How to Book a Daiquiri Trailer for a New Orleans Wedding

Every New Orleans wedding has the same moment. Toasts are done, the band is warming up, and the crowd needs something to hold. A purple daiquiri trailer parked in the courtyard handles that moment better than a signature cocktail nobody can pronounce.

When to bring us in

Most couples put us on the reception end of the night, right when the seated portion breaks up. Some park us at the second line send-off so guests get a frozen cup for the walk. A few brave ones run us during cocktail hour, which is charming, chaotic, and always the most photographed hour of the wedding.

What we need from your venue

A flat parking spot roughly the size of a large SUV, and access to power. That is the short list. We bring the machine, the mix, the ice, the cups, the straws, and the crew. If your venue has a coordinator, put us in touch early. Courtyards in the Quarter and Marigny have gate widths worth measuring before the day of.

Guest count and flavors

Two flavors on tap covers most weddings: the original Purple Drank plus one lighter option. Larger receptions go three or four so there is something for the folks who claim they do not like purple, then drink two of them anyway. Every flavor can be poured as a virgin frozen version, so kids, expecting guests, and designated drivers get the same cup in the photos.

Cost and deposit

Packages are priced by hours, guest count, and how many flavors you want running. A deposit holds your date. Mardi Gras season, festival weekends, and October Saturdays go first, so if your date is anywhere near one of those, lock it in as early as you can.

Licensing and peace of mind

We run as a licensed and insured mobile bar service, and we can provide a certificate of insurance for venues that require one. Our crew cards guests, paces service, and knows when to switch someone to the virgin pour without making it a scene.

The part people remember

Nobody goes home talking about the napkin color. They talk about the purple cup with the red-and-white straw that showed up in every single photo on the dance floor. That is the whole pitch.
