Christening & Naming Ceremony Bar Hire.

A daytime family gathering needs a bar that fits the room, mocktail-first by default and easy for a wide age range, with a licensed toast available as an optional add-on for the adults who want one. We bring the same setup, staff, and standard of drinks as any booking, sized to a relaxed afternoon rather than an evening party.

01 - What's Included

A Bar for the Whole Family.

Every booking includes a bar setup, bartenders, quality glassware, ice, garnishes, and full setup and strike. The menu is mocktail-first and included as standard. A licensed option, including a champagne or prosecco toast timed to the right moment, can run alongside as an optional add-on, tell us when you enquire and we'll quote it separately.

Public liability insurance of £5 million covers every booking, and any bartender serving alcohol holds a personal alcohol licence.

02 - The Menu

Easy Flavours for a Wide Age Range.

Fresh fruit spritzers and familiar, uncomplicated flavours work best across a room that spans grandparents to toddlers. We keep the mocktail menu simple and crowd-pleasing rather than experimental, with a short champagne or prosecco toast available as an optional add-on for the adults at the right moment.

For a typical christening or naming ceremony of 30-60 guests over 2-3 hours, a steady daytime pace suits the room better than an evening rush. See our full cocktail menu for the complete drinks list.

08 - FAQ

Christening & Naming Ceremony Bar Hire FAQ.

What kind of bar suits a christening or naming ceremony? +
A relaxed, family-friendly setup that's mocktail-first by default, with a licensed option available as an optional add-on for adults who want a drink to toast with. Christenings and naming ceremonies usually run daytime with a wide age range in the room, so we stock and staff for a steady, unhurried afternoon rather than an evening party.
Do you offer a champagne or fizz toast for a christening? +
Yes, as an optional add-on. A short champagne, prosecco, or sparkling non-alcoholic toast at the right moment, after the ceremony or before the meal, is a common request and easy to add to any package.
How much does christening or naming ceremony bar hire cost? +
All-inclusive packages run £6.50-£7.50 per person per hour, whether the menu is mocktail-only (the default) or you add a licensed bar or toast for the adults. A 40-guest, 3-hour all-inclusive bar lands around £780-£900. Dry hire from £1,700 suits larger family gatherings supplying some drinks themselves.
Can you set up at home rather than a hired venue? +
Yes, christenings and naming ceremonies are frequently hosted at home after the ceremony itself. Our house party bar hire page covers residential setups, and garden party bar hire covers a marquee or garden setup if the weather allows.
Is the mocktail menu suitable for children and older relatives? +
Yes, our zero-proof menu is built to work across a wide age range rather than skew towards either kids or adults, fresh fruit spritzers and simple, familiar flavours rather than anything overly experimental.
How many guests do christenings typically need staff for? +
For a typical christening or naming ceremony of 30-60 guests, one bartender comfortably covers the mocktail bar, plus a licensed add-on if you've booked one, at that scale. Larger family gatherings of 80+ may need a second staff member, we size the team when you enquire.
