About
Dear,

My name is Craig Dane and I am the owner/operator of CDE Event Bartending. I wanted to thank you for considering our services and for the opportunity to provide a quote for your event.

Our fee includes everything you need to ensure a successful event, including an extra hour of prep time, a portable bar set up if needed, extra coolers/metal bin, a cocktail ice bin, barware tools, cocktail straws and napkins, a trash can, a floor mat, all detailed consultations, and constant clean-up. Please note that the fee does not include client gratuity, which we leave up to you based on your level of satisfaction.

In addition, our fee assumes the use of a guest tip jar. Without one, we charge an additional $15 per hour per bartender.

We pride ourselves on our excellent service and encourage you to check out our over 200 FIVE-star reviews on websites such as CrackerJack, Gigmasters, GigSalad, TheKnot, and our CDE Event Bartender website. We're especially proud of our CrackerJack profile and accolades, and have earned their 2022 Top Pro honors for EIGHT years in a row - a recognition achieved by less than 4% of pros annually!

After the deposit is made, we will provide you with detailed recommendations for all product types, brands, and quantities required for your shopping list. Our bartenders are assigned on a weekly basis leading up to the event and, for liability reasons, our maximum window of service is four hours plus one extra prep/set up hour when serving an open bar.

We caution against choosing a "discount" bartender, as quality service from a dedicated professional is of utmost importance. At CDE Event Bartending, we take your event as seriously as you do and are always committed to providing top-notch service.

To reserve your date, please kindly provide a non-refundable deposit of $75 via my Venmo.com account (CraigDane) or CashApp ($craigdane61) with no additional fees, or via Paypal with a 2.9% fee (payment to my email).

Lastly, if your venue requires liability insurance, we suggest referring to THEEVENTHELPER.COM for reasonably priced one-day rates. Thank you for your consideration and we look forward to serving your event!

Warm regards,

Craig Dane

P.S. Additionally, I am a passionate and experienced Wedding Officiant! Please feel free to check out my bartender and officiant services reviews/photos on CDE Wedding Officiant.

During our cocktail hour and reception for our wedding, Kara was our fabulous bartender. She exuded loveliness and sweetness, and her punctuality was impeccable. Her drinks were also amazing! Undoubtedly, when planning our next event, CDE events will make the top of our list for hiring.

Craig arrived punctually, equipped and adaptable despite being assigned to tend the bar on a houseboat. We appreciate your efforts in catering to all our attendees!

Throughout the night, Craig proved to be an excellent bartender. We had hired him for a four-hour shift, but he arrived one hour early and got right to work. He easily mingled with the crowd and crafted some truly impressive drinks. We definitely plan on hiring him for all of our future events.

Craig is an exceptional bartender and business expert, offering meticulous attention to detail and a willingness to ensure that my event was the epitome of elegance and efficiency. He provided his services at an affordable rate without sacrificing quality or timeliness, and was always quick to respond to my inquiries and needs. I was impressed by Craig's remarkable bartending abilities and his impeccable customer service, from creating a tailored drink menu to sourcing all necessary items and setting up the bar. I'm already planning on using his services again. The non-alcoholic drinks he served at my nonprofit event were so delicious that everyone raved about them and the overall wonderful experience. Look no further if you're seeking a reliable, reasonably-priced, professional, and skillful bartender - Craig is your guy! Don't hesitate to request a quote from him.

For my husband's birthday celebration, we enlisted CDE bartenders, who proved to be exceptional. Craig was especially helpful during the planning stage, as he provided excellent recommendations regarding the quantity of beverages required and assisted with the drink menu. His suggestions were spot-on. On the day of the party, Kara's service was fantastic. The experience was enjoyable and effortless. It was worth the investment, and we will undoubtedly hire CDE bartenders again.
