FAQs
Do you sell or provide alcohol? Due to North Carolina licensing, we cannot provide or sell you alcohol. We serve alcohol that is supplied by the event organizer or a 3rd party. We can absolutely help you calculate the amount based on hours of service and how many guests you expect, and can provide a detailed shopping list to help you prepare for your event.
What do you provide? We provide all disposable drinkware, napkins, and straws. We arrive early to set up for each event. BYOBartender exceeds our clients expectations by setting the bar high.
How many bartenders will I need? For a beer and wine bar, we'd recommend one bartender per 90 guests as beers are opened quickly and wines are poured fast. This may result in a small line at the very beginning of the event, but smooth sailing from then on. If you are opting for a limited bar with signature drinks, one bartender per 75 guests is sufficient to make everything run smoothly, although depending on the difficulty of the signature drinks, along with the time it takes to make them, it might be good to add another bartender or barback. If you are working with a full bar, we would recommend one bartender per 80 guests to accommodate everyone's individual requests. Yes, there may be some who order just beer or wine, but others will take a few minutes to decide. While this is the rule of thumb, there are a few more factors that come into play when deciding how many bartenders you will need. We are happy to discuss your options. Just give us a call at 704-906-6426 or email us.
What kind of events do you provide experienced bartenders for? You can hire our bartenders for all kinds of events from private parties to weddings. Our staff is proud to attend every type of event. No matter what you would like to celebrate, we want to make sure your event will be unforgettable!
What does the bartender and the barback do? The bartender will focus on serving your guests -- whether that is cocktails, beer, wine, or other drinks. The barback usually helps out behind the bar where needed, such as restocking drinks, opening bottles, or even serving customers simple things like beer, wine, or soft drinks if needed.
Do you offer any packages? All of our services and offers are booked a la carte so you can truly customize what you are looking for. We do not offer any bartending packages as every event is unique.
What if I don't want the bartender to set up a tip jar? Some hosts don't want their guests to feel obliged to tip so they don't want the bartender to set up a tip jar. In these cases, the host may choose to provide the gratuity. In this case, please just select "No Tip Jar" in your quote request.
My venue requires a walk through. Do you offer that? We have worked with many venues in North Carolina, but we do occasionally come across a venue we have not previously worked at. If your venue requires a vendor walk-through, we can definitely make that happen for you. Please keep in mind that additional fees may be associated with this, depending on location. We recommend double-checking with your venue beforehand if this is absolutely necessary because, more often than not, your staff is not assigned yet, so the person doing the walk-through will most likely be one of our administration staff and not the staff that will be working at your event.
Are you insured? Yes, we carry both general and liquor liability insurance.
How far do you travel? We are based in Denver, NC, and will travel up to 40 miles. Need us to travel farther? Just let us know!
