I'm looking for two bartenders for my wedding and would prefer a company that could also possibly provide mixers. Any recommendations? Also, could you give me an idea of price? TIA!

    I used Wildwood Catering for my May wedding and loved them! I have a review in my bio (link in sig).

    thanks so much. do they just do the service? we are wanting to provide our own alcohol and just hire the bartenders.

    also, did you ever hear from rebekah? i signed a contract with her a month ago just for bouquets and am now a bit worried. thanks!

    Sorry I just saw this part. Honestly I'm not sure. I know you can buy bartending packages from them with mixers, ice, cups, napkins, etc (which is what we did) but ours also included alcohol. I'm not sure how it works without alcohol but I highly recommend them so I would definitely encourage you to check in to it!

    Wildwood will do just beverages, mixers, set ups, etc. and let you purchase your own alcohol. Although, they have said that having them do the alcohol may not necessarily cost you as much as you think because they purchase all of the liquor at wholesale (they also run Fion pubs) and have a buy back policy that they'll buy back anything that is unopened & unchilled. They'll also rent you glassware for $0.65 each. We're meeting with them to discuss both options. I've also checked into using Good Libations because the pricing on their website sounds good. I don't know if anyone has used them though. I've also emailed back and forth with a couple of other bartenders, but we want to go with someone who provides all the accessories as well as bartending service.
