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
Kate with Roaming Refreshments is Rapid City’s new premiere traveling bartender for every occasion! Kate and her team bring the bar, their award-winning smiles, and a little martini shaker action (even mocktails get their minute in the cocktail shaker and are garnished exquisitely!).
Absolutely thrilled with our experience at Roaming Refreshments! Kate came out for the Grand Opening of my business & her bar trailer was the perfect touch! Rain/snow/cold and all! The mojitos were the highlight of the event—refreshing, flavorful, and perfectly crafted.
We had roaming refreshments at our wedding! Kyler and Kate took our wedding to a whole other level!! First off they are the kindest people and they are such hard workers. My guests were coming up to me and complimenting how wonderful of a job they were doing, and how they loved their bar trailer.
Kate has been such a joy to work with. I have booked Roaming Refreshments for 2 parties (one serving over 200 cocktails).Her knowledge of bartending and non-alcoholic and alcoholic recipes are perfect for any party occasion. Her staff alike, Kate always keeps her bar area cleanly and stylish.
Booking Roaming Refreshments for a wedding
Weddings come up for Roaming Refreshments — 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 Roaming Refreshments
Reviews and the service's own materials mention corporate events at Roaming Refreshments — 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.
