Book Boomtown and Scissortail Together for a Bar Everyone Can Enjoy

Most event bars take great care of the guests who drink, and leave everyone else with a water and a Sprite. Think about the people on your list who do not drink: a pregnant cousin, your designated drivers, the kids, a friend in recovery, anyone simply taking it easy that night. That can be a quarter of the room, and they deserve a drink they are excited to hold too.

When you book Boomtown and Scissortail together, your whole guest list is the audience.

What Each Brand Brings to Your Event

Boomtown Bartenders:

• A professional, ABLE-licensed bartending crew
• The full bar toolkit (shakers, jiggers, strainers, muddlers) and our own matching, rolling ice chests so you never wrangle dirty mismatched coolers (ice itself is a simple per-guest add-on; bar structure and glassware come through our sister company Pipe It Up)
• Cocktail service for the beer, wine, and spirits you supply
• Liquor liability and general liability insurance
• Responsible service and ID verification

Scissortail Bartending:

• A zero-proof cocktail menu made with the same care as the bar program
• A dirty soda station that is interactive and great for all ages
• A hydration station with infused waters and electrolyte options
• Kid-friendly drinks that go well beyond juice boxes
• Seasonal and custom zero-proof drinks built around your theme

How the Two Work Together at Your Event

You get one beverage program with coordinated service, not two vendors who happened to show up the same day:

• One Crew Leader for everything: A single Crew Leader runs both the bar and the zero-proof stations, so the standards and the flow stay consistent all night.
• Menus that match: Your cocktail menu and your zero-proof menu are designed to pair. If your signature cocktail is a grapefruit-bourbon smash, your guests who skip the alcohol can reach for the Scissortail Sunset, our signature zero-proof mocktail with its bright blood-orange citrus profile and deep Oklahoma-sunset color.
• Two gathering spots, no bottleneck: We place the bar and the Scissortail station to create two natural gathering points, so your guests flow between them instead of waiting in one long line.
• Everyone's drink looks great: Same garnishes, same care, same presentation across both stations. A guest holding a Scissortail zero-proof cocktail looks just like a guest holding a bar cocktail, so no one has to explain why they are not drinking.

Why This Is a Smart Choice for You

• You buy less alcohol: When the zero-proof options are genuinely good, 15 to 20 percent of guests who would have ordered a cocktail choose one instead. That means fewer bottles on your shopping list.
• Less risk to manage: More zero-proof drinks across the room means lower overall intoxication, which is easier and safer for everyone.
• Every guest is happy: All of your guests have a drink they love, not just the ones at the bar.
• More photos worth sharing: Dirty soda stations and beautiful zero-proof cocktails get just as many phone snapshots as the main bar, so your celebration keeps showing up in feeds long after the last toast.

Who Books the Combo

• Weddings with a wide mix of ages and drinking preferences
• Corporate events where you want the beverage experience to feel premium while keeping drinking moderate
• Family reunions and community celebrations
• Hosts who want a full program without the price of a full-service catering bar

What Happens as Your Guest Count Grows

"Scissortail supplies bartenders, but for larger weddings, we will recommend barbacks or servers to supplement the flow," explains founder Patrick Wilson. "It's all about finding the right balance between price and service."

Here is something most people do not expect. At higher guest counts, Bar-Key's full-service packages can actually become the better value for you. Bar-Key weddings start at $900, Bar-Key events start at $825, and the math shifts once we are coordinating crew, bar supply, and beverage programs at a larger scale. We will always point you to the option that gives you the most for your money, even if that means moving you up to a different brand in our family.

Boomtown and Scissortail are sister brands under the Bar-Key Global family, and we built them to work together on purpose. You get one crew, one coordinator, one invoice, and two complete beverage programs for your event.
