Mobile Bar / Servers

In Indianapolis: Two (2) service vendors are listed in this category — that is a thin count and worth naming plainly. Indiana's Alcohol and Tobacco Commission sets the rules: an off-premise caterer's permit is required for a bar service to pour at a venue that does not carry its own license, and the venue's own license status determines what is even possible on site. Ask the venue for its status in writing before you shop bar vendors. Three labeled retail alternatives are included for BYOB reception planning where the venue permits it, but note that most venues that allow you to supply the alcohol still require a licensed and insured bartender to serve it. Confirm the permit chain and the certificates of insurance well before the rehearsal, not the week of.

Buying the beer, wine and spirits yourself

These are retail sources, not event services — nobody here staffs your bar. Where your venue allows it, buying the alcohol yourself and hiring a licensed bartender to serve it is usually the cheapest way to do this line. The rules vary by state, by county and by venue, so confirm what yours permits — and whether your setup needs its own permit — before you count on the saving.
