Calabasas events are gated-community events. The Oaks, Calabasas Hills and Mountain View Estates all run vendor clearance, and the difference between a smooth setup and a two-hour delay at the gate is paperwork submitted a week early.
Calabasas events demand a level of polish that generic caterers simply can't match. Our founder personally oversees every 90210 event, from the initial cocktail-pairing conversation to the final glass polished at midnight. This is why we cap our monthly Calabasas bookings — quality doesn't scale without it.
Calabasas is not just a ZIP code — it's a set of expectations. Trophy kitchens, museum-quality art, guest lists that read like a Vanity Fair issue. The bar has to match. Our founding-client rates in Calabasas reflect what your neighbors are paying: below the invisible five-figure minimums that established BH-only caterers quote, but with the same white-glove standards.
Our dry-hire model was built for Calabasas hosts who want great cocktails without the 300% catering markup on liquor. You buy the alcohol at retail (many stores accept returns on unopened bottles), and we bring the bartenders, portable bar setup, premium mixers, fresh garnish, ice program, glassware and menu design. Everything except the bottles.

Yes. Every gated community in Calabasas wants vendor details ahead of time — crew names, vehicle, and in some cases certificates. Give us the community name at booking and we submit it a week out so nobody waits at the gate.
Grand covers 150-200 guests with 3 bartenders, 5 hours and a 12-foot double bar at $2,795. Above 200 we build a custom quote with additional service points.
Yes, and it is the norm. We handle beverage only — your caterer handles food. We coordinate timing directly with them so cocktail hour and dinner service do not collide.
Included on Signature, Premier and Grand. On Intimate it falls outside the 25-mile radius from most starting points, so there is a travel line quoted upfront at $2 per round-trip mile.
