We cherish our event bartending clients because everyone and every venue is so unique.
We get to meet interesting people from all walks of life who we now call our friends. What a job!
Our services are available for ALL events - traditional weddings, same-sex weddings, cocktail/birthday/bachelor/bachelorette/private/retirement/graduation parties, corporate events, tailgating and all...
Our first aim is to provide you with a genuine, personal touch with exceptional customer service that overly flashy, corporate bartenders cannot provide.
Our second aim is to provide a reliable, mature and professional experience that the amateur 20 - something cannot provide.
Due to liability issues when serving an open bar our usual serving time is 4 hours plus one extra hour for prep/set up, plus our drive time.
The max number of guests for one bartender is about 60-70 depending on what's being served.
**Avg fee is typically $350 for 1 bartender (MAX of four hours of serving plus one extra hour for prep/set up on our time) plus client gratuity of your choice based on total fee and your overall satisfaction.
For 75-150 guests, 2 bartenders, fee is typically $475, plus client gratuity on total fee.
We are still running a lean crew as we continue to recover business from the pandemic. Additional bartenders are not always available.
Fee assumes use of a guest tip jar. Without guest tip jar add $15 per hour per bartender.
The number of different beverages being served to the number of guests may effect fee and number of bartenders needed.
Simpler is always better re: alcohol choices. Guests would rather have basic, popular choices then stand in annoying drink lines with 20 choices.
*A basic bar that still satisfies consists of 2 beers, 2-3 wines, 3-5 liquors and 6-7 mixers as a recommendation.
Typically when serving liquor over 75% of guests will choose it over beer/wine.
Of those liquor drinkers over 75% will drink vodka or bourbon.
When serving liquor you only need minimal beer/wine choices. We do not provide alcohol. We cut all garnish.
*I will provide you with a detailed recommendations email for all you will need for your shopping list including all alcohol beverages, mixers, garnish, ice, etc. Including types, brands and quantities.
**To reserve your date all that's required is a non-refundable deposit ($75) to one of my accounts - CashApp ($craigdane61) no fee, or Venmo.com (CraigDane), see pic of us in black, no fee, or Paypal (my email add.) add 2.9% fee to your deposit.
*We bring all our own barware tools, cocktail ice bin and scoop, coolers, metal bins, cocktail straws and napkins, trash can, floor mat and a portable bar set-up if needed.
A stress free experience that earns your repeat business is our underlying goal.
This business is my livelihood not a hobby. We're here to serve! Your bartender search is over!
*ALSO: I am an ORDAINED MINISTER/WEDDING OFFICIANT that can officiate your traditional or same-sex wedding!
Typical charge is $225 depending on distance. I am rarely needed at rehearsal because my duties are fairly straightforward regardless of size of wedding party or guest number. You may customize any aspect of your ceremony or I can handle the entire arrangement and text. All consultations included.
I thank you for your consideration in CDE!
Please contact me at your convenience, "contact info" will open to show my cell number.
Thank you, cheers!
