Otega, came to the rescue last minute. He came and just adapted the way we needed him to in such short notice, provided him everything with the bar and all things to mix, etc but he was acting as if it was his own set-up! Even had an ice bag backpack! We told him to wear all black for the event and he had no problem doing so. This was a formal event with over 60+ guests and he killed it! Was quick with serving drinks, and was very helpful in teardown as well! Can’t recommend him enough!
Details: 26 - 50 guests • Special occasion • Formal / elegant • Private residence • Liquor / mixed drinks • Wine • Non-alcoholic beverages • Bartender will need to bring the bar • Tip jars not allowed • Setup / cleanup • Coolers • Disposable cups • Ice

Got in touch with Otega just 3 days ago and although he was traveling, he responded and agreed to help. Candy came in for the job and she was amazing. Brought fun and cheer to the party. Would highly recommend.

Teggy was great! We told him what liquor we had and he did his thing. Made some great drinks and was a great kickoff to my best friend's bachelorette weekend. Would definitely recommend.
