Las Vegas, Nevada

Mobile Bar / Servers

In Las Vegas: Two legal paths exist in Clark County and only two. Either a licensed liquor caterer pulls a permit at least ten calendar days before your date, or the venue's own liquor licensee pulls an off-premise permit for your event. There is no third path, and the one couples reach for first, buying the alcohol themselves and having a friend pour it at a rented venue, is not legal here. Settle this when you sign the venue rather than later, because a site with no licensee of its own means your caterer choice has quietly become your bar decision, and the ten-day clock is theirs to start, not yours. Budget the service charge and the tax on top of the bar quote, exactly as with catering.

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.
