Melanie did a fantastic job bartending for our event! She was so helpful during the planning process and stayed on top of every detail. When the day finally arrived, she went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect and felt like a truly special occasion. We can’t recommend her enough for any type of gathering!
I'm happy they felt special. This is what it's all about.

Melanie was the highlight of my event, she was very attentive to what everyone was drinking and ensured no one had an empty glass.☺️ Melanie was very professional, punctual and attentive; she arrived early to setup her station and her display was perfect.

All of my guest really loved my bartender! She’s not only made great drinks. She helped clean up in between time and axis gas if they wanted anything else. She went above and beyond what I was expecting 😃 great job thank you very much.

Melanie was by far an exceptional bartender at our daughters graduation party. We received numerous compliments from guest about her service. She was responsive, on time, professional and went above and beyond to make sure guest were well hydrated including the teenagers with non alcoholic drinks. You definitely get more than just bartending with Melanie and I would recommend her to anyone wanting exceptional bartending service for any event.
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I'm fair with my pricing. I include a lot of items like bar napkins, straws and some mixers. I like showing up prepared to make as many drinks as possible. Some things the planners may not think about. I offer some extra services if the planner needs as well; like picking up ice, shopping for for drinks and fruit.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I try to find out the details of the party to make things run smoothly and special.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been bartender for 30 years and can make just about any drink.
