Our Winter 2019 issue featured The Bubble Tap Trailer in our Discoveries section; however, if you'd rather trade in prosecco served from a darling converted camper trailer for crafted cocktails, Yes Cocktail Co.'s "The Charlotte" trailer bar (pictured above) is available for wedding events. The dark wood details work beautifully for a rustic-chic wedding or a chic addition to an alfresco rehearsal dinner. The husband-and-wife team behind the mobile bar and cocktail company also sell craft libations featuring locally sourced, entirely natural ingredients, so you can have hand-crafted cocktails at home (or at your wedding!).
