Venues: Crafted at the Port of Los Angeles

Over the last year I have been fortunate enough to be a frequent bartender vendor at Crafted at the Port of Los Angeles.

The venue - Crafted rental space are large warehouse areas.  There are two that I am aware of.  They are very large and can easily accommodate 200-300 guests.  They offer tables and some decorations that are pretty nice.  It is basically an open canvas for you to create your dream reception.  I've seen other weddings with a stage placed in the front area, with a dance floor set up in front of that. Live music is great in this venue.

Crafted bookings - As of recently, Crafted now handles booking through a vendor that does the coordinating.  Previously the people directly at Crafted and I dealt with them directly to meet the vendor insurance and licensing documentation.   So far I have not worked with the new vendor.  CLICK HERE to visit the Crafted page.


The bar -  Since the venue is just a large warehouse, there is no section of the bar.  I bring along my portable bar, folding tables, ice coolers, tubs and all the rest of the supplies to create a bar in any section needed.

The host of this event at Crafted rented high tables to set up a bar lounge area.

  

The host of this party hired a food vendor to bring in the food, the host rented several tables to lay out a buffet for guests to serve themselves.  A food vendor was hired to bring in the food.   

 The inside of the ware house can be set up to have tables set to the sides or in the middle of the room.   The hanging drapes are standard decor for the warehouse.

 This is the set up I bring with me to create a bar in the open space.  Portable bar in the middle, tables on each side and behind the bar.  The self serve table will require the host to rent the dispensers.  I only bring along one with me.   I do provide all the cups for cocktails, beer, and non alcoholic drinks.

This host hired a photo vendor that brought in a backdrop for VIP style photos for guests to enjoy.
