About
At The Polished Pour, I specialize in creating elevated, memorable bar experiences for private events. With over 4 years of customer service experience and 2.5 years of bartending in high-volume environments, I bring both professionalism and personality to every event. I am a certified bartender and have experience working private events, which inspired me to launch my own mobile bartending business. I pride myself on attention to detail, great energy, and making sure every guest feels taken care of. Whether it’s a small gathering or a large celebration, I focus on delivering a smooth, stylish, and enjoyable experience from start to finish.

This really elevated my mom's 65 birthday party. I booked her services from out of State and she was easy to communicate with and very responsive! She worked with our theme and made adjustments wherever requested. The bar, custom drinks and service were excellent! Highly recommend and look forward to working with her for any future parties/celebrations in the Greensboro area.

We had a wonderful experience working with our bartender for our wedding! She was professional, reliable, and well-prepared from start to finish. I created our drink menu, and she guided me on exactly what ingredients and supplies to purchase. Once I had everything ready, she was able to prepare all the drinks on our menu.

She even came the day before the wedding to check out the venue and plan her setup, then arrived two hours before the event to make sure everything was ready on time. Her preparation, communication, and attention to detail gave us peace of mind on our big day.

We really appreciate her hard work and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and professional bartender for their event!

The Polished Pour was AMAZING from start to finish! We hired her for my husband Charles’ surprise 40th birthday celebration, and I truly couldn’t have been happier with the entire experience.

From the initial taste testing to helping us pick the perfect drinks for the menu, she was professional, patient, creative, and so easy to work with. What made it even better was that my husband was actually there during the tasting and had NO IDEA the drinks were being selected for his own surprise 40th birthday party! 😂 She played right along, never missed a beat, and kept the surprise completely intact. That alone showed me how much she cared about making the experience special.

And the drinks did NOT disappoint! The cocktails were delicious, but let me tell you—the mocktails were EVERYTHING! 😂 I am extremely picky when it comes to mocktails because I still want a good, flavorful, grown-up drink without the alcohol, and she absolutely understood the assignment! They were delicious, beautifully presented, and definitely did not feel like an afterthought.

On the day of the party, she was professional, personable, and brought such great energy to the celebration. Our guests were well taken care of, everything flowed smoothly, and her setup and drinks added the perfect touch to the night.

You can tell she takes pride in The Polished Pour and genuinely cares about the experience she provides her clients. I’m so glad we trusted her with such a special milestone celebration. I would absolutely book her again and recommend her without hesitation.

If you’re thinking about booking The Polished Pour—DO IT! From the planning and tasting to the actual event, the entire experience was top tier! 🥂💕✨

I had the honor and privilege to be served by Polished Pour by Kayla. The staff were very professional and friendly with amazing unique drinks to match. The best part of all was the drinks were specifically curated for our event.
