Miami, Florida

Bar

In Miami: Budget $3,000 to $8,000, and read that number carefully, because most caterers here quote drinks inside the per-person food price rather than as a line of their own. Ask for it separated before you sign. Standalone mobile bar service is a smaller trade in this market than its size would suggest, in part because many venues run the bar in-house and require you to use it, which settles the question before you get to ask it. Where a venue does let you supply the alcohol yourself, that is usually the largest single saving available anywhere on this list, but it moves buying, chilling, transport and licensed staffing onto your side of the ledger. Confirm what your venue permits, and whether your setup needs a permit of its own, before you count the saving.

The bar is part hospitality, part budget lever. Options run from a full open bar (most generous, most expensive) to a limited or signature bar — beer, wine, and a cocktail or two — to a cash bar where guests pay. Some venues require you to use their in-house bar service; others let you supply your own alcohol, which can save real money but adds the logistics of buying, chilling, and staffing. Whatever you choose, insist on licensed, professional bartenders who know how to pace service, keep water and festive non-alcoholic options flowing, serve real food alongside the drinks, and help everyone get home safely.
