What a bar actually costs
Five packages, all priced per guest
Every package below covers 4 hours of bar service, the supplies package and cups. Bartenders are $50 an hour, one per 75 guests, and a 20% setup and service charge applies. No package requires a phone call to find out what it costs.
| Package | Per guest | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Non-Alcoholic Bar | $15 | A full bar experience with no alcohol: two specialty batch lemonades, a soda package, and a sparkling non-alcoholic toast. |
| Beer & Wine Bar | $20 | One premium beer, two domestic beers, a house red and a house white, with sodas and water. |
| Specialty Bar | $23 | Everything in the Beer & Wine Bar plus two specialty batch cocktails from the signature menu. |
| Premium Call Bar | $27 | A full spirits bar with call brands across all five categories, plus beer and wine. Many couples call this the open bar package. |
| Platinum Call Bar | $35 | Top-shelf across every category — Grey Goose, Don Julio, Hendrick’s, Maker’s Mark — with mid-tier wines, mixers, ice, coolers and garnishes included. |

The Shaker method
What sets us apart from the rest
Top-notch bartenders
Shaker hires bartenders who know their way around a busy bar and how to keep things cool and safe, so guests have a good time and the evening runs smoothly for you.
Smart drink stocking
Bartenders keep the drinks your guests actually want within reach and cut down on leftovers, which keeps the party moving and the cost down. On a BYOB bar this is the difference between returnable bottles and opened ones.
Effortless collaboration
The crew works with the rest of your vendor team rather than around it, from setup through clean-up. Planners are the people who notice this first, and it is what turns up most often in Shaker’s reviews.
Exceptional customer service
Timely service and attention to detail, with bartenders who treat each guest as a guest rather than an order in a queue.

What couples and planners say
As a wedding planner, I love using Shaker Bar and Bev! They are very efficient bartenders and best part - they help clean up all the bar drinks at the end! Love this!!!
They did an amazing job. They communicated well and fulfilled what we wanted tremendously. The service ran smoothly on wedding day and I am so happy with how everything went.
This team did a truly phenomenal job on our wedding day! They made drinks quickly, kept the bar areas clean, and did an amazing job using the ingredients we provided to mix our signature cocktails perfectly. They were also incredibly accommodating and flexible. Just a week before the wedding, we needed to add a second bar, and they made it completely seamless to scale up and add the extra staff we needed. We had multiple guests tell us after the wedding, "We never had to wait in a long line." If you want fast, professional, and adaptable bartending for your event, look no further!
Where we work
Two metros, named out loud
Shaker serves Dallas-Fort Worth and Houston. Both, properly — Houston has its own page and its own cities, because a Houston couple should not have to guess whether a Southlake company travels.
