Hired on Thumbtack

Such a great experience from start to finish. She went above and beyond to make sure that we had everything we needed & even took over responsibilities that were not even hers just to help me. It’s a shame that 5 ⭐️’s is the most you can give because it’s just not enough. You cannot go wrong hiring Western Honey Bartending.

I reached out to Rylie over the summer about a December event, and we initially agreed on a rate for three days of service. I shared that I couldn’t confirm until closer to the event, which she understood. When I followed up the week before, she confirmed she had reviewed our original terms and was still available. I let her know we only needed two days instead of three. She noted her prices had increased but said she would still work with the budget we previously set. After that, communication paused despite my follow-ups to finalize details and send the deposit. She later attributed the delay to the holidays. However, when we reconnected, she quoted a new rate for two days that was significantly higher than the original three-day rate and stated that her agreements were only valid for 48 hours so our original agreement was no longer valid - something never mentioned before, including when she reconfirmed our original terms. It was disappointing to have the terms change so suddenly before the event. I can’t speak to her bartending service, but the agreement process I experienced was not great. In response to comment: Thanks for your response. I appreciate the clarification, though I do want to provide some context based on our actual messages which have been attached. When I shared over the summer that I would follow up at a later date to lock things in, your reply was “of course, no worries” - with no mention of a 48-hour window or any expiration of the agreement. Then, when I reached back out last week, you confirmed that you had found the details of our agreement and were still available for the dates discussed. At no point during our exchanges were any updated policies or expiration timelines communicated. When we reconnected last week, we were speaking in direct reference to the terms we had previously discussed (as seen in the attached messages). After mentioning that your prices had gone up, you stated that you were still willing to work within our original budget and that we should book as soon as possible. A new pricing sheet was never presented that included the new prices, in fact there was no conversation that ever communicated what the higher prices were because we were directly referencing the original agreement. We exchanged messages on Friday after the holiday without any issues. It wasn’t until late Friday afternoon, when I shared that we only needed 2 days instead of 3 that communication slowed (even though I offered a daily rate higher than the original daily rate agreed upon for 3 days). After following up several times for confirmation, you then mentioned you were out of office for the holidays and that we could speak Monday. When I followed up on Monday afternoon, a new quote was introduced for 2 days that exceeded the total amount originally quoted for 3 days of service - so unsure how this would be considered working within our original budget. Honoring our previously made agreement is not a requirement by any means. However, because it was stated multiple times throughout our conversations that you’d work within the specified budget and new a new pricing structure was never presented to share updated prices, packages, fees, or policies - the last minute change was completely unexpected. I fully understand that pricing can change and policies evolve, but it would have been extremely helpful to know upfront that you were no longer able to honor the original agreement - either over the summer when I said I’d reach back out, or last week when we began reviewing the details of the agreement again. That clarity early on would have avoided confusion on both sides.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I have a base rate and a sliding scale for those that need to stick with a specific budget.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I get all details from the client. After agreeing on package and price, I send over a contract and invoice. In order to be set on the calendar, the client must sign the contract and pay deposit unless previously discussed and agreed upon something different.
