Sue was absolutely wonderful! For the 1st time I got to sit back relax and enjoy our party. She did everything from set up, serve, made drinks and cleaned up. I had nothing to worry about. She took initiative to wrap everything and make sure the house was in great shape before she left. I will be using her again and strongly recommend her!!

We hired Sue for our wedding, which had roughly 50 guests. Sue recommended her coworker Ashley for additional help. Both Sue and Ashley were extremely professional and their efforts helped make our wedding seamless. Their main tasks included setting up our buffet and dessert tables (and flipping between the two), bussing tables, preparation of our linens & plates & silverware for return to our tableware rental company, and assisting with the tear down and packing up of our wedding decor.


They did a spectacular job, and played a key role in making our wedding a success, rolling with the punches all night. I would strongly recommend Sue (and Ashley) for anyone interested in booking event help or wait staff

Sue was great! She responded very quickly to my initial inquiry and then helped find additional help for our party as I needed a second server. She was excellent with communication and arrived right on time for the event. She jumped right in to help with set up and then made sure my guests were taken care of throughout the night so I didn't have to worry about anything. And she has a wonderful demeanor and was really welcoming to my guests. I will definitely work with Sue again.

Sue was outstanding. She was so lovely and incredibly helpful with all aspects of my mom’s party from start to finish - setting up, pouring drinks, clearing plates, serving cake, and cleaning up. I am so grateful that we found her. Having her there meant we could focus on our guests and have a good time. She was warm, professional, and excellent at all aspects of hosting and made the event easy and enjoyable for us. I can’t recommend her highly enough. She’s truly the best - I would hire her again in a heartbeat.

Sue was an absolute dream in helping with my daughters first birthday party! She arrived early and rolled her sleeves up to help us with anything and everything for every minute she was there. She did everything from helping with set up and clean up to food set up and serving, drink set up and serving and more! The best part was she didn’t need direction or hand holding and somehow managed the perfect balance of asking questions when she needed clarity and being super effective without being told. That’s a very hard balance to achieve and it really allowed us to enjoy our event and spend time with our guests. And of course, most importantly she did all of it with a super friendly and kind attitude which made working with her the best experience ever. We will definitely make Sue a core part of every big event we plan in the future!
