Everybody probably knows someone who can open cans, pour a beer and make a rum and coke, but there are many benefits to hiring us as your professional bartenders!

What about guests that don’t drink alcohol?

We can offer a Libation Station; which includes 2 large dispensers of 1 flavored water and 1 juice/punch of your choice.

We also can do our Feature Cocktail Add-On as a Mocktail instead!

Aside from these options, whether you are in a Basic or Elite Package; each comes with full event and menu consultation - we will make sure your alcohol-free guests feel taken care of fully.

How does liquor licensing work?

BC liquor laws do not allow for us to apply for a Special Event Permit for you unfortunately. However, sometimes it may not be needed; it depends on your venue - if it’s a private home then no permit is needed! Also under the BC liquor laws, we are not allowed to purchase liquor for your event. We do however offer Alcohol Purchasing Support in every Service Package option.

Our mission is to make sure you are fully set up and supported for your event so you don’t have any extra unnecessary stresses.
