Event Planning
& FAQs

For intimate gatherings of 25-50 guests, our bartenders typically require 30 minutes for professional bar setup. For larger events or menus featuring complex artisanal cocktails, we recommend allocating more time to ensure every detail is perfect. In such cases, an additional bartender may be necessary to maintain prompt service and a seamless guest experience. The comprehensive setup process can take up to one hour.

Weddings: Please note that wedding logistics—including full setup and breakdown—require a minimum of 3 hours. We recommend factoring this into your venue timeline accordingly.

Determining the ideal staffing depends on guest count and cocktail complexity. For a traditional bar service, one proficient bartender can elegantly serve up to 50 guests. For more intricate mixology requirements or larger crowds, we will help you determine the optimal staff-to-guest ratio to ensure flawless service.

While both are masters of hospitality, they offer different experiences:

Bartenders: Experts in speed and efficiency. They specialize in classic favorites (Margaritas, Mojitos, Mules) using traditional tools. They excel at managing large crowds with high-energy service.

Mixologists: Focus on an elevated, “boutique” experience. They utilize sophisticated techniques, precise measurements, and artisanal garnishes. This choice is perfect for hosts looking for innovative flavors, colorful presentations, and unique elements like cocktail smoke.

Choose a bartender for fast-paced, high-volume classic service, or a mixologist for a unique and creative tasting journey.

To maintain the highest standards of beverage service, our bartenders and mixologists work exclusively behind the bar. Their priority is crafting cocktails and engaging with your guests. While they are responsible for the total cleanliness of the bar area at the end of their shift, they do not provide floor cleaning or dishwashing services.

To ensure attentive hospitality, we recommend 1 server per 20 guests. This ratio allows our team to provide personalized attention and maintain a clean, organized environment for your celebration.

Our servers are essential for event flow. They maintain the buffet area, restock food displays, clear tables, and assist with cocktail orders to keep your guests comfortable. Please note that servers do not provide back-of-house services such as washing dishes, glassware, or kitchen utensils.
