I’ve used Melanie’s service twice for birthday parties of 50 guests held at my house, and both times I was incredibly pleased. Her staff works really hard and did everything that was requested as discussed. My guests took notice of the staff’s professionalism and saw the value in using her team for their own events. I highly recommend her service and will use again in the future.

Melanie's team (Stephanie and McKenna) was far and away the most valuable team at my wedding. Melanie had great questions and suggestions during our introductory call that helped shape the plan for the day. Her staff arrived prepared and ready to help. My guests told me that their service was polite and responsive; any issues that arose, they took care of immediately. I briefed them on a high-level plan, but ultimately they took charge of what needed to be done on their own so that we could enjoy the party. They checked in with me regularly, and ensured that we kept on-schedule. I was particularly grateful that they quietly began cleanup activities ahead of time, so that we finished cleanup in time for our venue's end time. I will be recommending Melanie's to everyone I know!

Melanie made our event extra special. She was professional, responsive, knowledgeable, upbeat and very efficient. She allowed for myself as the host to really enjoy the event. I highly recommend Melanie, and will certainly have her at our next event!

I hired Melanie for my husband’s 50th birthday party with 32 guests, and she and her team exceeded expectations. They arrived promptly, set up seamlessly, and worked tirelessly throughout the event. Melanie’s drinks, especially her smoked old-fashioned, were absolutely delicious and beautifully garnished. Her vibrant personality and positive vibe truly elevated the atmosphere. Plus, they left my home spotless and organized—no cleanup needed on my part. Melanie is the absolute best—do yourself a favor and hire her! You won’t regret it.
