We used John and his team for our wedding on 5/19/18 and it was perfect! Myself and my coordinator were in touch with John in the months leading up to the event and he always got back to us promptly. He also was able to work with me on some special requests about the wine/beer/toast, which was great! On the day of the event, he had a problem getting ice due to power outages/storm damage, but I never knew, I only found out afterwards! The day of the wedding the bartenders were super attentive, my glass was never empty! They were also great about making sure empties were picked up and everything looked great. If you are looking for a professional bartending staff for your upcomoming event, I would highly reccomend you check out Bartenders Express!
Never showed at my niece’s wedding! Wedding planner called and was told they didn’t know what happened to the guy who was supposed to be there and they could not send a replacement. What the heck?
My husband and I worked with John for our wedding last month in October. At times it was difficult to connect with him via phone or email, which made things a bit tricky for us when planning because we were coming from quite a distance out of town. However, he was able to eventually answer all of our millions of questions we asked him and was very accommodating with what we envisioned for our wedding. When we asked him for some recommendations for our signature cocktail he was able to support us in finding the perfect cocktail for our special day. During the event John and the entire bar-tending team were all very personable and approachable. All of our guests had nothing but positive things to say about their drinks and the service they provided. The owners of our venue also commented on how wonderful they were to work with! At the end of the night Bartender Express even helped to clean up our tables and rented glassware, which was really going above and beyond. Overall, they were great to work with and really helped to make our wedding a fun day.
So happy we chose Bartenders Express! John was so great to work with - great communication beforehand and obviously very experienced. Excellent service and delicious strong drinks - can't ask for more! We would not hesitate to use them again!
Bartenders Express was a great choice for our wedding. We like craft brews and were able to get the exact current beers we wanted and didn't pay extra for the less widespread brands. They offered affordable packages at all levels of service and choice. Our bartenders were friendly and professional and everyone enjoyed their service.
I can't say enough great things about John and his people. He was so helpful and no nonsense during the planning process, I loved working with him. We brewed all of our own beer for the wedding and he helped us present everything perfectly. His staff was attentive, quick, and professional. A real stand out moment was that one of the bartenders kept coming to my groom and I and making sure we had drinks the whole night. It's easy to get caught up in the night and that gesture really meant a lot.
I could not be more pleased with the service we received for our wedding! Sean went above and beyond to make sure my husband and I always had a drink, he was professional with a great sense of humor and my guests had not a single issue. I highly recommend Bartenders Express!
