Working with your venue
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
About our Mexican bar hire in South Alkham
A Mexican drinks bar brings margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas to your event, with bar staff to serve your guests. It works on its own or alongside our food. At work celebrations and wedding receptions and evening parties, we’ll put together a menu of aguas frescas, soft drinks and agua de jamaica.
In a rural spot like South Alkham, drinks can be served from our truck or trailer in a garden, field or by a marquee, given access. We will check the licensing with you. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.
What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we will adjust where we can. A late-September party in South Alkham loses the light at about 7:00pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. A late-May event keeps its daylight until about 8:45pm.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and what you’d like to serve.
- Together we check how alcohol will be licensed at your event.
- We suggest a drinks list and send a quote.
- On the day we set up the bar and our bar staff serve your guests.
- After service, we clear the bar away.
