Booking basics
Mobile bartenders book by the date, not the walk-in — popular Saturdays (especially May–October) go months out, so inquire early with your date, venue, guest count, and whether you want a full package or dry hire. Most will hold a date with a deposit and a signed agreement.

From the reviews
I am the owner of Navi Coordination, a wedding coordination company. I had the pleasure to work with Bourbons and Brews on the wedding of a mutual client in August 2025. Bourbons and Brews Bartending was a fantastic choice for my client's wedding bar services and beverages.
We hired Heather and her team for a large event, and they absolutely exceeded our expectations! From start to finish, they were professional, friendly, and incredibly skilled. Not only did they craft delicious cocktails with precision, but they also kept the bar running smoothly, even with a big crowd.
Bourbon's and Brews went above and beyond for our wedding yesterday. We were served at our sweetheart table and even got to skip the line, which we both enjoyed a lot.
Heather and her team at Bourbons & Brews handled the bartending for the open bar for our cocktail hour and I cannot say enough great things about working with them. From stages of planning to wedding day, everything was easy and done well. Heather was great to work with and helped ensure our permits were in order, too.
Booking Bourbons and Brews Bartending for a wedding
Weddings come up for Bourbons and Brews Bartending — confirmed on their own site, so they'll know the rhythm of the day: cocktail hour hits all at once, then the bar settles into a steady hum until the last dance. Two numbers get your quote right. First, the staffing math: the standard rule is one bartender per 50–75 guests — so a 150-guest wedding usually means two to three bartenders, and going thin here is the classic cocktail-hour line mistake. Second, drinks per guest: plan on roughly two drinks in the first hour and one per hour after; a dry-hire bartender can turn that into an exact shopping list for your headcount so nothing runs out and nothing goes back to the store.
