You supply
The spirits
You purchase the alcohol — or we shop and stage it in your name, receipts to you. We never invoice for bottles. You keep the list and the budget.
Service
You bring the spirits. We bring the bar.
The bottles are yours. The service, the insurance, and the bar are ours.
We supply
The house
The bar, certified bartenders, ice, mixers, garnishes, glassware, insurance, and the Saturday. Dry hire, in the first paragraph of the contract.
Always in the house
- A California company — never a personal name behind the insurance
- RBS certification for every person who pours
- General liability and liquor liability at $1M / $2M
- Certificates naming the venue and couple, issued for the event
- County and city licenses where the work is regular
- A contract that says dry hire in the first paragraph
From inquiry to clear
The Saturday, in six movements.
- 01
Inquire
A fifteen-minute call. We confirm the venue, the guest count, and whether an outside bar is welcome.
- 02
Lookbook & three options
A package recommendation, a shopping list, and a contract that says dry hire in plain English.
- 03
Fifty percent holds the date
Peak Saturdays book far ahead. A deposit holds the date.
- 04
T–30 planning form
Guest count, menu, load-in, power, surface, COI, alcohol delivery. Signatures named. Glassware decided.
- 05
The Saturday
Arrive two to two-and-a-half hours before first pour. Level. Handwash. Ice. Taste signatures. Walk the planner. Water first.
- 06
Clear
Tear-down in sixty to ninety minutes. The lawn as we found it.
