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 cannot thank Melanie and her team enough! Our event went so perfectly and smoothly thanks to this team! Food was served so quickly and there was never a line for the bar even though we had 100 guests! Melanie's level of correspondence cannot be beat!
I cannot say how wonderful and great Melanie was for all my needs. I reached out to her to hire MK Bartending for an event to have bartenders and Melanie went above and beyond! This was for a non-profit event and Melanie's assistance leading up to the event was crucial.
I am still blown away and in awe of the service Melanie and her team provided!!!!!!! Till date, my guests are still talking about the impeccable service Melanie and her team provided. I was honestly overwhelmed (in a very good way) as I watched them the entire night.
Being a COVID bride was beyond rough, but people like Melanie with MK Bartending and Event Services truly made our wedding experience ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! One of the last things we had planned was the bartenders and alcohol for our big day... it just completely slipped from our mind!
Booking MK Bartending and Event Services for a wedding
Weddings come up for MK Bartending and Event Services — 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.
