Great wedding last Saturday at Holy Rude Church up in the old town in Stirling. It was a bit of a battle with the elements with blistering winds and rain but in true Reel Time Bars fashion we battled on and put on a great mobile cocktail bar service.
The crowd were great and we served a number of great drinks. Our ice cold bottles of Amstell went down a treat as did a number of our cocktails including our famous Reel Time White Russian. Also a number of Mojito’s and Moscow mules which we brought in special copper mugs to serve from. Nice we touch.
On the bar we had the Martin brothers , Steve and Paul, both cocktail bartenders of the highest standard and they made the bar service , despite being busy , look effortless and professional. Thanks guys. We also had Jordan and Naomi pulling the strings behind the scenes ensuring that the bar was well stocked, organised and tidy. Well done guys. Many thanks for your hard work.

Strange job yesterday ; we had to negotiate our mobile bars round dinosaurs, and other prehistoric creatures! No sadly we haven’t created a time machine (although we are working on it) , we were at the National Museum on Chamber Street in Edinburgh installing 6 mobile bar units for the new museum lates events.
We were given a 30 minute window to install 6 great event bars and in true fashion we were complete in 18 minutes. Think we should of maybe all chose a career in the military!

It was a pretty inconsistent July for the weather but one thing that was a guarantee was a great month for weddings! Reel Time Bars were all over Scotland from Loch Lomond to Aberdeen and back to Edinburgh! At the beginning of July we headed up to Boturich Castle to set up a bar in their purpose built marquee. There were cocktails flowing all evening with the ladies drinking Cosmos and the gentry on Mojitos. It was a beautiful day and we even had a moment to take in the breathtaking view across Loch Lomond.
When you have a wedding party ranging from Geordies to Canadians and the wedding weekend is based in Scotland there is only one thing to do…….cocktails and highland games! We arrived at a rather wet Harburn House on a Friday afternoon with cabers, ponchos, cocktail shakers and a haggis, not a usual Friday but a fun filled day was ahead. We set up a mobile bar in one of the houses many grand rooms and prepared to start one of our signature cocktail masterclasses for 20 eager ladies. We taught the ladies how to make a range of classic cocktails, spoke in depth about the classics and most importantly ………drank the classics. As the ladies were giving their best Tom Cruise impression the men participated in a highland games led by our in house “heavy”. They were taught how to toss a caber, throw a hammer and most importantly how to throw a haggis at a whisky bottle! A fun filled day was certainly had.
There were some smartly dressed men and some elegantly dressed ladies when we hosted a cocktail party in the West of Glasgow for a birthday bash. We set up a bar and sold a wide variety of cocktails from sidecars to martinis! We even launched our new and exclusive Scottish Malt Whisky Society malt of the month which went down incredibly well with the gentlemen. A good night was had by the guests and by the staff, everyone leaving with a smile on their face!
Well, a busy July is over which brought many different events in lots of different venues. We look ahead now to August which brings with it the Edinburgh International Festival, late nights and a lot more weddings!
It’s all said and done, it’s reel, and it’s been fun!

Reel Time Bars were down in the Scottish Borders last weekend for a double header bar job. On the Friday Judith Morton and Andrew Johnston were getting married in a marquee just outside Melrose.
On the Saturday, it happened to be the grooms brothers 29th birthday. With a marquee up anyway, it seemed a good excuse for another party.
Friday night was great night with the bar team doing a good job keeping up service for 100 thirsty borders boys. Mark, our bar manager, shook 100 cocktails alone, on top of the rest of the orders, and was looking somewhat jaded the next day. All in all it was a great day, and it was a pleasure serving the friendly crowd. The Saturday night was similarly enjoyable (for us at least, few weary looking faces after the previous nights festivities) and everyone drank and danced into the small hours.
