Booking and availability

We recommend booking at least 2–3 months in advance for weddings and popular dates, especially during peak seasons. Last‑minute bookings may be possible depending on availability.

A booking is confirmed once you receive a written confirmation and quote from us (via email or contract). At that point a deposit is usually required to secure your date.

Yes. We provide mobile bar and mixologist services across London and the wider UK, subject to travel and availability. Please let us know your venue location when you enquire.

Pricing and payment

Our pricing depends on:

  • Type of service (cocktail, wine‑focused, beer‑centric, etc.)

  • Number of guests

  • Duration of service

  • Travel distance

Yes, we usually require a non‑refundable deposit at the time of booking to secure your date. The deposit amount will be specified in your quote.

The remaining balance is typically due before the event, as stated in your booking confirmation. We will let you know the exact deadline in your quote.

Cancellations and changes

Yes, but our cancellation and change policy depends on timing:

  • Cancellation within 7 days of the event: deposit is non‑refundable and full balance may be payable.

  • Cancellation more than 7 days before: deposit may be non‑refundable, but full balance is not payable; exact terms depend on your written quote.

Please contact us as early as possible if you need to change or cancel your booking.

We will try to accommodate a new date at our discretion, subject to availability. Your deposit may be transferred to the new date, and additional fees may apply if requirements change.
