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
Hire a Host are simply fantastic. I worked with Hire a Host for my wedding (October 2018), and Katie was my event planner. She is an excellent listener, hearing my vision and grounding me in how we would bring it to life with thoughtful and clear suggestions.
Hire a Host was the best choice we made for our event, never having used a service like this before. The staff was prompt to the venue, warm and personable, professionally dressed and very easy to work with during the reception.
We had a fantastics experience with Hire a Host and I cannot recommend them highly enough! We actually reached out to them last minute to see if they could provide a host to help with my daughter's HS graduation party - and they were able to find a host that could help out last minute! Our host, Julie, was fantastic.
Hire a Host is simply amazing! We had an outstanding experience in using them to host our daughter's wedding. We served food from Broder's and Hire a Host was recommended by them for which we are so grateful. Kristi was our coordinator and she is a miracle worker. So kind, responsive, professional and creative...
Booking Hire a Host for a wedding
Weddings come up for Hire a Host — 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 Hire a Host
Reviews and the service's own materials mention corporate events at Hire a Host — 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.
