I recently had the pleasure of hiring a bartender for my daughter's Sweet 16 celebration, and I am absolutely thrilled to share my outstanding experience. Dave went above and beyond to make the event truly special, and I couldn't be more pleased with the service provided. From the moment Dave arrived at the venue, their professionalism and enthusiasm were evident. They not only brought an impressive skill set but also an engaging and friendly personality that instantly resonated with our guests. It was clear that they were dedicated to ensuring our event was a success.

Dave and his team were amazing during my wedding on 7/20. Their signature cocktails were beautiful and refreshing, and consistently made throughout the night. Dave went above and beyond to ensure that we had everything we needed, including services outside of the scope of what we hired him to do. He and his team exuded professionalism and a high level of customer service in the face demanding guests. I highly recommend for anyone’s event and would hire again.
