Choose the birthday service by what you want taken off your hands. If you have a suitable serving area and will buy the ingredients, staff-only cocktail maker hire can fit; if you want the agreed ingredients supplied too, compare the cocktail packages.
Keep the host at the party, not behind the bar
Start with the real guest count, address and serving hours. Think about the busiest moment: arrivals, a pause for food or guests returning after speeches can all bring a round of orders together.
Choose drinks from the existing menu and confirm whether the party needs a physical mobile bar or can use the available space. If entertainment around the bar matters, flair is a separate service choice to discuss. The right option is the one that covers the actual work, with ingredients, glassware and ice clearly assigned before the birthday arrives.
- Decide whether you want to buy the ingredients or have them supplied.
- Plan the setup and team around the actual party and guest count.
