Massachusetts Wedding Bar Packages & Pricing | Another Round Bar
🧾 Massachusetts Wedding Bar Packages & Pricing (2025)
One of the most common questions couples ask when planning their wedding bar is simple: “How much does it cost?”
At Another Round Bar, we keep pricing clear, upfront, and realistic — because Massachusetts couples deserve accurate numbers, not vague estimates.
Here’s what wedding bar service actually costs in today’s market.
🥂 1. Real Average Cost of a Wedding Bar in Massachusetts
Massachusetts pricing reflects licensed bartenders, liability coverage, bar rentals, and premium service — so the numbers are higher than outdated national averages.
Here’s a realistic breakdown for 4–6 hours of service:
• Small weddings (under 75 guests) — $2,000–$3,500
• Medium weddings (75–150 guests) — $3,500–$6,500
• Large weddings (150+ guests) — $6,500–$10,000+
💡 This typically includes hourly per-person pricing, staff, gratuity, bar setup, and full service. Add-ons like signature cocktails or premium rentals can increase cost.
🪙 2. How Pricing Works
Our pricing model is simple and predictable:
• $13 per person, per hour (open bar base rate)
• Staffing fees (based on guest count and service style)
• 20% standard gratuity
This structure gives couples transparent pricing without surprise charges later.
🍸 3. Bar Service Options
We offer flexible packages designed to fit different event styles and budgets:
• Open Bar — Full hosted experience for guests
