Hunter was fantastic helping out at our cocktail party. He had great intuition about what needed to be done when, took initiative, and worked non stop, then cleaned up and left the place spotless. He was also a lovely person to have at the party, being very friendly and professional. We all said we would not hesitate to use him again.

Uddit was wonderful and extremely professional. He rang prior to my event to confirm all details and offered to bring anything that we needed. On the evening he and Sohana were amazing. They were punctual and lovely with my guests. They were happy to help in any way possible to make my party a success. I highly recommend Uddit for any event you need assistance with.

Mitchell and his partner were absolutely great at our wedding today. We were running a bit late and when they arrived I literally gave them a 3 minute overview of what we wanted and left them to it. They unloaded our cars, setup the bar and started drinks service and worked their guts out for 3.5 hours solid. Then when we had to pack up they did a solid job of the tidy up and packing as well. We were really happy with their efforts and they really made our day so much more enjoyable.

What do bartending services include?
From martinis to cosmopolitans, you can rely on bartenders to shake things up. Alcoholic drinks are always an excellent addition to the menu for any occasion. You can even have someone cater cocktails for a fancier affair. Here are some services you can get when hiring bar staff:
Full-service bartending
Depending on the occasion, you can hire a full bartending service. They offer different packages depending on the size of your event. Complete services include the bartenders, barbacks, mixing, drinks, and serving equipment. Some services also have separate packages available if you want to provide the alcohol for your event. Some go to the lengths to plan a special menu of drinks for the occasion. Taskers will be in charge of setting up the bar, serving the drinks, and even cleaning up afterwards.
Planning the menu
You can add flair to any hospitality service with a customised menu. It is a good idea to hire someone who has attention to detail. Some cocktail bartenders for hire include menu planning to their services. This may consist of planning sessions and pre-event tasting. They can also customise menus based on speciality drinks, fresh and seasonal ingredients, and the theme of an event.
Choosing a mobile bar
A mobile bartender brings the party to any venue with a bar on wheels. You can have it set up at any location, like hotel function rooms or your backyard. You have the option to customise its look depending on the theme. It is an efficient option because of the many elements present on the bar. The panel bars and folding shelves of a mobile bar make it easier to serve guests their favourite cocktails during private events.
Mixing speciality cocktails and drinks
When hiring a cocktail bartender, you are usually after their skills and speciality drinks. You may need to provide the spirits, wine, and beer. You may also need to provide equipment for them although some choose to bring their own equipment. Professionals may speak with you in advance to advise you on what drinks to provide. It is essential to communicate what drinks you want to be served during your party or corporate event.

Alderley QLD, Australia
16th Jul 2024
I'm looking for a enthusiastic and fun bartender to make cocktails/drinks for our guests for my husband's 30th Birthday. I'd love to plan a few cocktails/drinks (us providing the alcohol from a list) and the bartender providing the glassware, shakers, garnishes etc. and if we can source a cheap bar maybe? The event is Sat 14th Sep at our house at Alderley, most like 25 people for an afternoon start probably 5pm and I'd probably want you there for 4-6 hours. Would love to know more :)


Carlos was an absolute star! He took my husband's 30th Birthday Party at our home to the next level. We had a pre-event call to chat details, he customised our cocktails, provided a purchase list, he did a site visit and on the day, he was a hit! He arrived early to prep the fresh fruit, alcohol, set up his bar and worked in with our setup. He was so considerate, great to chat to and was like having a friend there. A MUST for your next event!
