Last update: March 2026

Black Ducks is a premium mobile bar and events company based in Northamptonshire, specialising in weddings and private celebrations. Our beautifully converted horsebox bars are ideal for outdoor settings, while our handcrafted modular bar systems work seamlessly indoors or out. Every bar can be styled to complement your venue and wedding aesthetic, ensuring it feels like a natural part of the day rather than an add-on.

We pride ourselves on working closely with couples, venues, and suppliers to deliver a smooth, professional service from planning through to last orders.

In addition to mobile bar hire, we are also the venue managers for Duston Mill in Northampton. At Duston Mill, we offer a fully integrated, end-to-end wedding service — from bar and drinks provision through to event management and the legal aspects of your ceremony — allowing couples to plan their entire day through a single, experienced team.

Services Offered

Black Ducks offers flexible bar solutions tailored to your event, including both pre-paid and cash bar options. We can also provide:

  • Welcome drinks for your reception

  • Table wine and water for the wedding breakfast

  • Champagne or prosecco for speeches and toasts

  • A fully staffed and stocked evening bar

We understand that wedding planning can be time-consuming and, at times, overwhelming. That’s why we focus on clear communication, careful planning, and reliable delivery, ensuring your drinks service is one less thing to worry about. Whether you’re hosting an intimate gathering or a large celebration, we’ll design a bar setup that fits your guest numbers, venue, and vision perfectly.

Fantastic :)



Jimmy and Clare supplied a drinks package for our wedding 02.09.23.They personalised to what we wanted, including lush cocktails that went down so well with our guests! All of our guests were tipsy, happy and not queuing for drinks. Honest, professional, straight forward suppliers and great communication from start to finish.

Superb from start to finish

Jimmy and his Team ran the bar at our wedding back in September! From first contact to after the event, Jimmy was superb! The guys went above and beyond to make sure our big day ran smoothly.

With a large wedding with lots of heavy drinkers, the bar was a major concern for us!
Thankfully Jimmy’s guys nailed it!
Quick but attentive service and short queues, great selection of drinks and they never ran out of anything!

Would highly recommend

Fantastic wedding bar

Jimmy and his team were amazing on the day of our wedding and with the planning up to the day. He was very quick to reply to any questions and put together the perfect package for us.
The bar was very well stocked and had everything you could have needed and wanted. Would highly recommend Black Ducks and would be using them again whenever we next need a bar.

So much more than just a bar!

Black Ducks bar company was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding! From the very first email, Jimmy and Clare filled us with confidence about their part in our big day. Nothing was too much for them; they went above and beyond the responsibilities of a bar.
The staff were fun, enthusiastic and managed to keep serving to a busy crowd all night, all the while smiling (despite it being the hottest day of the year!!).
We got loads of compliments on the bar at our wedding and would not hesitate to use them again.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
