Style is what sets a beverage dispenser apart from the more casual-looking carrier. Glass beverage dispensers are always in style. A wrought iron or stainless steel base is also a desirable feature. Some of the most elegant of beverage dispensers include gold or brass accents, making them ideal for fancy hotel banquets or catering a formal event.
 
When choosing a beverage dispenser, one of the most important considerations is the portability. If you will be moving it around a lot, look for a dispenser with handles, or a lightweight model made out of plastic. For a practical accessory, consider purchasing a model with a built-in drip tray. This will protect the white or colorful tablecloth at your buffet line or beverage station from being spilled or dripped on.
