You bring the bottles.

We bring the bar.

Planning an event is enough work on its own. The bar shouldn't be one more thing you worry about. We set it up, run it, and break it down — you don't touch a thing.

Let’s get started

People at a social gathering raising cocktail glasses in a toast, with women wearing jewelry and watching each other.

From the menu to the mood, we tailor every detail around you.

Every bar we build starts from the same place: you.

Your taste, your guests, the feeling you want the event to have — it all shapes the bar we build for you. Your booking includes a consultation and tasting where we work together to build the perfect menu for your event. By the time your guests arrive, everything has been taken care of, and all that’s left is enjoy your own party.

A group of five people, three men and two women, are standing and talking in a dimly lit indoor setting, possibly a restaurant or bar. They are engaged in conversation and holding drinks, with a warm ambiance and reflective surfaces in the background.

Our Three Pillars

A man with sunglasses and a beard pouring light pink drink from a cocktail shaker into a glass with the same drink. Bar setup with bottles and accessories outdoors on a sunny day.

We squeeze the citrus, cook the syrups, and build every drink by hand. That’s a difference you and your guests can taste and see. It’s the difference between a bespoke bar experience, and a guy with a cooler.

Crafted

People gathered at a festive dinner table, raising glasses of champagne for a toast, with string lights hanging overhead in a warmly lit rustic setting.

Our service model means your guests never reach for their wallets at the bar. They order, we pour, and they enjoy. That’s event hospitality they can feel.

Hosted

No two East River events are the same. Our consultation and tasting ensure that your bar menu reflects who you are as a host, giving you the confidence you need to simply enjoy your event.

Tailored

How It Works

Reach out with your date and a few details.
We build your menu together in a relaxed consultation.
We handle the rest. You enjoy your own event.

You provide the spirits, wine, and beer — we bring everything else: the trained bartenders, the fresh ingredients, the tools, the ice, the setup, and the teardown. You save money, and your bar works exactly the way you want it.

Weddings · Rehearsal Dinners · Anniversaries · Birthdays · Retirements · Corporate & Office Events · Graduations · Holiday Parties · Reunions · Game Days

Let’s talk about your next celebration.

If you’ve got a date in mind, we’d love to hear about it. Tell us a little: the occasion, the day, roughly how many people you’re expecting, and we’ll be in touch to talk through what your bar could look like. No pressure, no obligation; just a straight conversation about what your bar could look like.

Dates book quickly, especially in wedding season — the sooner you reach out, the better we can serve you.
