Catering Service - Bar Service
Consumption Bar
The bartenders keep a running tab and you pay the final bill at the end of the evening, based on how much your guests drank. A good idea if your guests are light drinkers
Open Bar
You pay a flat fee for your guests to drink all night
Cash Bar
Your guests pay for their own drinks
Premium Brands
Top-of-the-line liquors. You’ll pay more if you stock the bar with these “name” brands instead of cheaper, generic house brands
Poured Drinks
East-to-make drinks—the ones that require only one ingredient and aren’t shaken or stirred
Mixed Drinks
Drinks that require more than one ingredient or special mixing equipment. Providing them at your reception could raise the bar tab
