Our Fees & Services

We take the same personal approach to every event we organise, whether a private celebration like a wedding, public event like a festival or corporate hire. We always design a package to suit the vision of our clients, deliver a fantastic service and create a memorable experience.

Bar Options & Services

Alcohol Bar

We can offer a range of options to suit different budgets. A bar does not need to be expensive; you can get the party going by paying for welcome drinks and guests are usually happy to pay for their own drinks if they are enjoyable and value for money. Options include:

  • Fully paid bar (paid by host)
  • Part-paid bar (welcome drinks or set limit paid by host, remainder paid by guests buying their own drinks)
  • General bar (host pays deposit and guarantees a minimum spend). Guests pay for all drinks themselves, which can be a great low-cost option for hosts providing your guests like a drink, or two, or three…

  • Your booking fee secures your date in our calendar and is non-refundable. However, if you need to move with more than 8 weeks’ notice that’s fine. With notice less than 8 weeks prior to event, we’ll do everything we can to accommodate
  • If your event cannot go ahead due to Covid-19 Government guidelines, we will always re-book your event

In these cases, 50% of the invoice requires payment at least 8 weeks ahead of the event. This 50% is non-refundable but it is transferrable to a different date (minimum 4 weeks’ notice or zero notice if relates to Covid-19 restrictions).
