Decide between a basic bartender (classic pours), a mixologist (signature cocktails), or a flair act (showy, slower service). For Gurugram house parties, 1 bartender per 35–40 guests works; add a bar-back for speed. Crowd trends: craft gin G&Ts, whisky highballs, spicy margaritas, and a small zero-proof list for non-drinkers. mytribe matches you on vibe, speed needs, and menu depth before you book.
Costs, add-ons, and hidden fees
Ballpark: basic bartender ₹2,000–3,500 per shift; mixologist ₹4,000–7,000; flair ₹5,000–9,000. Full bar setup (table, tools, basic glassware) ₹10k–25k; molecular add-ons extra. Packages may exclude alcohol but include mixers/ice. Overtime kicks in after 5 hours. Expect travel surcharges for Manesar/Sohna Road and breakage deposits for glassware. mytribe handles quotes and line-items so you don’t pay for fluff.
Gurgaon logistics and permissions
RWAs often need vendor details/gate passes; lifts have timing rules, so schedule load-in. Residential noise curfew is real after 10 pm; keep the bar efficient. Haryana dry days can affect supply—plan inventory early. Chill alcohol in advance (fridges fill fast); order extra ice in summer. mytribe confirms IDs, addresses, and society rules with providers to avoid last-minute drama.
