Three Things Shape Your Quote

Guest Count
More guests means more service, so your guest count is the biggest factor in the final number. Tell us your headcount and we build the quote around it.
Hours of Service
A four-hour party and an all-evening reception are different jobs. The number of hours you need adjusts the quote accordingly.
Tier & Add-ons
Moving up from Essential to the Signature Menu or The Full Experience adds custom menus and presentation. A third bartender is an optional paid add-on for larger crowds.

Every event is quoted individually from these factors, then sent to you as one clear, itemized number — no hidden line items, no guesswork.

BYOB Is Where You Save

Palm Beach Cocktails is a BYOB service. You buy your own alcohol at retail and we never mark it up — the single biggest way to keep the cost down — and you supply the serviceware (cups, glassware, napkins, straws, and utensils). We bring the bartenders, bar tools, and ice, and provide mixers and fresh garnishes for cocktail packages, billed at our cost. You pay for great service, not a liquor markup.

No Surprises

Deposit: A 20% deposit (minimum $100) secures your date and applies toward your service fee. A signed contract confirms the booking — no deposit, no confirmed date.

Processing fee: A 4% flat processing fee applies to all bookings, regardless of payment method, to cover payment handling costs. We accept card and cash.

Travel: Travel is complimentary for local events within Palm Beach County. Locations beyond our standard service radius start at a $50 travel fee, quoted up front.
