Free Custom Shopping List For Alcohol/Mixers/Garnishes

Do you provide the liquor?

No, we do not personally but we are partnered with Total Wine which offers free delivery on all orders over $99. Please click our “Bartending Packages” tab for more information.

Your bartender will be bringing a basic bar kit that has all the essentials: Shakers, strainers, jiggers, a muddler, and a citrus squeeze. The rest is up to you!

There are full service bartending companies out there, we keep costs low by offering clients the ability to hire just the certified bartender and pay for their time.

If we are not able to pair you with a bartender, we will refund 100% of your money back to you!

We offer professional bartending services for private events, including weddings, corporate functions, and parties. Our bartenders mix, serve, and ensure a seamless beverage experience

Nope! Our prices stay the same with or without tip jars but our bartenders certainly appreciate it.

If cancelled within 48 hours of booking, 100% will be returned to you as long as your event is more than 14 days from the date of booking. If you cancel your event prior to 14 days before your event date, you may be eligible for a partial 50% refund.

You set the schedule for the bartender! Because you are just paying for labor, you pay for the set up and tear down time for the bartender. If you need four hours of service, you will need to pay for additional time to accommodate the appropriate amount of set up time. That amount of time depends on the type of set up you would like/are needing. If there’s a lot of garnishes to cut and prepare and you would like your bartender to do that prep work, please factor that into the amount of time when making your booking.

Absolutely! We have a sister brand that handles full service bartending services called “Desert Diamond Events”. They service all of Southern California. Visit www.desertdiamondevents.com for details.

“On the day of the event, everything was flawless. Our bartender, Omaur, arrived early and brought everything needed--no stress, no scrambling. He set up well before guests arrived and was an absolute pleasure to work with. Omaur was professional, incredibly friendly, and had great energy that matched the party's vibe. Not to mention, the drinks were top-tier! ”
