Perfect Bar Set-Up for Every Event
Many small details go into setting up an event, but as any guest will tell you, one of the most important and most visited areas of a party is the bar. How to set up the bar at an event can become a bit of a puzzle. The chances are that you also have other areas to tend to, like seating, dancing, entertainment, and catering. However, as long as everyone has a drink in their hands, the event can’t go wrong. Here are a few things to consider when setting up a bar at an event.
What to Look for While Setting Up a Bar
Bar Size
Depending on the size of your event, from the guest list to the size of the venue, you’ll need to find a bar setup that can handle all the foot traffic. You’ll need a bar big enough to fit all the different types of alcohol, beer, wine, and non-alcoholic drinks that you intend to serve to your guests. If you are low on space, minimizing your bar menu to wine and beer will help you cut back on the size of the bar that you need – and it will reduce your alcohol budget.
Multiple Bars
The bar area is going to be heavily trafficked. The placement of your bar should be out of the way to allow for many people to stand around without bumping into tables or taking up the whole dance floor. For large events, you may want to consider having multiple bars so that you won’t have too many guests flooding one area of the room. If you have a few bars located around the venue, you’re spreading out the guests, allowing for a better flow of your event.
