Introduction: With over 20 years in the hospitality industry we combine a passion for creating quality cocktails, helping you plan your wedding, providing knowledgeable waitstaff and outstanding customer service. As a mixologist most recently I was the mastermind behind a beautiful cocktail menu made from scratch ingredients. I love to provide a customized experience. Every event I’ve done is unique in its own way. That’s why you should have cocktails inspired by “you” utilizing the local fresh ingredients the PNW has to offer. We will work together to customize cocktail names to bring the whole event together to wow your friends and family. My wife Aubrey has been coordinating wedding’s for over 10 years. As a bride planning your wedding we want you to be a guest at your own wedding. We handle all the details from the day you decide to work with us until the last minute the day of your wedding. We are known as Mr. & Mrs. accountable. We show up early and stay late to everything we do. We understand some of the old school philosophies my grandfather taught me like work ethic, following through with what you say you’re going to do and just simply showing up on time. Let’s work together and elevate your next event to the next level. Additional products and services we offer: -Glassware rental pickup -Disposable glassware delivered to your event -Ice delivered to your event -Crystal clear craft cocktail ice -Event staff to help with setup, service & cleanup Credentials: We carry general & liquor liability insurance.

The bartender called me and helped me brainstorm how to best serve our guests at the event. Service was better than I could have imagined and helped the event run smoothly.

I worked with Brian and Ian (bartender) for my husband’s 40th birthday event. Brian was a great communicator in preparing for the event, and was so easy to work with during preparation, and Ian was an incredible, personable, and creative bartender who we would love to work with again! Overall, an amazing experience. Would 100% recommend.

Details: 101 - 125 guests • Birthday party • Upbeat / lively • Public venue • Beer • Wine • Liquor / mixed drinks • Non-alcoholic beverages • Bartender will need to bring the bar • Tip jars allowed • Setup / cleanup • Disposable cups

Hello Jessica Thank you so much for taking the time to write us a review. I totally enjoyed planning this party with you and Kevin said you and all your guests were absolutely awesome. He made comments about the birthday roast. I heard it was an epic one. We look forward to serving you in the future. Cheers, Brian

We chose Daring to Dream Events to help us with bartending and wedding coordination for our wedding this summer. They exceeded our expectations in every way and I cannot recommend Brian (and Aubrey his wife who does wedding coordination with Daring to Dream Events) enough. Though you don’t necessarily need to hire both of them (you could just do bartending or wedding coordination), I’d highly recommend getting them both if you’re having a wedding. They work great as a team and are truly passionate about what they do. We felt their care and passion throughout our time working with them. For example, leading up to our wedding, Brian worked a ton with us to design a thoughtful set of “His” and “Hers” cocktails. On the day of, they were a complete hit with our guests, setting the perfect tone for the evening. Aubrey also connected with us multiple times to make sure we were ready for our big day. Each time we asked her a question, her answers were on point which helped us feel comfortable and confident in our plans. On the day of she hustled and got all of our details right. We were doing a particularly DIY wedding - so the fact that she was able to land all of the different requirements we had is no small feat. We had such a magical day and cannot recommend them enough. Whether you need incredible bartending or wedding coordination…you can’t go wrong with them.

Details: 101 - 125 guests • Wedding reception • Low key / casual • Public venue • Non-alcoholic beverages • Wine • Liquor / mixed drinks • Beer • Bartender will need to bring the bar • Tip jars allowed • Setup / cleanup • Ice • Disposable cups • Glassware • Coolers

Hello Sterling We had so much fun with you both planning and serving you at your wedding. The opportunity to come out early and stay the night prior to your wedding was icing on the cake. Thank you for accommodating our family. We wish you the best in marriage. Cheers, Brian

The Daring to Dream team is a DREAM TEAM!! I loved working with Brian, Aubrey, and their team for my wedding. I worked with Brian leading up to the wedding and he was incredible. I appreciated that he got me on the phone quickly to talk through details and right away he made me feel like he would have my back all through the process, which he did. We also hired 2 wait staff in addition to Brian as the bartender and they made everything so much better. Aubrey made me feel so taken care of and she made every detail I envisioned into a reality. I am so grateful to this team. They were fun, professional, attentive, thoughtful, and really made sure every detail was executed seamlessly. I HIGHLY recommend Daring to Dream Events to anyone hosting a wedding!

Details: 76 - 100 guests • Wedding reception • Low key / casual • Public venue • Beer • Wine • Liquor / mixed drinks • Non-alcoholic beverages • Bartender will need to bring the bar • Tip jars not allowed • Setup / cleanup • Disposable cups • Coolers • Ice • Glassware
