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
The Bridal Bar highly recommends Wandering Spirits for your future wedding or event. We had Wandering Spirits trailer and bartending services at our Grand Opening event and it was a smashing success! Kim and Kristen were absolutely wonderful and the guests loved the experience.
I have attended several events that Wandering Spirits was serving at. They not only impress with their professionalism but with their creativity too. It is fun to see the drinks that are specific to the occasion (especially the bride and groom cocktails).
Wandering Spirits provided service for our company Christmas Party. From beginning to end they were wonderful to work with. I had contacted them several weeks before the party and then did not get back with them till it was very last minute as we were still deciding if we were going to have a bar or not.
Kim had been a wonderful help since we decided to add Wandering Spirits as one of our vendors. She’s VERY responsive and if you’re planning a wedding you appreciate prompt and effective communication. She’s also transparent about the transactions and don’t push you to do something against your wishes.
Booking Wandering Spirits for a wedding
Weddings come up for Wandering Spirits — 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 Wandering Spirits
Reviews and the service's own materials mention corporate events at Wandering Spirits — 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.
