I'd search for a Bartenders Kit - something like this - to get a good sense of what equipment you might want for the types of drinks you'll be making. I definitely wouldn't buy one of those kits because they're almost always crap, but just for reference.
Basics that I have in my bar are:
I just included the links for reference - you'll probably want to search a little for the highest-quality tools, because you really don't want flimsy stuff.
For glassware, I like to just pick out unique stuff that I find in my travels, but I have all the basics - rocks glasses, highball glasses, long-stem martini glasses, margarita glasses, pint glasses, Guinness glasses, a couple of snifters, and a Chimay glass.
For the booze it's kind of up to you, but just think about what liquor types a bar has in its speed-well for your base, and then just add higher-end, unique stuff from there. I always have a nice vodka, rum, tequila, gin, bourbon, irish whiskey, cognac, and brandy in the cabinet.
Then I have the popular mixers/liquers - Grand Marnier (skip the Triple Sec and get the good stuff), Bailey's, Kahlua, Amaretto, Limoncello, Frangelico, Chambord, White/Dark Creme de Cacao, Blue Curacao, Sweet/Dry Vermouth, sour mix and simple syrup, soda + tonic, juices, Fireball, various Schnapps, etc.
And then from there I just gradually collect bottles of high-end stuff that will get sipped slowly and dress the bar up a bit. Just picked up a bottle of Kraken that has one of the cooler labels I've ever seen (and tastes pretty damn good, too).
Have fun!
Could prolly just use cocktail sugar

I use a sponge dampened with soda water. If it's clumpy, you're getting the rim too wet.
The sugar-rimming sponges are relatively inexpensive on Amazon. IIRC I found a six pack for maybe $12.
Edit: 5 pack for $8.

YAY BIRTHDAYS! Already have your first drink planned? (I bought champagne and juiced some strawberries and oranges for a mimosa. Nommm.) Also, margaritas.
Really, on a Monday?
Margaritas anyone!?
EDIT: If I seriously had a dollar for every time I forgot to put the raffle on here... USA!^murica
Good news!
Now you go and make a Caesar boy! (Add a tsp of horseradish for extra kick).
p.s. Get one of these while you're at it.
