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
We had Tin Can Mobile bar serve alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks at our daughters grad party at our house in June and they did a fabulous job! They were amazing with communicating with us prior to our event to make sure everything was perfect!
Melanie and Brandon are phenomenal to work with. We hired Tin Can Mobile Bar to serve crafted coffee drinks, energy drinks and lemonade at our son's graduation party and everything was perfect. We received so many compliments on the quality and taste of the drinks and the service as well.
This is the cutest little mobile bar. I used them for a “just because” party I was throwing to get all my friends together. They showed up on time, were very accommodating, very friendly, and just a joy to have at the party. So glad I decided to add the Tin Can Mobile Bar as part of the overall celebration experience.
Melanie and Brandon were absolute professionals from start to finish at my event. Melanie was incredibly communicative, had everything ready to go upon arrival, and is so personable and kind.
Booking Tin Can Mobile Bar for a wedding
Weddings come up for Tin Can Mobile Bar — 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 Tin Can Mobile Bar
Reviews and the service's own materials mention corporate events at Tin Can Mobile Bar — 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.
