About
At Executive Bartending, we bring the bar – and the experience – to you. With 24 years in business and a passion for true hospitality, my team and I focus on elegant, personalized service that lets you relax and enjoy your event.
You provide the alcohol; I handle the rest: garnishes, bar tools, napkins, disposable cups, and a complimentary specialty cocktail designed just for your occasion. I’m RAMP certified and a graduate of the Main Line Center of Bartending, and event insurance can be added for an additional $100 when needed.
I love meeting guests from all walks of life and creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere where everyone feels taken care of. Whether it’s a classic Old Fashioned or a simple beer, every drink is crafted with care.
Reach out today and let’s start planning your perfect bar experience.
We serve Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey and New York

Executive Bartending provided the bartending services for our son and daughter-in-law’s wedding, and I cannot recommend them highly enough! Marlon and Carlton were great, and we had several guests comment to this effect as well. Our cocktail hour started earlier than anticipated due to an oversight on my part, and of course everyone went to the bar - Marlton and Carlton went with the flow and handled this scheduling glitch very professionally, I was very grateful! If you have a special occasion and want to make sure everything is top quality, hire Executive Bartending!
Marlon and Dwayne made my wife’s birthday unforgettable. Marlon was responsive and coordinated everything with me with little notice. Dwayne showed up on time and was a hit with all my guests. Cocktails were amazing and the set up was professional. Would use them again in a heartbeat for a small or large event.
