We hired Mia to bartend a technology event in downtown LA, and she did a stellar job. She made the whole process easy from beginning to end and helped with suggestions for shopping, drinks, etc. I was very thankful that she was able to handle her own. You can tell she has experience, and that means one less thing for me to stress about! Her drinks were fantastic, service was fast and our guests were happy. What more is there to say? We will definitely use her services again.

Alex! I cannot wait to join you all again! The space was awesome, the community was fun and interesting, and yes, the feedback seemed to be great! Thanks for contributing to the evening, and allowing me to put my best foot forward. You trusted me, you gave me the opportunity to work some magic, and people loved the outcome. You guys are incredible at what you do, and I hope to continue to support you in your efforts toward cyber-security and making information available to folks who don't think much about it. Best way to have that conversation (or most conversations) is over a cocktail. So let's do it again! Thank you, so much, for the honor of joining you and the team! Sincerely, Mia

I can't say enough wonderful words about Mia! From beginning to end she was fabulous. Her profile summary intrigued us and upon speaking with her we were sold. She is super helpful and kind with a really positive energy. We were purchasing our own drinks and garnishes, she walked us through the whole process making sure we were comfortable every step of the way. All our guests had nothing but amazing things to say about Mia for our reception. I never saw a line and saw lots and lots of smiles around the bar. All the check boxes were exceeded! If we ever need a bartender for any reason at all, we will DEFINITELY contact Mia! Wonderful professional, better person.

Mia was my bartender at my wedding and everyone was happily drinking and having the best time ever! I supplied her two options of drinks, beer and margaritas but she went above and beyond to bring extra add ons to make a couple more options for the margaritas. Also, I didn't have time to get the limes and salt prepared for her and she offered to do it with no problem at all! She is a very happy and outgoing girl! She even ended up making friends with my guests. She is a very likable person and a lot of fun! I would recommend her to bartend any event!! :)

Melissa! First off, you and Nick are an incredible couple. From the moment I stepped on the property Nick was making sure I had everything I needed. He and the guys even helped me with the kegs (Lord knows they're twice my weight lol)! But what a gorgeous day and venue, it was perfect! Thank you for allowing me to share in the festivities! And I am so glad I decided to bring some extras along! The spiked pink lemonade margaritas were a hit! I am wishing you and Nick an amazing future together. I'm sure I'll be seeing you at some point... since Joe's my music soulmate and all, hahaha! XOXO, Mia

Mia was everything we could have hoped for! She was extremely hardworking, efficient, professional, kind, & a perfect addition to our intimate wedding environment. She knew all the classic cocktails, & every drink she made was on-point. She was personable & great with making special concoctions for the kids. On my side of the family, we have 5 nieces & 5 nephews, aged 8 months to 10 years old, so that interaction was important to me. She did not disappoint. She arrived early & was flexible when we asked Mia to stay an extra hour. Our wedding was in San Diego, but we live in the Orange County area, so we appreciate how much she traveled to take care of us & our guests on our special day. We had multiple people come up to us & comment how great our bartender was!! She even brought my husband & I a wedding card, which was very thoughtful. Please do not hesitate to hire Mia. If you have found her, hire her!!
Mia's Martini's reply
Katherine! Oh, how this warms my heart! Thank you so much for the feedback! It is such a privilege to witness the union of two people, but an even greater gift to leave feeling like a part of the family. THANK YOU for being so hospitable, friendly, generous and fun to work with and for! I cannot wait until our next celebration, and I am wishing you and Seth the most outrageous, deep, expansive love. You two are beautiful together and I am so grateful to have met you! Sincerely, Mia

Mia was awesome, see took care of everything. All of the guest raved about her. We have hired bartenders before and they were okay, but they did not compare to Mia! I highly recommend for any type of party.
Mia's Martini's reply
Denise, I am NOT going to lie. You scared me, lol! Usually it's so easy with my clients right off the bat, but you were a tough cookie. It's a good thing we had a whole evening to get better acquainted... but it's an even better thing that you ended up having such an incredible time! The martini's were delicious (great picks), and the shots were exactly what you were craving (you asked me to work my magic and I did)... and most of all, the people were fantastic! I have not been that entertained in a while lol! You guys really know how to have a good time, and I was so incredibly grateful to be in the midst of it all! Thank you so much for having me! I look forward to seeing you for your 60th in just a few months! Sincerely, Mia
