How we run a The Hammocks party
The Hammocks is a real drive from us, about 21 miles southwest. For a party that matters in exactly one way: we settle your access, parking and load-in before the truck leaves, because sorting it out on arrival costs a distance we have already spent.
Kendall West sits about 3 miles from The Hammocks, with Kendale Lakes and Richmond West following. Worth knowing while you are choosing a venue for a party, because a room just over the line is priced exactly like a room in town.
There is no The Hammocks city hall to call — it is an unincorporated area of Miami-Dade. For a party that usually simplifies things: one county rulebook, plus whatever your community says about vehicles and hours.
What you actually book for a The Hammocks party is a licensed, insured team, a bar that photographs well, and a drinks list built with you rather than handed to you. What you do not book is a stranger who turns up and asks where the ice is.
Plans change. A The Hammocks party can be moved free of charge up to 48 hours before the date, which is the part of the terms people most often end up needing.
Every mobile bartender we run in The Hammocks is quoted from the same rate card as the rest of Miami-Dade, so the number the wizard gives you is the number we honour when you book it.
Can you handle a large party in The Hammocks?
Yes — staffing scales with the headcount and the bar is built to match. For context, half the bartending quotes we write are for 50 guests or fewer, so a bigger room is a question of more hands and more ice rather than a different service.
Put the guest count and the timeline into the wizard and it prices the staffing for you.
Can the bar go outdoors for a The Hammocks party?
Usually, and most of ours do. Let us know the surface and whether there is shade — a bar on grass and a bar on a patio are built differently.
Ice and coolers are portioned to your guest count either way, so the drinks stay cold from setup through to last call.
Do you clean up after a The Hammocks party?
Breakdown is part of the booking — the bar comes down, everything returns to the truck, and the space is left as we found it.
That holds at about 21 miles out as firmly as it does next door to the yard.
How many drinks should I plan for per guest?
It depends far more on the length of service than on the headcount, which is why the wizard asks for hours before it asks for anything else.
Tell it your guest count and how long you want the bar open and it will size the ice, mixers and serveware for you.
Can the bar stay open longer on the night?
Often, if the crew's schedule allows it. Extra time is added at the same hourly rate rather than at a penalty rate.
It is worth deciding in advance where you want last call, because the hour people regret is almost always the last one.
How do I book a party in The Hammocks?
Price it here, then hold the date with a 25% deposit. The balance falls due 48 hours before the party.
The deposit is fully refundable until 7 days out, and the date can be moved free of charge up to 48 hours before.
