Signature cocktails are always welcome—and one of our favorite parts of the planning process.
Whether you have a drink in mind or want help creating something unique, we’re happy to work with you to design a cocktail menu that reflects your style and your event.
No additional service fees for signature cocktails
We see the bar as more than just a service—it’s part of the atmosphere of your event. It’s where guests gather, interact, and experience those small details that make everything feel complete.
That’s why we love working with our clients to create signature cocktails that feel personal, intentional, and perfectly suited to the overall vibe of the day.

This minimum can be met through:
Non-alcoholic beverage service
Bar purchases (alcoholic beverages)
