FAQ
No surprises. Just answers.
Everything you need to know about working with us. Still have questions? Book a free call and we'll walk you through it.
Why do I need to provide the alcohol?
Because we operate in a BYO (dry-hire) format. You purchase the alcohol, and we handle everything else — ice, mixers, garnishes, bar tools, setup, service, and clean teardown. This is actually a win for you: - You control the budget (no markups, no fees hidden in alcohol pricing) - You choose your preferred brands - We provide a personalized shopping list — right categories, right amounts — so there's no guesswork
What type of events do you do?
We specialize in private and corporate events where the host wants a smooth, restaurant-level bar experience — without managing the bar themselves. Common events: - Weddings & backyard receptions - Birthdays & anniversaries - House & backyard parties - Baby showers & family celebrations - Corporate events (COI/W9/invoice-ready when needed) Best fit: 40–120 guests in NYC/NJ.
Some of my guests don't drink — can you handle that?
Yes. We include zero-proof mocktails and non-alcoholic options so every guest has a drink they'll enjoy — not just a glass of water. Tell us your guest mix (non-drinkers, pregnant guests, sober-curious), and we'll build a simple NA plan into your menu.
What if I order too much or too little alcohol?
This is exactly what we help you avoid. Before your event, you'll receive a personalized BYO shopping list — right categories, right amounts, based on your guest count and cocktail menu. No "buy a safety margin and hope for the best." No running out of vodka halfway through. Just a clear, calculated list you can take straight to Total Wine or Costco. If your guest count changes before the event, we'll update the plan accordingly.
How fast can I get a quote?
Fast. Just share four things: - Event type - Estimated guest count - Event date - ZIP code / location We respond within a few hours (9am–9pm). If you reach out after hours, you'll hear from us by 10am the next morning.
How do I confirm my date?
Two steps: - You approve the quote - Deposit is received Once both are done, your date is locked — staffing and prep are confirmed on our end. Until the deposit is received, we can't hold the date.
How does pricing work?
We quote based on three things: guest count, service hours, and location/logistics. Your quote clearly shows what's included — and what isn't. Price changes only if: - Guest count changes - Service hours change - Event location or logistics change That's it. No surprise line items after you sign. If it wasn't in your quote, you don't pay for it.
When do you arrive day-of?
We arrive 60–90 minutes before service starts to complete a full setup. By the time your first guest walks up to the bar, everything is ready — ice packed, station set, bar stocked. You won't be coordinating anything. That's our job.
What happens if something goes wrong day-of?
We arrive early specifically to prevent that. The setup window exists so there are no surprises once guests arrive. If something unexpected comes up during the event — we handle it. That's what a professional bar team is for. You won't be the one solving bar problems on your event day. That's the whole point of hiring us.
Do you work with venues that have specific requirements?
Yes. We're fully insured and familiar with NYC/NJ venue requirements. If your venue needs a COI, Additional Insured documentation, or has specific rules around alcohol service — send us the requirements before you book. We'll confirm everything upfront so there are no last-minute surprises with the venue.
How do you handle alcohol safety at the event?
Responsibly and by the book. All our bartenders operate with an ID policy and responsible service standards. We don't serve minors. We monitor guests for signs of overservice. If a venue has specific compliance requirements, we follow them — no exceptions. This protects your guests, your venue, and you as the host.
Our venue requires a COI — can you provide that?
Yes. We carry general liability and liquor liability insurance, and can provide: - Certificate of Insurance (COI) - Additional Insured endorsement (when required by the venue) - W9 and itemized invoice (for corporate events) If your venue sent you a requirements list, share it with us and we'll confirm we can meet it before you commit.
Do you have a rain date policy?
Yes. Especially for outdoor and backyard events, we know weather can change plans. If you need to move to a rain date or pivot indoors, we'll work with you to reschedule based on availability. The exact terms are included in your quote — no surprises if the weather doesn't cooperate. Share your date and location when you reach out, and we'll include the reschedule policy in your quote from the start.
