Bar Service

There are 3 components to all event bar services.

1. THE ALCOHOL: A lot of catering companies and venues have minimums on alcohol, however, we do not. HJC provides everything from barware to ice, as well as all mixers and sodas. The only thing the client has to provide is the alcohol itself.

We are not licensed to sell alcohol, we only serve it. Don't worry! We will help you with logistics concerning the amount needed to be purchased.

2. THE BAR SET-UP: There are two standard types of bar set ups:

BEER & WINE: The following is what is included to support a standard beer & wine bar:

• Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, sweet tea and water
• Glassware for wine, beer, and non-alcoholic beverages
• Ice-to chill beverages and for drinks
• Bar tools for opening wine and beer
• Lexans lined with white linen for icing beer and wine
• Cocktail napkins

FULL BAR: The following is what is included to support a standard full bar:

• Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, ginger ale, club soda, and tonic water
• Orange juice, and cranberry juice
• Lemons and limes
• Sweet tea and water
• Bar tools for opening wine and beer
• Lexans lined with white linen for icing beer and wine
• Glassware for wine, beer, mixed drink, and non-alcoholic beverages
• Ice-to chill beverages and for drinks
• Cocktail napkins
• Stirrers

3. BARTENDER SERVICE: Hallie Jane's offers trained bartenders. As a rule of thumb, Hallie Jane's estimates one bartender for every 65-75 guests and one bar back for every two bartenders.

A FEW BAR NOTES:

• Hallie Jane's bar set-ups and bartenders must be contracted together. If a client wishes to provide bartenders, they will be responsible for bar set-ups.
• Signature drinks and additional bar service, such as champagne toasts, martinis, and margaritas can be added to any bar set-up.
• Hallie Jane's recommends one bar for up to 150 guests. Multiple bars increase bar set-up charges.
• Hallie Jane's recommends that beer selections be limited to 2-3 choices and wine selections limited to one type of red, white, and blush. This is a request to help facilitate the proper chilling and timely service at the bar.
