2009 - Your Wedding Year

Posted by possi1 on January 22, 2009 at 3:13 PM Comments comments (0)

Hi there!

Winter is still here - it's February still but I'll bet you're planning your spring or summer wedding as I speak!

Remember to look at alleviating your guests from the tedious job of watching your bar during your reception. They want to party too!

The best way for you to make your money back from the liquor purchases and for your guests to enjoy your special day, is to hire professionals to tend your bar!

Of all the $1,000's of dollars you will spend on the most special day of your life, the minimal bartending fee will be the best decision you make! Enjoy your fun-filled reception and dance and let pros take care of serving your guests!

Beware of one man shows!

It may be tempting to hire a person advertising their services for an hourly wage, after all wedding costs are very high these days but beware. The old adage "You get what you pay for" definitely applies here.

There is a certain amount of finesse and professional diplomacy required to tending bar for your family members and friends. There is an unspoken code of ethics that requires a proper background in bar service that one would not obtain having worked only in a bar/pub atmosphere.

Don't ruin your special day by hiring the wrong person for the right money!

Special Drinks before supper starts!

A nice idea for your wedding reception!

At a recent wedding we worked, we offered caesars from the start time (5:00) to the shut-down for speeches (7:00) and such. It went over very well.

Our service brought the ingredients necessary to offer that special drink. The vodka and clamato were supplied by the wedding party, the lemons, celery, celery salt & rimmer dish, as well as the worchestershire & tobasco would be offered by us!

The same goes for paralyzers, black or white russians, cuba libra, etc. As long as you have the alcohol necessary to blend the drink, we'll supply the extras!

That is a great bonus to your guests and towards a more exciting selection of drinks.

If you think that the drink is worth more than a regular loonie or toonie ticket - you can make the special drink a two-ticket drink for that specific time limit.

Any suggestions are welcomed by those planning to offer bar service at their supper and wedding reception.
