A great wedding reception runs on two things: good food and a good bar. We've already broken down our reception-dinner pricing — so here's the other half, the drinks. This is exactly what our open-bar and bartender service for a VIP wedding in Jacó Beach costs and includes, laid out plainly so you can budget it in one line. See the full flyer and all our wedding services at www.jacobeachchef.com.
Open bar & bartender pricing: $40 per guest
Our premium open bar is priced at a simple $40 per guest, and it includes everything you need to keep the celebration flowing:
- Cold beer
- Wine
- 3 signature mixed drinks
- 4 hours of service
- A professional bartender
* Prices do not include Sales Tax / Transaction Fees.
Like our catering, it's a per-guest rate — multiply it by your headcount and that's your bar. No confusing drink-ticket systems, no per-bottle surprises at the end of the night.
What the bartender handles
The per-guest price covers a trained bartender for the full four-hour service — setting up the bar, mixing your three signature cocktails, pouring beer and wine, and keeping the line moving so no guest is ever waiting on a drink. You're not hiring and vetting a separate bar company; it's part of the same team that handles your catering and event service.
Why an open bar works at our VIP wedding venue
Our VIP Wedding Venue — the beachfront Private Resort & Beach Club at the South End of Jacó — is built for exactly this kind of celebration, with oceanfront bar space and room for your whole group. Running the bar in-house means the drinks, the food and the timeline all stay in sync, and you get one clear quote instead of chasing a separate bar vendor across time zones.
Customizing your wedding bar
The $40 open bar is the core package, but it flexes to your celebration. Want to extend past four hours, add a champagne toast, feature a specialty cocktail named after the couple, or scale the bar for a larger guest count? We build all of that into a single quote. Pair it with our reception dinner and you have the food and the bar handled by one accountable team.
