Frequently asked questions about bar services

How many waiters do I need for my event?

The usual ratio is 1 waiter per 25-30 guests for a smooth service. For events with an active cocktail bar or a busy open bar, 1 waiter per 20 guests is recommended.

Does the open bar include all types of drinks?

It depends on the package. Basic packages include soft drinks, wine and beer. Premium packages add spirits, mixed drinks, cocktails and premium non-alcoholic options. Review the list of included drinks when requesting your quote.

Can I customise cocktails for my wedding?

Yes. Many bartenders offer signature cocktails designed specifically for the event, featuring the couple's names, the wedding colours or ingredients with a special meaning for the newlyweds.

Does the bar service include transport and setup of the bar?

In most cases, yes. The provider brings their own equipment, sets up the bar in the designated space and dismantles it at the end. Confirm this in your quote, as some providers charge separately for travel.
