Mel added elegance to my 75th birthday party - far more than I would have imagined. Her signature drinks were a hit! She also helped to clean up which was an added bonus.

Our wedding would not have happened without Mel. We had a 50 person wedding in which Mel was not only the coordinator, but the person that planned, set up, tore down, announced, played music, literally everything. Mel did all of this without complaining even one time, not to mention, she did all of this herself. We did not realize how big the task was until the day of but she never once made us fear about it, even after seeing a uhaul full of decor. We were able to have a wedding that was not your typical wedding all because Mel helped us pull it off. Mel literally met with us for hours on the phone before hand and even made our decorations. When I tell you that you need to choose Mel, I truly mean that she will put her heart and soul into your day. She will treat the wedding like it’s her own with her time, care, and even getting upset with you when things don’t go your way and then continuing to fix them. Mel is simply the best. Her price was incredible. We cannot wait to continue using Mel for birthday parties, gender reveals, baby showers, etc. We truly created a friend!

We recently hired Mel to bartend an evening with close friends at our home, and she was absolutely fantastic. She brought such great energy, kept everything running smoothly, and crafted some truly delicious drinks. The standout of the night was definitely her watermelon spicy margarita—fresh, balanced, and with just the right kick. Everyone was raving about it! Mel made the evening feel effortless, and we’ll definitely be reaching out to her again for future gatherings.
