WHO IS PROVIDING THE ALCOHOL: Please note that the client is required to supply all alcohol, including liquer mixers. Depending on the client needs, TWST can provide all other non-alcoholic beverages and products such as mixers, garnishes, ice, and disposables.
Note on Pricing: We bill hourly for all our staffing, so what can either increase or decrease the overall bill goes down to how much set up/service needs, and tear down will be required. Things like disposables vs rental, light alcohol vs having a full bar set up, bar station service or tableside service, and locations that require extra staffing due to logistics all play a part in how many and how long the staff must be onsite to properly serve your event.
