BYO Cocktail Party
YOU SUPPLY THE ALCOHOL... WE SUPPLY THE SERVICE, GLASSWARE & BARWARE
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Our most popular service package to date. These packages are where we supply the staff to make the cocktails and serve your drinks, glassware and barware. You simply supply the alcohol. These packages include all the essential cocktail and general glassware for your party. Just follow the 5 steps below for your BYO Party to begin! If you are needing staff for your BYO wedding you need to check out the BYO Wedding Packages here.
Please note: these packages are for partys for bar service only - not floor or table service and not for place-settings such in weddings. If you are wanting floor service please contact us for a custom quote. For BYO weddings with place-settings glassware please refer here.
