Packages start at $650 for the Essential Mobile Bar (1 bartender, up to 50 guests, 4 hours of service), with the Signature Cocktail Package starting at $1,050 and adding 2 custom cocktails, 1 mocktail, fresh-pressed juices, house-made syrups, and a custom drink menu. Most clients invest between $650 and $3,000 depending on guest count, hours, and add-ons.
