About
Hey! I'm Ashley!
Are you tired of spending time setting up and cleaning up instead of spending time with your guests? You're in luck, that's where I come in!
I specialize in bartending and service. I have at least 10 years experience in high end restaurants serving and 7 years experience of bartending. I am BASSET certified, which allows me to serve alcohol on premises responsibily. I am very personable and I have great communication. Depending on the size of the party, I can have extra co-workers help me.
I look forward to working with you!

I hired Ashley to bartend for a function I held in my home. She was fantastic!
She arrived promptly and was such a hard worker and so professional. All my guests truly enjoyed interacting with her!
Aside from the bartending, she also cleared plates, washed dishes and went to the tables and poured wine.
I highly recommend Ashley. She is a gem and made hosting my party so much easier!

We had the most amazing experience with Ashley bartending at our wedding. She truly went above and beyond the entire night, and all of our guests were blown away by her. Considering it was a very DIY wedding, her help was especially valuable.

If I could give Ashley 6 stars, I would. We hired Ashley to bartend our wedding last weekend, and she just did such an incredible job. She is incredibly responsive and professional, and took a ton of stress out of our lives!
We had multiple check ins before the wedding to coordinate on drink menus, what each of us would be responsible for bringing, and so much more. She even went the extra mile to be responsible for custom drink signs like the one attached here.
If my wife and I ever have another large event, Ashley will be the first person we call. Thank you so much for everything!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Ashley and Adriane on a party I planned for 30 guests. Their professionalism was evident from our very first call. They consistently maintained a high standard throughout the evening. Each interaction was enhanced by their charming demeanor, which created a welcoming and enjoyable atmosphere.
What truly stood out was their attentiveness - they adjusted to my preferences intuitively, ensuring guests' glasses were never empty and my experience was seamless. Moreover, their discretion was commendable. They respected the host's privacy and acted with subtlety, providing outstanding service without ever being intrusive.
Overall, Ashley and Adriane exemplify the best qualities of hospitality. I highly recommend their service to anyone seeking an experience marked by professionalism, charm, and thoughtful attention. I will definitely use them again!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing will be discussed once we connect. If I have to travel more than 60 mins, a $30 travel fee will be added.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Connecting and finding out what type of party they are hosting and if there are any special requests. I will put together a special drink menu for them and we will coordinate how to obtain what we need in order for me to be successful. Communication is key for me. I want to take stress off my host and fill in wherever I am needed.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have 15 years restaurant serving experience, and 6 years bartending. I have had lots of training to become good at what I do. I can talk to anyone about anything. I am also BASSET certified, which allows me to serve alcohol on premises responsibly.
