Three pieces, designed around your theme
From one real client’s “Salt Lime & Tequila” night. After you book, all three are designed with you on your design call.
Setup: we arrive 45–60 min early to set up — your service hours start when doors open, not when we arrive.
Pricing: $1,000 covers up to 50 guests, then +$10 per guest (guest counts step in 5s). From 70 guests a second bartender is included in the price — never an add-on.
Deposit: a flat $250 deposit saves your date — the balance is due the day of your event.
Insurance: general + liquor liability insured · bartenders RBS/TIPS certified · Certificate of Insurance provided for your venue on request.

Travel is free across most of Orange County; a small travel fee applies for events farther out.
The bar, the banner on the front, the printed menu and the stickered cup below all came from one client’s “Salt Lime & Tequila” night — nothing staged, nothing stock. The same pieces are designed with you on your design call.
Once your date is confirmed, it’s locked: if our bartender ever can’t make it, a fully-equipped replacement of the same caliber comes instead — or your deposit is refunded in full. Need to move the date? Reschedule once, free, up to 7 days before your event.
“I’ve spent a decade in my family’s restaurant here in OC — the last five running it. The nights I loved most were always the events: that moment a room lights up and a celebration actually feels like one. I built The Salt Rim to chase that feeling. My name is on this bar, so every detail has to be right.”

Since you bring the bottles, we built you a free calculator: enter your guest count, hours and event type and get an exact shopping list of beer, wine & spirits — so nothing goes to waste. Then we handle the rest.
