All I can say is Ms. Carr is absolutely amazing. We hired a bartender whom we assumed was licensed and insured. We later found out neither of which were true. Five days before our...
wedding we were left scrambling to find someone with short notice. Jaee treated us so nice from start to finish. She explained her policies as well as NC liquor laws and quoted us in a matter of minutes.
When she and her assistance arrived they were so fun and full of life. They treated every guest like family. They also danced and sang along with us. I am so glad they were able to squeeze us in. We couldn't have asked for a better bartender.

nd a little twist on the Liquid Marijuana, was my absolute fav!! I was a little hesitant, due to uncertainty of distance, but once I reached out to her, she informed me that her goal was to go the "extra mile", and she did just that. Prompt, professional, funny, and the list goes on. The guests were so complimentary about the customer service received at the bar, when placing their order. My husband and I have already booked with Aquired Taste Bartending, for our next event in Jan. 2022. Thanks again, for helping make memories of a life time. This was definitely one to remember!!
I originally did not see the need for a bartender at my birthday party. I figured I would just have someone stand behind the bar and monitor our alcohol. As we got closer to that d...
ay I realized that was more stress than it needed to be. I reached out to Acquired Tastes and Jaee immediately addressed all my questions and concerns, & helped me curate a drink menu in less than 2 hours. Literally a godsend! She really brought her a-game to my party. The drinks were perfectly balanced and looked gorgeous . She even gave me a inventory list of all the left over liquors/beers at the end of the night. I was pleasantly surprised at how well she and her team treated me and my guests and her attention to detail. I will be using her in the future. Thank you Jaee!
Jaee is amazing!!!! I have booked Acquired Taste on several occasions and my expectations are exceeded every time. She breaks down everything so it is easily to understand. She hel...
