Following on from episode 7 where we focused on buying alcohol for the wedding, in this episode, Nim dives into all things bar logistics — from how many bartenders you actually need, to setting up the bar flow, glassware quantities, and when to start (and stop) serving. We chat about managing queues, bar layouts, prepping garnishes and mixers, and making sure your guests get their drinks fast and fresh.

We’ll also cover how to brief your bar team, keep your setup safe and tidy, and handle the classic challenges from running low on ice to overenthusiastic uncles behind the bar. Whether you’re hiring a professional bar company or setting up your own DIY drinks station, this one’s your guide to a smooth, stylish, and stress-free service.
