Teddy is the bomb. He is 100% on top of his game--always responsive and totally helpful. My guests adored him and his bartending services were appreciated by all. The bar was the one thing I did not have to worry about at all in the wedding planning chaos! Teddy and I worked out a bar menu, and he gave me a grocery list with all he needed to make his delicious cocktails. Super easy and cost effective. I've already recommended ABQ BarKeeps to several friends who are planning weddings. Hire them! You won't regret it.

Teddy was an excellent bartender! He was easy to communicate with, provided everything we needed for the event, and was professional and friendly. Several guests commented on how nice the bartender was! I would definitely work with him again for future events.
