The process
We work to your timings. If things run behind, tell us and we’ll adjust the start of service where we can. A late-September party in Petteridge loses the light at about 7:00pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. A late-May event keeps its daylight until about 8:50pm.
- Send us the date, venue and numbers.
- We talk through licensing with you.
- You choose the drinks with us.
- Our bar staff serve your guests at the agreed times.
- We clear the bar at the end.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Give us a contact for the day
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
