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
Thank you so much, Nikhil, for your kindness and for taking such great care of our family and friends! Everyone absolutely loved the drinks, and having a bartending service truly elevated the entire party. Nikhil is truly such a gem, and I cannot recommend his business enough.
I had the pleasure of working with Nikhil Mirchandani, Owner and Mixologist of Mix & Mingle Bartending, for our Magic of Partnership event, and I can’t recommend him highly enough.
I can’t say enough great things about Mix & Mingle. We hired Nikhil and his team for our wedding on 4/11/26 in La Jolla, and they were phenomenal. They were incredibly easy to work with, responsive, and reasonably priced. On the day of the wedding, they were punctual and kept the drinks flowing all night.
We hired Mix and Mingle to bartend my daughter’s wedding. Nikhil was very professional from day 1! I asked A LOT of questions along the way and he responded promptly with all of the answers. Nikhil was able to give me a shopping list early, so I could purchase what was needed along the way instead of all at once.
Booking Mix & Mingle Bartending for a wedding
Weddings come up for Mix & Mingle 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.

Corporate events with Mix & Mingle Bartending
Reviews and the service's own materials mention corporate events at Mix & Mingle Bartending — 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.
