Wedding Bar Hire From New Coast Events

What is your bar budget? How much do you want to spend? Are you big drinkers?

Money is always a big question and normally quite high on the list when organising any element of your wedding. When it comes to the bar you can either pay for everything or nothing but whatever you decide your guests will be happy so don’t put too much pressure on it, do what feels right for you.

The main areas that may require funds for the wedding bar is the hire fee, you need to make sure you have a good level of staffing and hands on deck throughout your day. Having experienced people on hand to help with all areas of service is so important and can make your day run smoothly.

Wines for the table, toasting bubbly and post ceremony (welcome drinks) are the main 3 areas our clients tend to put on for their guests and we at New coast offer a service that can help take care of all the stress and worry for a great price. Ask the team for more info.

What do you want to serve at your wedding bar? Your favourite drinks? Cocktails?

It is your day so it is only right that you are able to drink what your favourites. New Coast offer bespoke wedding bar menus, we work with you to build your own wedding bar menu right down to the cocktails.

We have a team of Mixologists who between us can cunger up around 120 cocktails… not all at once. We usually recommend between 3-5 cocktails on the day and we even offer cocktail tastings!

We have the usual connections to the local breweries and companies and will work hard to find any rare or unknown brands that are your favourites to ensure we will be able to serve them up 🙂

Will the bar look right? Style of the bar? Will it look rubbish?

There are levels to wedding bars and catering. We have come across some amazing competitors that have pushed us to up our game and we have also met some weekend warriors who the bar game is very much a hobby. This is not a bad thing everyone has their taste and style however we would recommend checking out your potential supplier on instagram or facebook just to check their style matches with your idea. That being said the New Coast instagram and Facebook is @Newcoastliquor and @newcoastevents please check us out.

We also offer a variety of styles and setups 3 main styles and a double decker bus bar and restaurant. Our style is very rustic but we will work hard to offer our clients exactly what they are after and if New Coast just isn’t for you then not to worry we understand.

How far should I book in advance? Will they have availability?

You can never book too far in advance when it comes to events and especially when it comes to the most important day of your life. We have bookings 18 months in advance and we never double book. We focus all of our attention on one client at a time and like to have all of our resources focused on one place at a time. We do however book up quite quickly and since we started back in 2016 we have become increasingly more popular and 2020 is already filling fast, this is the same across all the best suppliers in the industry so do not hang around.

Do you take card? Do you have a minimum spend? Can we put money behind the bar?

These are all great questions and things that need to be discussed, New Coast does accept card but in order for us to do this we need some form of signal, WIFI is perfect but a 4G connection is good enough. A weak connection can cause delays in being served but being organised and discussing this at a pre meeting at the venue can sort that out.

We do not have a minimum spend and you can absolutely put money behind the bar, we will work with you every step of the way to help your budget stretch. We offer a token system that also works really well when spreading your budget around your guests and ensuring everyone is able to get a drink in their own time rather than rushing to the bar to make sure there is some tab left.
