The Mane Event Mobile Bar is a woman-owned mobile bartending service based in Northern New Jersey, founded by two friends with over 35 years of combined hospitality experience, and ironically the same first name, just spelled differently, because apparently one wasn’t confusing enough.

What started behind a small-town bar has grown into a unique event experience featuring a beautifully restored 1994 horse trailer bar, customizable décor, and professional ServSafe & TIPS certified bartenders.

As a dry-hire service, they provide everything except the alcohol, making it easy for clients to create a personalized drink menu without the added cost. From weddings and corporate events to backyard celebrations, they bring exceptional service, signature cocktails, mocktails, wine, beer, and a little extra charm to every occasion.
