Oh. My. Gosh. Christopher was fabulous! He was amazingly fun and exactly what we didn't realize we wanted! So many of our guests commented on how great he was and that says a lot! He went above and beyond and my family couldn't stop talking about how helpful he was. He made our magical wedding even better! Thank you so very much Christopher!

Chris was a great bartender. He was there early to set up. Chris remembered what people were drinking. He bussed tables and helped take out the trash at the end. He helped make this a great event.

I had to take a few days to collect my thoughts for this review because Chris was just that fantastic. I hired a "private bartender" but what I really got was a "host for hire". Our event was at a private residence for a large group of friends. Chris made everyone feel at ease, making conversation, but also not interrupting the flow of conversation happening in the group. He offered to help keep the catered food moving in the oven, pulled up plates and silverware, and let us know when it was ready. Throughout the night he circled the room, offering to refill drinks, removing dirty plates, etc. At the serving area he even packed up the leftover food into Tupperware he found in the cupboards. Basically - I was a guest at my own party! I was 100% in each moment, connecting with old friends, having quality time, and not worrying about food drinks, or even post party clean up. I am very actively thinking about events I could have to use Chris again because I had such an awesome time! I am used to having to be the host, and I'd loved handing all those responsibilities over to someone who picked them up flawlessly. It's worth noting that we also connected a couple times before the event to brainstorm some special signature drinks. He made it super fun - using both fire and dry ice. It was a beginning to end blast and he was an amazing value!

If you need a bartender for any event, THIS IS YOUR PERSON. He is SO responsive, helpful, and professional - not to mention the pricing is extremely fair. We hired him for our wedding rehearsal dinner and we’re so so happy we did. I reached out about everything and always got timely responses (how much alcohol to buy, popular drinks, etc.). More than half the party went out of there way to compliment me on his bartending services and were so positively surprised with the quality of his work as the only bartender for 50+ people. He was polite and went out of his way to keep everyone happy with full drinks at all times. I cannot say enough good things. Bottom line - IF YOU NEED A HIGH QUALITY BARTENDER, YOU FOUND ONE. You will not regret it!!
