Plan your event

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.

A directory can't see anyone's calendar — availability, travel fees, and minimums always come from the bartender directly.

From the reviews

Spirit Forward Cocktail catering is the way to go if you want to impress your friends, co-workers or whatever your occasion might be. Dan and his team are very professional and basically bring everything if not more than what a standard bar can offer.

★★★★★ — Michael, May 2025

I had a phenomenal experience working with Dan and his team! My business was celebrating 10 years and we threw a party of about 100 people. I assumed hiring a bartender just meant two basic cocktails....but that's absolutely not the case with Spirit Forward.

★★★★★ — Ivy, Aug 2023

I am obsessed with this catering service, especially Dan. Dan bartended my wedding this past weekend and our guests can't stop talking about how unique and special it made the reception. He was so professional, fun, polite, and patient with each guest.

★★★★★ — Emily, Apr 2021

Spirit Forward did an AMAZING job at our corporate event. I cannot recommend Dan and his team enough. They crafted personalized cocktails for our specific event which was such a thoughtful touch. The service was exceptional and made the entire event planning process so easy.

Booking Spirit Forward for a wedding

Weddings come up for Spirit Forward — 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.
