    Tell us about the event.

    Date, venue, headcount, and whether it's hosted, ticketed, or cash.

    We build the plan

    Bar type, menu, staffing, and a clear quote.

    We handle event day.

    Professional service on the day, straightforward paperwork after.

    Payment options that fit a company budget

    • Hosted tab — the company covers drinks up to a set limit.
    • Drink tickets — control cost per guest with tickets or vouchers we reconcile for you.
    • Cash bar — guests pay their own way.

    We'll recommend the structure that keeps costs predictable and reporting clean, and we invoice your company directly.

    Holiday parties, happy hours, conferences and conventions, product launches, grand openings, fundraisers and galas, appreciation events, and private company celebrations.

    Why companies rebook us

    Fifteen-plus years of events, a team that shows up prepared, and service polished enough for a client-facing gala but easygoing enough for a Friday happy hour. We handle the bar so your team can focus on the event.
