Anahlynn R. says, "All Knight Cocktails KILLED it at our wedding! They took our vision seriously and made it exactly how we wanted. They went above and beyond with details we didn’t even know would be added. They designed our cocktail menu (one less thing I had to worry about) and even included our engagement photo to be displayed that we got to keep. The kids loved the spider man sticker they received with their “Spidey” mocktail. The guests LOVED the strawberry soju cocktail, it was a hit! They were patient in planning and designing, although there were some hiccups during communication at the beginning, they were understanding through it all. I would 10000% recommend to anyone looking to hire bartenders for their event. These guys will take it to the next level! Thank you again!!! 💖"See more

From start to finish, they were nothing short of phenomenal. First off, their punctuality was impressive. They showed up right on time, ready to roll up their sleeves and get to work. And let me tell you, they were not just bartenders – they were the life of the party! Their friendliness and energy brought a fantastic vibe that everyone enjoyed. These guys really know their drinks! They whipped up an amazing variety of cocktails that had everyone raving. It was clear they are true professionals who take pride in their craft. The way they interacted with my guests, making recommendations and ensuring everyone was having a great time, was just the cherry on top. I can't express enough how impressed I was with their hard work and dedication. It felt like I had a personal team of mixologists at my party, taking care of everything so I could relax and enjoy the celebration. If you’re planning an event and want to take it to the next level, do yourself a favor and book Social Mix Bartending Service – you’ll be glad you did!

FAQs

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

How much does it cost to hire a bartender for a private party?

Hiring a bartender for a private party typically costs between $270 and $390 in total. On an hourly basis, expect to pay at least $40 to $60 per hour, as well as a flat fee. How much you’ll pay, however, depends on the time of year or day, the size of the party and other factors. Get in touch with a few bartenders near you and request a free estimate — it’s the only way to get an accurate idea of how much private bartending services will cost you.

Check out “How much does it cost to hire a bartender?” to learn more about the cost factors.

Do bartenders need to be licensed?

Certain counties, cities and states may require licensing. Check your local government’s regulations before starting your search.

In many cases, you might want to choose a bartender who has a license and/or certification. If you’re considering hiring a bartender for an upcoming event or a special occasional, check their online profiles to find out what credentials they have. If you can’t find the information online, don’t hesitate to ask them directly when requesting to receive free estimates.

How do I find a good bartender?

Put some time on your calendar to research and compare top-rated bartenders near you online. Start by looking at their ratings and services. For example, some bartending services will provide a waitstaff, glassware, ice, coolers, food and more.

Next, look at their photos of past events and read the customer reviews. Find feedback on the bartenders’ services. Did they offer fair pricing? Did they show up on time to set up? Did they bring all of the appropriate drinks, cups, supplies and decorations? Did they interact politely with the party guests and provide a pleasant overall experience? And did they do the agreed-upon cleanup afterward?

Narrow down your top choices, and start contacting the bartenders. Ask for cost estimates for your event, and tell them how many people will be attending, what type of event it is and what services you require. You should also ask them questions about their experience.

Bartenders may need a license in your state, county or city to work at a private party. Make sure they’re properly certified before you hire anyone.
