How it works

Three steps to a well-run bar

  1. 01

    Tell us about the event

    Share your date, location, guest count and whether you need a bartender, a venue, or both.

  2. 02

    Review your options

    For our own Nashville-area service, a $150 deposit holds the date and the balance is due 7 days before the event. Independent providers and venues set their own terms.
