Bittersweet Bar Service knows every event is different and unique. Based on that, we offer two different types of pricing. We offer an all-inclusive per person package rate where we aim to do EVERYTHING. These packages are for five hours of quality service throughout your event, plus set up and tear down. We will discuss and plan a bar menu and procure and transport all beverages along with ice, cups, straws, napkins & fruit garnishes!

For those who like a little more control over their event, we offer our straight labor rate. This is when two TIPS certified and insured bartenders provide quality service for your event.
