Summer is in full swing, and as the sun shines brighter and the heat intensifies, it's important to keep your guests cool and hydrated during your special event. At DFW Bartending, we've got you covered with some essential recommendations to beat the heat and ensure everyone has a refreshing experience!
Ice, Ice Baby! 🧊
One of the keys to keeping your drinks cool and enjoyable is having an ample supply of ice. If your venue doesn't have an ice machine, don't worry! We've got a couple of suggestions to ensure your guests stay cool:
For every guest, we recommend bringing 1 1/2 - 2 pounds of ice. This amount will ensure there's enough ice to keep their drinks chilled throughout the event.
If you're planning to have a full bar or a non-alcohol station, we recommend leaning towards 2 pounds of ice per guest. This extra ice will ensure that everyone's beverages stay refreshingly cold.
But wait, there's more! We understand that event planning can be overwhelming, so if you'd rather not worry about sourcing ice yourself, we've got a fantastic solution for you. Our trusted partners at Diamond Ice offer ice delivery services straight to your event location. Simply reach out to them, and they'll take care of all your ice needs.
Hydration is Key!💦 While we're on the topic of beating the heat, let's not forget about the importance of staying hydrated. To keep your guests refreshed and hydrated throughout your event, we have a couple of recommendations:
During the cocktail hour and throughout the evening, it's crucial to make water easily accessible. We recommend either providing mini water bottles for each guest or setting up water dispensers with plastic cups.
To streamline the water station and ensure convenience, we suggest keeping it separate from the main bar area. This way, guests who prefer water won't have to wait in line with those ordering other beverages.
By incorporating these simple tips into your event planning, you'll ensure that everyone stays cool, comfortable, and hydrated, no matter how high the temperature rises. At DFW Bartending, we believe that a well-hydrated and satisfied guest is a happy guest!
So, let's beat the heat together and create an unforgettable event experience for you and your guests. Stay cool, stay hydrated, and enjoy the summer celebrations! ☀️🍹💧
