Booking a corporate event bartender here
The bar we build for a Doral corporate event
Doral sits about 9 miles south of our Hialeah base, which puts a corporate event here inside the ring we work most weekends — same kit, same crew, same setup window as anything closer in.
Doral has Medley and Fontainebleau close at hand, the nearest about 2 miles out. Guests coming from that direction arrive together, so we build the corporate event bar to absorb a front-loaded rush rather than a steady stream.
Doral is a municipality in its own right, which for a corporate event mostly shows up as parking and curfew. Tell us what the venue has told you and the setup and breakdown get planned to fit inside it.
What you actually book for a Doral corporate event is a licensed, insured team, a bar that photographs well, and a drinks list built with you rather than handed to you. What you do not book is a stranger who turns up and asks where the ice is.
You hold a Doral date with a 25% deposit. The balance falls due 48 hours before the corporate event, and the deposit stays fully refundable until 7 days out — the same terms here as everywhere else we work.
You can have a price for your Doral corporate event before you finish your coffee, and a held date shortly after. Everything above is what happens between those two moments.
How far will you travel for a Doral corporate event?
Doral is about 9 miles from where we load, and we cover the whole of Miami-Dade. The distance shapes our morning, not your rate — bartending is $85/hour with a 3-hour minimum.
Medley, Fontainebleau and Virginia Gardens are on the same run, so a venue just over the line is no different to book.
What do you need from a Doral venue?
Where the truck can stop, and which door the bar comes through. For a corporate event that is usually the whole of it, and knowing it in advance is the difference between a calm setup and a scramble.
We will also ask what surface the bar sits on and whether there is cover, since both change the build.
Are your bartenders licensed and insured?
Yes, on every booking. If your Doral venue wants a certificate, ask and we will send it across.
The crew is on site about 1 hour before service and dresses to whatever code the corporate event calls for.
Do you cater to guests who are not drinking?
Always. Bottled water, soft drinks and a proper mocktail or two are part of how we build a corporate event menu, not an afterthought bolted on at the end.
Portions are worked out from your total headcount, so nobody is counting cups at the end of the night.
What happens if my Doral corporate event runs late?
We would rather stay and clear the bar down properly than leave a job half finished, and the crew plans for the evening rather than for the minute.
Anything beyond the booked hours is agreed on the night and charged at the ordinary hourly rate.
How do I book a corporate event in Doral?
Price it here, then hold the date with a 25% deposit. The balance falls due 48 hours before the corporate event.
The deposit is fully refundable until 7 days out, and the date can be moved free of charge up to 48 hours before.
YD Cocktails is spectacular to work with. From the very first consultation, to the follow up by Yovana, to the smallest details and questions they asked. All to ensure that every detail was in place, and it was customized for us, family, and friends. From the display menu to the specialty drinks for the house. The drinks were as appealing to the eye as they were to drink Phenomenal presentation and taste. I don’t think Yovana and David had a chance to stop all night. I swear !!!! Even with that they served all kinds of shots and Cuba Libre (Mentirita) on the dance floor to keep the party going. The attention to detail and professionalism is second to none. I asked to add an extra hour at the very last minute as the guest didn’t want them to leave and that was not a problem whatsoever. Delighted and so happy I went with YD Cocktails. HIGHLY HIGLY RECOMMEND !!!!
