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
Dannon was amazing and easy to work with. We are from Oklahoma so I was really relying on her for best judgement and drink selection. She made things stress free for our bar needs! She is so flexible and came up with fun ideas for our wedding. We booked the piaggio cart and it was a huge hit!
We met Dannon a year ago while planning our destination wedding in Navarre. She bartended our wedding on 3.17.24 and far exceeded any expectation. The drinks were delicious and her bar setup was adorable but Dannon did far more for us. She took the time to settle my (now) wife prior to the ceremony.
Tap the Coast did a remarkable job for an event we had at the store. Every single interaction from the very start was clear, professional, and courteous. We absolutely recommend this service for anyone who wants peace of mind for the beverage aspect of your gathering.
We had an amazing experience with Tap the Coast for our wedding! From the very beginning, Dannon was so communicative throughout the entire planning process and made sure we had everything we needed. They really paid attention to every detail and made the whole experience feel seamless and stress-free.
Booking Tap the Coast for a wedding
Weddings come up for Tap the Coast — 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 Tap the Coast
Reviews and the service's own materials mention corporate events at Tap the Coast — 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.
