BYO Cocktail Partys
Our set packages below come complete with all the necessary service staff, glassware, and barware to provide you with that great Cocktail Queen service for your event. The best bit is you supply the alcohol, mixes and garnishes based on the shopping list we provide you. The below packages are set packages, they can't be changed and have been calculated based on our knowledge of events. If you want to customise your event contact us for a quote or check out the staff hire page to create your own BYO service package.
These packages are where we supply the staff to make the cocktails and YOU SUPPLY THE ALCOHOL
How it Works
1
HOW MANY GUESTS?
Firstly you need to work out how many guests you will be having at your event. The below packages have been designed to assume that all guests are drinking beverages, and come with the correct amount of glassware.
We've heard it plenty of times ... I have 70 people but really only 40 will be drinking, I'll just choose the 20-40 package with one Mixologist. Sure you can do this but don't complain to us if your service is compromised, there is no one to collect and clean glassware and there isn't enough glassware. These packages have been built based on OUR 20+ years experience and knowledge in the industry.

LOCK IT IN EDDY!
To lock in your packages we do require a $350 deposit when you complete the booking form online. We do offer discount when you pay up front in full for selected BYO packages - those ones are highlighted in pink and you can click on them and book immediately
Our staff are well trained, well presented and in high demand. We don't hold dates or staff at all with out a deposit or payment. So if you wanting to book but proscratinating and sit on it for a few weeks don't be dissapointed if your package isn't available. It's first in, first serve!
Make sure you also view our Terms and Conditions before booking so everyone is on the same page.

GO SHOPPING!
The fun part!
Once you have paid your deposit or made payment in full only then will you receive access to our menus. When you purchase a BYO set package you get to choose from the Pick n Mix Menu complimentary. Once you have selected your cocktails we send you a shopping list and that list has everything down to the coffee bean garnish for the espresso martinis and the bags of ice you need to make the cocktails.
You are also sent a "DIY bar setup checklist" at this time so you know what you need to do before our team arrives on the day to setup your bar. And don't worry if you need to add on eskys, bar top tubs, trestle tables you can add these on too.

Staff Ratios
"How may staff do I need?"
These packages are complete bar packages though DO NOT include seated glassware table settings. If you need additional glassware for this please contact us for a quote.
If you are wanting staff to stand at the door upon your guests arrival with trays in hand make sure you have hired plenty of staff. If you are having a wedding reception and want staff attending to tables...make sure you have hired plenty of staff for this also. You need additional staff for floor service. For this type of service check out our staff hire page where you can customise your event based on your service requirements. if you are unsure contact us direct for a quote.
Note we don't take bookings for weddings or events where you only one want one Mixologist for 100 guests... this severly places pressure on the Mixologist and we value our staff to much to place them under this pressure. To ensure the correct ratios contact us for a quote.
Timings
"What is Prep and Pack-down time?"
Prep-Time is the time that your mixologist will dedicate to getting you bar ready for service.
During this time they will undertake the following;
-
Layout glassware
-
Cut up garnishes
-
Lay out equipment and liquor
-
Set up the bar so it flows easily - laying out eskys, tubs, glassware crates.
-
Prepare anything that needs batching.
-
Fill ice buckets with ice for the cocktails to be made
-
Setup a blender area.
-
Familiarizing with rubbish zone for bottles to be removed to.
-
Prepare cocktails or drinks on trays ready for service when guests arrive.
What don't they do...
-
They will not physically set-up or build your bar - this you will be able to do with our bar set up check list you receive when you book. If you have hired an actual mobile bar from us, this is pre-delivered and will be setup by our delivery team on day of delivery.
-
Staff will not 'ice up' all your drinks, unless you have hired additional time for this. Getting wine and beers chilled to an icy level takes time - not half hour nor one hour. And no guest likes warm wine or warm beer. Normally you need 3 hours of placing beers/wine/sparkling on ice before they are ready for service. For large events the load in of your alcohol to the eskys, bar area also takes takes so this has to be factored into also. If you are having a large event and don't want to do the heavy lifting then again you have to pay for this service. We do offer a full bar setup service for an additional cost especially for large events.
The BYO packages above already include the allocated prep time you don't have to worry about working this out. Pack-down time is the time dedicated to turning the bar over to a self service capacity. During this time it will be general clean up of bar area, restocking glasses for clients to help them self, bringing in glasses from floor, restocking bar top self serve tubs.
"My event is over 120 guests do you cater for this?"
Yes of course we do, but larger events become more specialised and depending on the location we quote larger events individually and tailor the staff ratio according to the needs of the client. Our large events are handled through our division of "CQ Events", which includes dedicated specialist event coordinators. CQ Events provides beverage and food catering, styling, creative direction, music supply, marquee and equipment hire and more. Contact Nicole here to discuss your large event here.
Travel Fees
"Why do you charge a travel fee for staff and how much is it?"
Our travel fees are charged as our staff utilise their own cars. You can't expect someone to travel distances for an event and not be compensated for petrol or hours spent in a car. We greatly value our staff so hence fees are applied. Fees are based from our head office staff base in South Melbourne. A once only collective fee is charged for upto 70kms, anything over this is charged per staff person.
0-20kms = $0
21-40kms = $49 - collective fee
41-50kms = $59 - collective fee
51-60kms = $69 - collective fee
61-70kms = $99 - collective fee
71-80kms = $120 - per staff person
81-100kms = $160 - per staff person
101-130kms = $200 - per staff person
A parking fee is applicable per staff person in inner cbd if a parking spot is not allocated. This is $35.00
Delivery Fees
"How much is delivery?"
Our delivery fees are charged as our equipment for some events is pre-delivered and then picked up again the next day. Fees are based from our head office in South Melbourne and Broadbeach, Gold Coast.
0-20kms = $69
21-40kms = $89
41-50kms = $99
51-60kms = $120
61-80kms = $160
Yarra Valley - Lower Mornington Peninsula - Geelong locations equipment will arrive and depart with staff on day though a handling fee will apply for staff to deliver at time of event. This fee is $120.
in some instances for events of 20 or less guests the delivery fee may be waived if the glassware can arrive and depart with the Mixologist on the day - be sure to check with us first.
