The team at Bottoms Up is ELITE! I reached out to Melinda with just a month to go before our wedding, and she immediately put us at ease. She was responsive, detail-oriented, and professional from the very first call. She helped us plan a bar menu tailored to our guests, shared a thoughtful buy-list that saved us time and money, and guided us through cocktail choices that fit the vibe of our wedding perfectly.On the wedding day, her team was punctual, organized, and an absolute well-oiled machine. They set up a full bar that looked fantastic, and for 7 straight hours they served 200 guests with ease beer, wine, a full bar, and two signature cocktails. Guests raved about the drinks, and the bartenders were warm, professional, and efficient the entire time.Bottoms Up made a huge wedding stress disappear for us. Melinda and her team knocked it out of the park, and I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone planning a wedding or event. Thank you for your professionalism, excellent customer service, and delicious cocktails you guys are awesome!

Melinda is an absolutely wonderful bartender! She brings such a great vibe to any event, professional, fun, and incredibly easy to work with. Her cocktails are always a hit, and she goes above and beyond to make sure everyone is taken care of.
What really sets her apart is her personal touch. She took the time to understand our preferences ahead of the event and customized the menu perfectly. She is also super organized, punctual, and left the space spotless at the end, which we really appreciated.
Whether you are planning a birthday, wedding, corporate event, or backyard bash, do yourself a favor and book Melinda and Bottoms Up. She is not just a bartender, she is the kind of person who makes your event unforgettable.

Bottoms Up was a fantastic addition to our staff retreat! Melinda created customized mocktails that were not only delicious but perfect for our group. The hands-on experience of learning how to craft the drinks made it extra fun and engaging! I highly recommend for any event looking to add a unique, interactive twist!
