When it comes to the biggest day of your life, we realize that you want top of the line service in every arena. And one of the arenas that you are going to need to seek out for your reception is a mobile bartending service. We urge you to not take this search for granted because you do not want to take any chances with the biggest event of your life. Just think about it for a minute, if you overlook doing a thorough investigation into a professional and high quality bartending service, you could have a real disaster on your hands very quickly. Your guests are going to expect to be able to obtain their drink in a timely fashion and to have it taste exactly as it should. But for that to happen, you need a true professional who has had great training and has experience. But without the right service installed at your reception, things could go downhill very, very quickly. The last thing that you want is for your guests to be waiting forever for their order or even worse, to be given the wrong drink or one that was poorly mixed. We have to be honest, the search and hire of this vendor is a really tricky feat. Let's face it, when is the last time that you have had to search for a mobile bartender? There is a major pitfall here and we warn you right now to not fall into it. Maybe people think that once they hire a reception venue that everything in relation to food and drink will be taken care of by the venue. That is certainly not the case at all and you need to ask your reception venue about that. In fact, many venues do not provide any kind of food or drink service so there is a very good chance that you are going to have to search for your own mobile bartending service. So, with that in mind you need to start researching mobile bartenders and if need to know what you are looking for in such a professional. Because as stated earlier, the professional bartender who is the perfect fit for your reception will be able to make your guests smile and laugh all night long. We urge you to not rush this search in any way, take your time and make sure that this is accomplished correctly. You don't have to worry about finding a vendor to fill this roll because the Toledo area has plenty of mobile bartenders to check into. We would love to help with your search so we have put together a guide that will help you with reaching your goal of hiring the best mobile bartending service you can find in your area.

So, we realize that your first question is probably going to be what the best avenue is to find this type of vendor. There are a few ways, but we know of a couple of surefire ways to gather some names. The first way that we highly recommend and that is fairly easy to conduct is to make use of the world wide web. Do a Google search for “mobile bartenders in Toledo.” You might be amazed at the number of results you get back but the best thing you can do is to just dive right in and start checking out each website of each vendor. Check out their credentials page and their gallery page to get a sense of how they setup at various functions. Also, read their testimonial page to find out what past clients have said about them. When you see a candidate that just smacks of quality, record their name and contact information on a sheet of paper. Once you have a list of at least three, call each vendor up and find out if they are available on your wedding date. If they say yes, setup an interview.

When you are sitting across the table from each vendor, be prepared to ask specific questions. First and foremost, discuss their experience. You need to make sure they have worked numerous weddings? The last thing you need is to be someone's guinea pig. How did they learn mixology? Are they passionate about their work? Test them to see what drinks they can make. Do you like them? Remember, a great personality part of the job description. Does the service carry liability insurance? Do they make sure their employees have responsible vendor training? Do they arrive early to setup? A professional will consider this normal behavior. What will you have to provide? Will they also provide non-alcoholic choices? How much do they charge for their services? We suggest that you make gratuity dependent on their performance at your reception. When you have completed your interviews, consider all of the information you have gathered and make a decision based on the information you have.
