely separated protects the animals, our staff, and your guests.
