Frequently Asked Questions

What types of events do you do?

Any event you can think of! Whether it's your wedding day, birthday bash, or a laid-back backyard gathering, we're here to make your celebration unforgettable.

Are you able to make non-alcoholic (NA) drinks? Is there an additional fee?

We would love to create an NA signature drink for you, or shake up a custom NA cocktail on the fly using the mixers we have on hand! There is no additional fee.

If you’re interested in a mood boosting, NA alternative, try adding a bottle of Functional Spirits to your bar! Since it’s not alcohol we can buy it and charge you the cost of a bottle.

Do you have an auto-gratuity for tipping?

We have a minimum gratuity per bartender. If you allow us to put tip jars out at your event, your guests' tips contribute to the minimum. In rare cases the tip jar does not reach the minimum - then the host is expected to cover the difference.

Because we are a dry-hire bartending service, the host (you) must provide the alcohol. And don't worry - part of our base package is to help you with an alcohol shopping list so you know exactly what to buy!

Who is providing the alcohol?
What is a dry-hire bartending service?

Dry-hire bartending means we provide the bartending service, and you supply the alcohol of your choice. As a dry-hire bartending service, Party Kat helps you save significantly by eliminating the need for a temporary liquor license—provided your event meets these qualifications:

Do you help us with how much alcohol we should buy?

Absolutely! Included in our base package is a customized alcohol shopping list just for you. It outlines in detail how many bottles of what type of alcohol I recommend you should buy for your event.

Do your services include a portable bar that you bring to my event?

Yes! Our Base Package includes 2 standard tables with black tablecloths that we set up at your event. For a more sophisticated look, you can also select our Fancy Portable Bar as an Add-On. See pictures of the two options below.
