We’ve been a bit quiet over here lately…

But do not be deceived! We are busily working away behind the scenes with all the boring, quiet, planning stuff that makes the magic happen on the day.

But here are some pretty pictures from 2025, looking forward to creating some more wedding magic soon! ✨

When we are executing weddings, our goal is always the same- to make it as easy and hassle free for the hosts as possible 👌

Things we do so you don’t have to:
❄️ Bring all the ice with us on the day (so no running to the servo on the morning of your wedding!)

🥂 Supply all our own glassware and take it away after so you don’t have to hire and return glasses

🍹 Work with you to provide a shopping list outlining exactly how much and what sorts of alcohol to buy

📝 Advise on when to serve your cocktails/ tower/ champagne toast for maximum impact and best flow of your event

🗑️ Collect the empties from the first drink to the last so there’s nothing for you to clear up the next day

💌 Event Management- everything from coordinating with other vendors to dealing with emergencies on the night

🚛 Bring the bar! And take it away again afterwards. Just one less thing for you to do.

Your wedding day is such a special day. And you want to spend it with the people you love the most, not worrying about tidying up or running out of ice.

Leave that stuff to us and enjoy your event with a full drink in your hand knowing all your guests are well looked after!

Cheers! 🥂🥂

We’ve revamped the Cocktail Menu 🎉🍹

It’s not a full overhaul (because frankly there were some delicious options on there to start with!) but we’ve added in a couple of faves such as:

🍋 Limoncello Spritz
🌶️ Signature Spicy Marg
🍾 Hugo Spritz
🍊 Signature Mimosa- an absolute classic!

Check out the link in bio!
Cheers! 🥂

It’s been a while since this big gal has had the spotlight in one of these little internet squares…

So here she is! Reintroducing our Big Beddie, the Original Bedford Bar.

Restored and built by had in 2015, this beauty is perfect for larger events and parties as this big bar frontage can support a fairly serious team.

She loves a big space- think farm weddings or backyard weddings on acreage because truthfully she has a turning circle of the moon 🙈

But if you’re looking for a statement to serve your drinks and get the party started, Big Beddie is your girl 😉

How on earth are you supposed to choose wine for your wedding when you are NOT a wine drinker? 🍷

I know this is a problem for so many couples, because people ask me about this a lot!

When you don’t know your Sav from your Shiraz, choosing something thats both palatable and within the budget can be absolutely daunting and stop that wedding planning right in it’s tracks ❌

Don’t worry though, we got you.

We’ve put together a special list of our favourite wedding wines, based on those we serve frequently. We clocked who bought what, and how many ‘Oooh that ones nice’ we heard from guests behind the bar and put it all on the list, with price categories too.

It couldn’t be more simple. An easy to choose list of pre-approved and easily sourced wedding wines all in your budget 🥂

Head to our bio for the link and tick something off that wedding to do list NOW! ✅

With a 6m bar service area, there’s enough space to serve each and every one of your guests with ease.

The perfect way to solve your wedding drinks dilemma!

We just love a Signature drink 🍹

Drinks packages are fine, but there’s nothing like being able to choose exactly what drinks you want served at your wedding.

The favourite Coconut Marg you drink with the girls, beer from the local brewery where the boys have their knock off drinks or just a classic wine you love.

The more personalised the better. There’s nothing like making your wedding carefully curated to reflect the things you like.

We are a BYO bar so you can choose to serve exactly what you’d like to drink, the brand as well as the type.

And we are always happy to help work out how much to buy and give our recommendations to ensure the organisation is as easy as can be!

✨Out of Office✨

Right about now, we’ll be in the queue to get on the plane, winging our way to the UK for a cold Christmas with family 🛫

But before we go, a few thank you’s.

🥰 To the beautiful people who trusted us with their event drinks-thank you, you make our year, every year.

🍺 To our wonderful team- who I swear get more beautiful, a whole load funnier and even more capable every year. You know we love you so thank you (and we promise to try and micro-manage you less next year! Although I probably say this every year 🤣)

💒 To the vendors and the dream teams we work with- thank you for your inspiration, kind words and belly laughs.

💍 To the people we look forward to working with next year- every year is an adventure and we can’t wait to start yours!

🥃 To the people who support us- the special ones who look after our kids, the people who cheer us on (, I’m lookin’ at you) and everyone else who sees us just doing what we love.

💪 Last but not least, thank you to my favourite person. The one who always shows up to do the heavy lifting, the late nights and the KM’s (and *tries* to control the minions while I’m busy 🙃) You’ll always be my favourite 😍

I would love to say thats us, over and out but we’re a small business so we’ll be lurking around still, checking the emails-so you all know where to find us if you need us...

I’ll be back in the office on Tuesday the 13th Jan, ready to crack on with 2026 🥂

Cheers!
With love from the Hamiltons

The old gal loves being the centre of the party!

Trying to work out where the bar fits best?

Our recommendations:

- Somewhere close to the action, where your guests can easily nip off to grab a drink during dinner

- But not too close! Guests love to congregate around the front of the bar after dinner to chat- leave at least 4metres from any other furniture so there’s space to mingle! 🥂

- Got something functional (but a bit ugly!) you’d rather hide? I’m thinking cold rooms, portaloos or the shed you hid all the mess in! Our trucks can disguise a multitude of sins. Park Big Beddie up in front and all eyes will be on her (instead of the thing you’d rather not see 😉)

- We need to be within about 50m of a power point and a hose- just ask us if you’re not sure!
