M. Dubach Barvermietung

M. Dubach Barvermietung is an event rental business that trades online as openairbar.ch, with the tagline "Alles für Ihren Event" (everything for your event). It rents mobile bars and places bar staff, offers a complete bar catering service, and rents a long list of party equipment, from a photo booth and candy bars to high tables, bar stools, linens, lighting and a fog machine. The pages linked here are its articles on renting a photo booth in Zurich and renting a candy bar, both of which name weddings.

The bar side

The site's menu lists the bar services directly: renting a bar, bar staff placement (Barpersonal Vermittlung), and bar catering as a complete service "von A-Z" (from A to Z). Around those, the menu lists bar stools, high tables, basket bottles, a mulled wine cooker, a coffee machine from JURA, power distributors and cable reels, so a couple setting up a bar at a venue without infrastructure can rent the pieces in one place.

The candy bar article describes the wider offer as an all-round service: rental of bar counters, bar elements, high tables, decorative items, lighting, DJ service and special effects. It also recommends hiring service staff for the celebration, and suggests a fog machine for special moments at a wedding.

For summer, the same article makes a practical point about drinks. An open-air bar, it says, carries a range of drinks, alcoholic and non-alcoholic, soft drinks and chilled lemonades, while a candy bar full of sweets is not ideal in hot sun at temperatures of 30 degrees. As an alternative it suggests a lemonade bar with several stations of cool drinks and iced fruit, which it calls both refreshing and good summer decoration.

The photo booth

The photo booth article describes the booth as entertainment that guests run themselves. With props and backdrops, guests can take funny, crazy or emotional pictures, and the page says a photo booth is always a hit and creates a relaxed atmosphere. Because guests handle it on their own, the couple delegates part of the entertainment and can concentrate on other things.

The page says the booth can be set up indoors or outdoors, that it is weatherproof and so independent of the weather, and that it is quick to set up and take down. For companies, it can be designed with a logo and corporate design, and the photos can be shared on social media. The article also advises booking early, because popular dates are often booked up quickly, and it lists the photo booth among the business's top offers alongside a JURA coffee machine and a prize wheel.

The candy bar

The candy bar article is written with weddings in mind. It calls a candy bar a special eye-catcher at a wedding, where guests meet for small talk and help themselves, and it says the idea comes from the United States. The business says it offers candy bars in a range of designs and will match the decorative elements to the theme of the party.

Decoration can be rented alongside: colorful linens and table covers, and items such as paper flower garlands, soft balls made of wool and fine vessels and bowls, in a variety of colors and formats. The article's advice is to place the candy bar where all guests can reach it easily and to open it straight after setup.

Other rentals

The menu lists much more: deck chairs, wooden wheels and wagon wheels for decoration, decorative heads, Halloween decoration, a handcart, LED spotlights, a ground fog machine, a soap bubble machine, and general decoration and accessories. It also has a page for event furniture and a section for used equipment for sale. For a rustic or garden wedding, the deck chairs, wheels and handcart are the kind of props a couple would otherwise have to find themselves.

Booking and contact

Contact is by email to info@openairbar.ch or by mobile on 076 532 08 60, and the pages link to an online form to order or inquire directly. The site's menu includes a price list page and a shop, so prices are published somewhere on the site, although the pages here do not show them. Couples should look at the price list before asking for a quote.

The menu also has a picture gallery and a page for partners and customers, which are the places to look for past events. The photo booth article's own advice on choosing a supplier is a fair checklist for this one too: look at the quality of the booth, the range of props and backdrops, and the prices and services included, and book early.

What the site does not settle

The pages here do not say where the business is based beyond the Zurich reference in the photo booth article, and they do not state a service area or travel charges. They do not say how many guests one bar serves, how many bartenders are placed for a wedding, whether drinks are included in the bar catering or supplied by the couple, or how the photo booth delivers its pictures.

The site is published in German, and it does not say whether staff work in English. Some of the site's blog content, reached from the candy bar article, covers unrelated topics such as casino bonuses and a fast-food chain's recycling, so couples should rely on the service pages and the price list rather than the blog for what the business offers.

Who it suits

M. Dubach Barvermietung suits couples in the Zurich area who are putting together a do-it-yourself or semi-catered wedding and need the physical pieces: a bar, bar stools, high tables, linens, lighting, a photo booth and a candy bar, with bar staff or a complete bar service added if wanted. The long rental list is its strength, especially for barns, gardens and open-air settings with nothing on site.

It is a rental and equipment business first, so couples looking for a cocktail specialist with a signature menu or a show should ask what the bar catering actually includes. The German-only site and the missing service area are points to clear up in the first message.
