David F. says, "Gracie was absolutely incredible to work with. They both were, actually! My main point of contact was Gracie and she was helpful, responsive, and sweet throughout the process. I reached out to her because I needed a bar/bartender for a surprise 30th birthday party/surprise engagement for my then-longtime girlfriend (P.S she said YES!). The moment we began communicating, I knew I had chosen the right team to help me bring this part of the surprise event together. The drinks were amazing and I have had multiple friends from that night tell me how much they loved the drinks. I'm not much of a drinker myself but I was still blown away by how expertly crafted each cocktail was. Also, Gracie's vibe is inviting, helpful, and extremely ON IT. She was very helpful in the planning stages of my initial reachout, helping me find the right cocktails for the event. The bar setup was thoughtfully put together, using pictures of my gf and I and she even made a special drink called "She Said Yes!" for us that was handed out the moment after the proposal. It was perfect. And now...a wedding to plan 🙌😉 We'll definitely be reaching out again. Thank you."See more

Bartending

  • Serves San Antonio, TX
Meghan R. says, "I recently had the pleasure of experiencing The Lush Hut’s mobile bartending service at a friend’s wedding, and it was nothing short of exceptional. As a Veteran-Owned Business, they bring a level of professionalism and dedication that truly sets them apart. Every cocktail was a masterpiece, perfectly blended and presented with a flair that added to the event’s elegance. The team, led by Xavier and Katie Rosario, was not only skilled but also incredibly friendly and accommodating, ensuring each guest felt special. Their ethos of creating memorable moments one sip at a time was evident in their attention to detail and their commitment to quality and innovation. I highly recommend The Lush Hut for any event where you desire a touch of sophistication, fun, and unforgettable experiences. They truly exceed expectations and leave a lasting impression."See more

FAQs

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

How much does it cost to hire a bartender for a private party?

Hiring a bartender for a private party typically costs between $270 and $390 in total. On an hourly basis, expect to pay at least $40 to $60 per hour, as well as a flat fee. How much you’ll pay, however, depends on the time of year or day, the size of the party and other factors. Get in touch with a few bartenders near you and request a free estimate — it’s the only way to get an accurate idea of how much private bartending services will cost you.

Check out “How much does it cost to hire a bartender?” to learn more about the cost factors.

Do bartenders need to be licensed?

Certain counties, cities and states may require licensing. Check your local government’s regulations before starting your search.

In many cases, you might want to choose a bartender who has a license and/or certification. If you’re considering hiring a bartender for an upcoming event or a special occasional, check their online profiles to find out what credentials they have. If you can’t find the information online, don’t hesitate to ask them directly when requesting to receive free estimates.

How do I find a good bartender?

Put some time on your calendar to research and compare top-rated bartenders near you online. Start by looking at their ratings and services. For example, some bartending services will provide a waitstaff, glassware, ice, coolers, food and more.

Next, look at their photos of past events and read the customer reviews. Find feedback on the bartenders’ services. Did they offer fair pricing? Did they show up on time to set up? Did they bring all of the appropriate drinks, cups, supplies and decorations? Did they interact politely with the party guests and provide a pleasant overall experience? And did they do the agreed-upon cleanup afterward?

Narrow down your top choices, and start contacting the bartenders. Ask for cost estimates for your event, and tell them how many people will be attending, what type of event it is and what services you require. You should also ask them questions about their experience.

Bartenders may need a license in your state, county or city to work at a private party. Make sure they’re properly certified before you hire anyone.
