What is a Dry Hire Mobile Bar?

A dry hire mobile bar is a service that provides the full bar setup—this includes the physical bar, professional bartenders, mixers, and garnishes—but does not supply the alcohol.

How Does It Work?

It’s simple: the event host provides the alcohol. While that may sound like extra work, we help guide clients on how much to purchase, where to buy, and even coordinate delivery so the process is smooth and stress-free.

Why Choose Dry Hire?

Dry hire is often the most flexible and cost-effective option for weddings, corporate events, and private parties. By supplying your own alcohol, you can:

Control costs by purchasing directly from your preferred store or wholesaler.

Select the exact brands and varieties your guests love.

Enjoy the expertise of trained bartenders and a professional bar setup without the markup on alcohol.

At Tap the Moment, we believe every celebration deserves thoughtful details and easygoing vibes. We’re a Cleveland-based business offering our rustic mobile tap trailer and custom balloon styling for weddings, showers, birthdays, backyard bashes, and anything worth celebrating.

What Makes Us Different

What sets us apart is the ability to offer both mobile bar rentals and balloon styling under one roof — creating a cohesive, custom look without the hassle of juggling multiple vendors. Whether you’re going for laid-back backyard or upscale whimsical, we’ll bring your vision to life.

How We Keep It Easy

We believe great celebrations shouldn’t come with a long to-do list. That’s why we handle every detail — from delivery and setup to breakdown and cleanup — so you can actually enjoy your event, not manage it. You buy the booze or mocktails, and we got everything else.
