FAQ

Quick answers before you inquire

Do you provide alcohol or a portable bar?

No — this is a service-only setup. You provide a suitable bar station and purchase/provide all alcohol, mixers, ice, garnishes, and glassware. We bring bartending tools and run service. Optional help arranging nonalcohol supplies can be quoted separately.

Are you certified?

Yes. Our bartender holds a current California RBS (Responsible Beverage Service) certification and a food handler card.

What area do you serve?

Santa Monica and the surrounding Westside, including Venice, Brentwood, Pacific Palisades, Marina del Rey, and Culver City. If you're just outside that range, ask — travel may be quoted separately.

What are your packages?

Base package $350 (4 service hours + 1 setup + 1 breakdown, focused menu, up to about 50 guests subject to review). Short-event minimum $250 (up to 2 service hours + setup/breakdown). Additional service hours $65. Travel/parking and unusual logistics are quoted separately before booking.

Are shorter events okay?

Yes. Dinners, openers, and shorter gatherings are welcome. Lower budgets can be reviewed as shorter-event scopes rather than assumed full packages.

What's included in the free signature cocktail?

We'll design one custom drink named for your couple, host, or theme and send a recipe card. It's free with no obligation to book — useful for planning your menu either way.
