Why Choose Us?


Do you provide bar hire throughout Derbyshire?
Yes, we offer our mobile bar hire services across the entire county of Derbyshire. Whether you’re holding an event in Derby city centre, planning a wedding in Buxton, or hosting a garden party in Ilkeston, we’re happy to travel to you. Our team is familiar with the area and experienced in setting up at a wide range of venues, from elegant hotels to rural marquees and everything in between. Our mobile bars are fully self-contained and designed to work in indoor or outdoor spaces, so we can adapt to whatever setup your event requires. We regularly serve events in Swadlincote, Chesterfield and surrounding towns, and we’re always happy to chat about your plans and confirm if your location is suitable. Wherever you’re based in Derbyshire, you can count on us to deliver a professional, polished and friendly bar service that fits right in with your celebration.
Do you offer different types of bar hire packages?
We do. At Vivid Bar Services, we understand that every event is different, so we offer a range of flexible bar hire packages to suit your needs. You can choose from a fully stocked bar where we supply everything, a cash bar where guests pay for their own drinks, or a pre-paid package that covers drinks for part or all of your event. We also offer dry hire, where you provide the drinks and we supply everything else, including the bar, bartenders, glassware, ice, and more. We’re happy to discuss your ideas and help you choose the best option for your event, whether that’s a marquee wedding in Buxton, a birthday party in Ilkeston, or a corporate event in Derby. Our packages are transparent and tailored to suit your budget. No hidden costs—just great service and everything you need to keep the drinks flowing throughout your celebration.
What kinds of events do you cater for?
We cater for a wide range of events, offering tailored bar hire for weddings, private parties, corporate functions and public events throughout Derbyshire. Whether you’re planning an intimate birthday gathering in Ilkeston, a large wedding in Buxton, or a business networking event in Derby, we have the team, equipment and experience to handle it. We’ve worked at everything from music festivals to office parties, and we bring the same attention to detail and enthusiasm to each one. Our mobile bars can be set up in a wide variety of venues and styled to suit your theme. From family garden parties in Swadlincote to formal company dinners in Chesterfield, we ensure the drinks service is smooth, efficient and enjoyable for all. No event is too big or too small, and we’re always happy to offer guidance if you’re not quite sure what you need. We’ll help you build a bar package that fits your day perfectly.
How far in advance should I book?
To secure your preferred date—especially during popular months like summer and the lead-up to Christmas—it’s best to book as early as possible. Derbyshire is home to many beautiful wedding venues and outdoor spaces, and we often get booked up months in advance for events in places like Chesterfield, Swadlincote and Buxton. For weddings and large celebrations, we recommend booking at least six to twelve months ahead if you can. However, we always try to accommodate short-notice bookings where we have availability. Booking early gives us more time to work with you on the finer details, including drinks menus and any licensing requirements. Once your booking is confirmed, we’ll keep in touch and help guide you through the planning process. Whether your event is in a town centre venue or a remote rural location, we’ll ensure everything is ready and running smoothly when the big day arrives.
Can we request a custom drinks menu?
Yes, of course. One of the things our clients love most about our service is the ability to create a custom drinks menu tailored to their event. Whether you want elegant champagne cocktails for your wedding in Derby, locally sourced beers for a garden party in Swadlincote, or themed cocktails for a birthday in Chesterfield, we’ll work with you to design something unique. You can choose from a wide range of premium spirits, wines, soft drinks, and alcohol-free options. If you have a specific drink in mind or would like to include signature cocktails that reflect your theme or personality, we’ll make it happen. Our bartenders are skilled in mixology and presentation, so the drinks not only taste great but look the part too. We’ll also help you balance the menu so it works well for your guests and your budget, making sure the drinks are a real highlight of your celebration.
Can you provide bar hire for outdoor and marquee events?
Yes, we’re fully equipped to provide bar hire for outdoor and marquee events across Derbyshire. We’ve worked at country weddings in Buxton, village fetes in Ilkeston and outdoor corporate events near Derby, so we’re used to all kinds of outdoor settings. Our mobile bars are weatherproof, self-contained, and easy to set up in fields, gardens or large open spaces. We bring everything with us, including glassware, cooling equipment, ice, and cover if needed. If your event requires a temporary alcohol licence, we can arrange that for you too. We’ve built a reliable reputation for delivering smooth, professional bar services in outdoor locations—even in unpredictable British weather. Whether your event is formal or relaxed, our outdoor bar hire service adds the perfect finishing touch. From a countryside celebration in Swadlincote to a festival-style party in Chesterfield, we’re here to help make your drinks service as enjoyable and stress-free as the rest of your event.
