Only fill in minors if you want mocktails (zero-alcohol cocktails) for kids, otherwise leave at 0.
Birthdays, anniversaries, engagement parties, holiday get-togethers — private events run on the host, not a wedding planner or a venue's banquet team. Your bartender arrives about an hour before service, builds a clean bar in your kitchen, patio, backyard or rooftop, and pours until the last toast.
Tell the quote your guest count and hours and it sizes the team automatically — one professional bartender for roughly every 60 guests — then prices the supplies you want us to bring, from mixers and ice to a full portable bar.
Ice is what houses run short of: 51% of what we price includes it, and 50% includes coolers to keep it in.
There is about 16 miles between our Hialeah base and Miami Beach. On a private event at that range we load early and leave early, so the setup window carries slack rather than optimism.
The nearest other place we serve is North Bay Village, about 4 miles from Miami Beach center to center, then Miami and El Portal. For a private event that makes the arrival window worth setting deliberately, since guests coming across from those have a real journey to make.
Miami Beach is a municipality in its own right, which for a private 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 Miami Beach private 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 Miami Beach date with a 25% deposit. The balance falls due 48 hours before the private event, and the deposit stays fully refundable until 7 days out — the same terms here as everywhere else we work.
If you are comparing options for a private event in Miami Beach, price this one first. It takes about as long as reading this paragraph and it hands you a real number to compare against instead of a range.
Miami Beach is about 16 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.
North Bay Village, Miami and El Portal are on the same run, so a venue just over the line is no different to book.
Not at all. North Bay Village is about 4 miles from Miami Beach, with Miami and El Portal 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.
Yes, on every booking. If your Miami Beach 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 private event calls for.
Always. Bottled water, soft drinks and a proper mocktail or two are part of how we build a private 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.
Usually as guests arrive, and then it follows your run sheet from there — quiet for the speeches, busy again afterwards.
Tell us the shape of the evening and we will staff the peaks rather than spreading the same crew flat across the night.
Earlier than feels necessary. December is our heaviest month for bartending quotes — 13% of them — and weekend crews run out before dates do.
A 25% deposit holds it and stays refundable until 7 days out, so booking early costs nothing but a decision.
Hand-crafted in front of your guests — as beautiful as they are delicious.

Amazing service and presentation. Robert was great !
Thank you so much for delivering the tables and chairs impeccably clean. The delivery was prompt both times. Your employees were professional and friendly. I will continue to use your services for many years to come. I commend you for running your business with the customer being a priority. Doing business with YD cocktails was a pleasure!
Quick response, great prices, everything delivered was clean and brand new. Easy communication and overall and great experience
We had the pleasure of working with YD Cocktails for a recent corporate event on a yacht, and they absolutely exceeded our expectations. From start to finish, the team was professional, friendly, and incredibly attentive to our 50+ guests. We ran into a few scheduling changes and last-minute adjustments on our end, and they were nothing but accommodating throughout the entire process. Their flexibility, communication, and willingness to help made what could have been a stressful situation feel seamless. The cocktails were fantastic, the service was exceptional, and our guests had an amazing experience and the food was phenomenal. We received so many compliments throughout the event. We can't thank the team enough for helping make our event such a success, and we look forward to working with them again in the future. Highly recommend!

Everything went very smoothly With the Chair Rental for our wedding They showed up when they were supposed to, and they left everything neatly stacked.
Awesome service! Equipment was top of the line and everything was delivered and picked up on time!
David thank you!!! Amazing service, quality chairs, and wonderful people to work with! I used them for an event, and everything was handled professionally from start to finish. They arrived on time, set everything up smoothly, and made sure the entire process was stress-free. Their attention to detail, responsiveness, and top-notch customer service truly stood out. It’s rare to find a company that is both reliable and genuinely caring about their clients’ experience. I highly recommend them and will definitely be using them again for future events!

Great service and experience with YD cocktails! Delicious drinks and the setup was so nice. They did my sister’s bachelorette and did a wonderful job
I am super happy with the chair rental. You came at the right time and later came to pick up with perfect timing. Everyone was so impressed with your efficiency. I didn't have to get mismatched chairs from everybody's back yard!! I am so appreciative for that. Your price was excellent and I'll try to get some pictures for your website. Once again, thank you . 🙏🏻
Great experience, would highly recommend. Food was excellent.
Bartending starts at $85/hour with a 3-hour minimum — about $255 for a small birthday or backyard gathering. The instant quote on this page prices your exact guest count, hours and venue in about a minute.
A professional portable bar, coolers, ice, mixers, fresh juices and garnish, cups, straws and napkins, and water and soft drinks are all available to add in the quote, along with the bartender. We also carry general liability insurance and can send a certificate of insurance if your building or HOA asks for one.
Ice, and something to keep it in. Across the bartending we've priced, 51% added ice and 50% added coolers — at a venue somebody has already thought about both, and at a house nobody has. They're line items, so put your real guest count in and the quote works out the quantities. If your freezer situation is genuinely handled, leave them off and the price drops.
We specialize in weddings, corporate events, birthday parties, private events, festivals, and more. We can accommodate any occasion where drinks are part of the celebration!
Absolutely! Our highly skilled bartenders can design a cocktail menu that matches your event theme or your personal tastes. We also have our signature cocktails that are sure to be hits at most events.
Absolutely, we can do mocktails as well as other soft drinks & juices if requested.
It takes about a minute — no calls, no waiting.
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 !!!!
