Two bartenders are included in venue rental.  A third bartender is required for events with over 200 guests, and a fourth bartender is required for events with over 300 guests. If needed, an additional Bartender is $250.
​An optional portable bar is $500 (inclusive of bartender.)   
             
​Bar minimum on weekends and holidays is $2500, and an industry standard 18% bartender gratuity added for all hosted items.
​
Total invoice for bar services are paid at the end of the event as the invoice is based on consumption. 

Details of your bar service will be finalized two weeks prior to the event.
