The bar on wheels is a trend we can certainly get behind. A lot of roaming bartender services have been popping up all over these days, and there are a ton of whimsical, classic, or rustic styles of vehicle to choose from. One trend making the rounds is DIY converted horse trailer bars, which makes a ton of sense since they are tall enough to walk up to, and not as pricey as buying a whole camper or food truck.

The Repurposed Antique Furniture Bar

If you're going for shabby chic, a furniture bar may be the way to go. This is such a fun flip on the classic bar - think of anything with a flat surface that normally belongs inside - put it outside, put some drinks and flowers on it, and there you have it! https://www.whiskeymade.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/10-The-wedding-bar-was-done-with-a-vintage-dresser-and-marquee-letters.jpghttps://www.whiskeymade.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/drink_bar_42.jpghttps://www.whiskeymade.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/596b057100d6a5d241b61916d3e00ebd-fruit-wedding-sangria-wedding.jpghttps://www.whiskeymade.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/diy-bar-at-wedding-50-outdoor-bar-ideas-for-outdoor-project-kitchen-of-diy-bar-at-wedding.jpg

The Wood Pallet Wedding Bar

Easy to find, super functional, and classically rustic - it's tough to go wrong when you're using pallets as part of your country style wedding decor. They're fantastic for pulling apart to use as building material, or just on their own. The gaps between the slats are the perfect size for tucking flowers, or adding hooks. Bonus - they're usually free if you know where to look! You do want to be careful with making anything for inside your home with wood pallets as they're sometimes treated with chemicals. Do a little Googling on pallet safety if you're concerned - many pallets are totally safe to use. https://www.whiskeymade.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/d95f1b40599bfc24203c7be74012e6b2-1.jpghttps://www.whiskeymade.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/079e2a3b366b04b9ecf178c607b46991.jpghttps://www.whiskeymade.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/e0b3f6e8bb2aa5e1e726f552a1e44419-wedding-drink-stations-wedding-bar-table.jpghttps://www.whiskeymade.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/0825432dba3ad74bbf8b6be3efe0164a.jpghttps://www.whiskeymade.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Pallet-Bar.jpghttps://www.whiskeymade.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/WWW-32.jpghttps://www.whiskeymade.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/captivating-wedding-bar-ideas-1000-ideas-about-rustic-wedding-bar-on-pinterest-personalized.jpghttps://www.whiskeymade.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/13385-e1547526451249.jpg
