Frequently asked questions.

Q: “Why should I hire a bartender for my event?”

Top 3 reasons to hire a professional bartender for your party:

1) Expertise. You get the benefit of having someone who’s EXPERIENCED in the field, who has put the time in perfecting their craft & learning the science behind what makes a good cocktail. The proof is in the pudding!

2) Liability. You want someone who is responsible & knows the applicable liquor laws in the state of Colorado & has the proper knowledge, practice and certifications, to serve your guests in a responsible manner. The last thing you want is one person’s bad decision ruining the party.

3) One less thing for you to worry about- so you can ACTUALLY ENJOY your party!

Q: “Why should I hire YOU?”

All of our bartenders have put in the time, period. We only hire the best in the industry, that we’ve worked with personally. These are the people we’d trust to bartend our own parties. Contrary to popular belief, becoming a great bartender isn’t something that happens overnight. Anyone can pop a beer or mix up some vodka sodas, but creating a truly delicious experience for your guests is something that can only be learned with time, practice, and dedication to mastering your craft. With us, you’re not only getting pro-level service, but fresh juices, handcrafted syrups, and attention to detail. Trust us, it makes a difference.

Q: “Do you sell alcohol?”

Short answer: NO.

Colorado liquor laws prevent us from selling alcohol or purchasing alcohol for an event. We are providing a service, as well as our expertise. Though we CAN help every step of the way with menu creation, ordering amounts, and even pick up your order for you.

Q: “Can *I* sell alcohol at my event?”

Again - without a liquor license, no. Trust us, it’s not worth running afoul of the law.

Q: “Do you travel to _____?”

We’ll travel pretty much anywhere. We charge a travel fee of .50/mile for anywhere 30+ miles outside of Fort Collins, CO to cover gas (& maybe a lil snack).

Q: “My wedding venue is asking that you add them to your insurance policy. Is that possible?”

Absolutely. We carry a $2M Liability Insurance policy & can add the venue as an additional insured, no problem.

Q: “I’ve decided to book, now what?”

We’ll schedule a phone consultation and go over a few details. There is a $250 retainer fee to reserve the date that is non-refundable, but will go towards the final balance. Once the details are hammered out we’ll send over the invoice & service contract— the minute those are signed & the retainer is paid we’ll get to work to bring your vision to life! We’ll send over any proofs/mockups of custom menus for your approval, and make any necessary tweaks or adjustments. We’ll create a shopping list for you, as well as make a plan to get the alcohol to the event if necessary. We’ll check in again 7 days prior to your event— to confirm the number of guests & make sure everything is on track, as well as make any last-minute changes. The day of your event, we will arrive 1-2 hours early for your event to make sure everything is perfect.

Q; “What will your bartenders wear?”

We don’t like uniforms.. no one likes uniforms. However, we know this is your special day and will dress accordingly— in black business casual attire, unless specified otherwise.

Q: “What about tips?”

We’re all trying to make a buck… and we like to take care of our people. Bartenders will have a discreet tip jar and QR code. If you don’t want a tip jar out, you have the option to “buy the tip jar” & a 20% service fee will be added to your invoice. Bartenders will directly receive 100% of tips.

Q: “We’re all having so much fun - can your bartender(s) stay longer than we agreed to?”

That’s fine, but entirely up to them. Any additional hours will be billed at $50/hour, per bartender.

Q: “What forms of payment do you accept?”

We accept all major credit cards, Paypal, Square payments, & ApplePay.

Q: “What happens if I need to cancel / reschedule?”

We understand that life happens. All we ask is that you keep us in the loop & let us know ASAP.

Cancellations with 30 days’ notice will be given a full refund, minus the $250 retainer fee.

If you need to reschedule & we are not available on that date, we’ll do our best to put you in touch with someone who we trust.
