F.A.Q.

Do you supply the alcohol?

That's totally up to you! We can either facilitate your order through a retailer (you receive a discount on the alcohol you purchase, and we will return what we legally can after your event), or you can purchase the alcohol directly through us. We legally can't do hybrid events (where we provide some and you provide the rest) but we can do either or.

Can you host a cash bar?

Yes! By partnering with another local vendor, we are able to host cash bars.

Where are you located and will you travel?

We are located in the heart of Nashville, TN. Travel within Davidson county is included in our base package pricing but it would be a waste of our wheels not to be up for a road trip! If you'd like Bar Magnolia to join you where your event is located, contact us so we can discuss the details.

Can you serve coffee/tea?

Absolutely! We love cocktails but we love coffee (and tea) just as much. We serve locally roasted coffee, delicious hot chocolate, and locally sourced tea. and we would love to follow up your cocktail hour with a coffee hour! This is a great option for dry brunch events, baby showers and coffee/dessert functions. Ask about our coffee packages when you book! 

What is your payment and refund policy?

We require a 50% deposit to confirm your reservation. You'll receive a full refund, minus a $200 administration fee, if you cancel more than 60 days from your event date, 50% of the deposit if you cancel more than 30 days from your event. Cancellations made within 30 days of your event will not be refunded. Reschedules are allowed for no additional fee but the refund policy is still based upon the original event date.

Do you have a rain date policy?

Unfortunately, due to our advanced booking model, we can not accommodate rain dates. The host is responsible for tent cover of the bar in the event of inclement weather. We are happy to work with your tent vendor to find the appropriate size tent for your event.

What are the technical requirements for the bars?

Our bars requires flat ground for setup and service, and clear access for set-up and break down. If your event is located somewhere without electricity and you’ve booked one of our bars requiring electricity, we can add a generator to your package.

How far in advance do we need to book?

Dates during peak season book up well in advance, but cancellations are possible, so it's always worth reaching out to see what we have available. That being said, earlier is always better.
