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
March 2020 Wedding If you are on the edge about who to choose for your special day/event, look no further. Planning a wedding in Charleston, SC was not easy; everyone wants your business and your money, but no one knows how to be personal and communicative.
My daughter's wedding reception was an incredible success. Eric and his people were absolutely delightful and willing to go above and beyond what anyone would expect a bar service to do. They set up, carried, helped other folks with their setups, kept track of timing....
I have worked with Carolina Cocktails on multiple events for very important clients to our business. Each time, Eric has gone above and beyond to provide excellent service. His prices are well under other companies in the area, and the service provided far exceeds nearly every other company that I have worked with.
I absolutely loved working with Eric and the whole team at "Carolina Cocktails!" They made planning this aspect of our wedding so easy & pain free! Eric offered wonderful suggestions and worked with us to make sure we had the best experience. "Carolina Cocktails" sure knows how to throw a good party!
Booking Carolina Cocktails for a wedding
Weddings come up for Carolina Cocktails — 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.
