What Fontainebleau hosts get
What a Fontainebleau wedding actually involves
Fontainebleau is about 12 miles south of our Hialeah yard: far enough that a wedding here gets its drive written into the run sheet, close enough that the drive is never the story of the day.
Fontainebleau has Sweetwater and Westchester close at hand, the nearest about 2 miles out. Guests coming from that direction arrive together, so we build the wedding bar to absorb a front-loaded rush rather than a steady stream.
Fontainebleau is an unincorporated area rather than a city of its own, so county rules cover your wedding and the tighter restrictions come from the venue or the HOA. We ask about both before the truck is scheduled.
What you actually book for a Fontainebleau wedding 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.
Setup starts roughly 1 hour ahead of your start time, and we hold that against your run sheet rather than our own. If the ceremony, the speeches or the entrance move, the bar moves with them.
Every wedding bartender we run in Fontainebleau is quoted from the same rate card as the rest of Miami-Dade, so the number the wizard gives you is the number we honour when you book it.
Can you handle a large wedding in Fontainebleau?
Yes — staffing scales with the headcount and the bar is built to match. For context, half the bartending quotes we write are for 50 guests or fewer, so a bigger room is a question of more hands and more ice rather than a different service.
Put the guest count and the timeline into the wizard and it prices the staffing for you.
My venue is near Fontainebleau rather than in it — is that a problem?
Not at all. Sweetwater is about 2 miles from Fontainebleau, with Westchester and University Park close behind, and all of them price identically.
Give us the real address when you book and we plan the load-in around that rather than around the search term.
Can you design a custom menu for a Fontainebleau wedding?
That is how we normally do it — the list is built around what your guests will actually drink, mocktails and frozen drinks included.
The mixers, juices, garnish and ice to run it arrive with the bar, portioned to your headcount.
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 wedding 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.
Can the bar stay open longer on the night?
Often, if the crew's schedule allows it. Extra time is added at the same hourly rate rather than at a penalty rate.
It is worth deciding in advance where you want last call, because the hour people regret is almost always the last one.
How much does a wedding in Fontainebleau cost?
From $85/hour with a 3-hour minimum, around $255 at the floor. The hours, the guest count and what you have us bring do the rest.

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 !!!!
