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
As soon as I saw the Chug-a-Lug Wagon online, I knew we had to have it at our wedding this spring- it's such a fun alternative to a traditional bar service! Theresa was so wonderful and accommodating- we couldn't have asked for better folks to work with!
After a lot of research on how' we'd approach our beverage service for our nearly 200 person event we fell upon Chug-a-Lug. And by all measures we're glad we did. From start to finish their management and operations specialist made us feel comfortable, confident, and overall at ease with our plan.
When planning our son's rehearsal dinner things became a bit complicated the week of the wedding with the venue. We were initially told we could not serve beer & wine to being told we could serve but needed a TIPS certified bartender that carried liability insurance.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We hired Chug-a-Lug for our wedding and could not have been happier! From start to finish, their team was professional, organized, and incredibly easy to work with. The bartenders were friendly, quick, and kept the energy up all night — our guests were raving about how fun and efficient the bar service was.
Booking Chug-a-Lug Wagon for a wedding
Weddings come up for Chug-a-Lug Wagon — 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.

Corporate events with Chug-a-Lug Wagon
Reviews and the service's own materials mention corporate events at Chug-a-Lug Wagon — holiday parties, launches, client mixers. For office events, three things are worth settling on the first call: whether they carry the liquor liability insurance your building or venue requires, whether they can run a mocktail or zero-proof menu alongside the bar, and how invoicing works if your company needs a W-9 and net-30 terms.
