Fun lemonade stand wedding bar


Surely, one of my very first mobile bar experiences had to be the time I set up a lemonade stand, for my mother's big garage sale back in the late 80's. As a way to make a few extra nickles, I created a well equipped umbrella shaded, fresh lemon packin, only 5 cents a serving, lemonade stand. What fun it was to create that advertising sign, "Made in the shade and stirred with a dog's hind leg". Some of you may not have had the chance to do this as a child, but either way, you have probably seen or visited one.


This was the source for one of our mobile bar creations last summer. Our version featured a little more than your typical non-alcoholic lemonades, but you can make it work both ways. We started off with a 4' table and covered it with a disposable yellow plaid table cover. Next, we filled a huge glass vase with fresh cut limes and strawberries. Just behind the bar area we placed a huge shady umbrella over the entire table, sat our bartender in a chair, and put him to work behind the blender. Ofcourse, we topped this all off with a custom sign that you can view above. If you need a custom designed bar idea for your event be sure to give BarBop.com a call.
