Why Us vs “just hiring a bartender”
Most “private bartenders” show up with cheap mixers and pour vodka sodas.
​
Ice & Alchemy builds full bar programs for luxury hotels, steak houses, and cocktail lounges across multiple states. Your event gets that same level of quality, hospitality standards, and speed.
This is a curated, professional cocktail experience brought to your space.
​

How Pricing Works
We build quotes around guest count, duration, and level of service.
Typical factors:
​
-
How many guests are you expecting?
-
How many hours of bar service?
-
Do you want us to source and deliver glassware, tables, linens, etc, or do you prefer to source these while we focus on aspects related directly to the menu development, back bar, and bar setup?
-
Do you want additional bartenders / servers / barbacks?
-
Would you like to add interactive options like mini cocktail classes or DIY tables?
Most private OC/LA events fall into the $1,000–$4,500 range for full-service bar and staff.
High-touch activations and luxury weddings can go above that.
​
Bottom line: You’ll get a clean itemized quote (no surprise fees).
