Excellent vendor from start to finish! Communication was flawless and effortless with John. He and his crew kept things flowing and offered very professional bartending to our wedding! I highly recommend John and his company!!!
We had a wedding of 300+ guests, many of whom like to drink and have fun. Bourbon Street Bartending did such a great job keeping our lines quick, our guests satiated, and providing a wide variety of beer, wine and liquor to choose from. We heard many compliments from our guests on the friendliness and service of the bartenders. Thank you so much for providing such a professional service on the best day of our lives. Another important item of note - BSB was very professional when it came to contracting and reassuring us that our reception which was being held in the backyard of the bride would be protected from liability issues due to BSB's liability insurance. With a guest count of 300, this was a must have for us. We would highly recommend BSB for your wedding.
My husband and I were too busy to drink at our wedding, but our guests seemed to have enjoyed the bar a lot, so that’s good. We had an insanely difficult time getting BSB to respond to emails. We had questions, wanted to make selections, needed to clarify details and we’d go a long time without a response. It was concerning to say the least. We booked based on a recommendation given by our day-of coordinator, and she informed us the month of our wedding BSB was no longer on her list of preferred vendors due to issues with response time. It also made us feel weird that sometimes emails would come from the business account and sometimes a personal account. Either way, planning a wedding includes a lot of coordination, and we felt stressed a lot with this vendor due to poor communication. The crew who arrived on our wedding day also said they originally went to the wrong location for a different wedding, so I’m not sure if what they brought was even what we paid for. I didn’t get complaints from guests, so I’m sure the drink selection was fine, but as a couple - we wouldn’t book with them having gone through the communication. If that’s not a big deal to you, you could be fine.
We used Bourbon Street Bartending for our 2022 wedding and it was a BLAST! We had multiple compliments on the bartending staff, and truly enjoyed them being a part of our big day.
We did a full liquor package and added a custom cocktail with our last name for guests to order, in addition to any other beverage they would like.
BSB was on time, brought their own bar, and smoothly handled the transition from our cocktail hour location to the reception -which was a logistical item that originally concerned me but it was handled perfectly.
John was so easy to work with leading up to the wedding and we felt very comfortable trusting the bar services to him. Definitely a great investment!
John and the Bourbon Street bartenders were great for our wedding on August 1, 2020. John was always quick to respond and available to answer questions during planning, even when things were wild due to planning during covid. The bartenders were fun and interactive with our guests. Not to mention, you can’t beat their pricing and selection!
I cannot say enough positive things about Bourbon Street Bartending. Our wedding was wonderful with their help. Many of our guests commented on how friendly the staff was, and how hard they worked. Jon was very easy to work with and answered many of my questions promptly and kindly. The bar service was phenomenal. We would for sure recommend them to anyone looking for a bartender/bar service!!
These guys saved the day after there was a mix up with our wedding venue and we were left without a bar tending service only 2 weeks before our wedding! They replied to our call within 24 hrs and squeezed us in even though it was a holiday weekend only 2 weeks away. That pretty much says it all!
Bourbon Street Bartending did a wonderful job serving all our guests at the Withrow/Lundy wedding on Sunday, November 4th at the Rolling Meadows Ranch in Lebanon. We highly recommend using their services. True professionals and a first class operation. They really helped make the wedding a very special day.
The staff was friendly and did a great job of keeping our guests happy and well watered. I don’t think there was a drink they couldn’t make and they kept up with all our guests expectations.
Bourbon Street Bartending did a great job at our wedding!! They were on time and professional and made the cocktail hour and reception go so smoothly. They are an incredible value for the cost—I would highly recommend them!!
They did an AWESOME job at our wedding! I was so happy with their work and professionalism. They were able to make all of our signature drinks doable.
The bartenders were very polite and knew exactly what they were doing. They provided quick service and were very punctual. We provided our own liquor and they gladly served it.
I would highly recommend this vendor. The staff was friendly and efficient. We had many good comments on their service for my daughters' wedding. We thought very reasonable for the amount of offerings they supplied. I would highly recommend.
Bourbon Street Bartenders did a great job on my wedding. The bartenders were friendly and courteous. They were there on time and had a great set-up. They served the guests quickly and professionally.
Pre-Wedding:: We never actually met Bourbon Street Bartending (BSB) until our wedding day but being that they were very prompt and professional on email inquiries, we weren’t too worried about it.
Wedding:: Their setup was very professional and their drink options was extensive. They brought everything from the bar, alcohol (beer, wine, liquor), mixers, cups…everything. The price they provided everything was lower/same as other vendors and they would have only provided a portion of what BSB provided. We received positive feedback from our guests on the options available.
We wouldn’t hesitate to use BSB again, even if it was for a non-wedding event.
Unbelievable service!! We went all out for our wedding requesting full service and a signature drink. John coordinated exceptionally well and balanced great service with a guest-list who never left the bar unattended. Our guests were HIGHLY satisfied and we could not have been more thankful for such wonderful coordination! I had even spilled cranberry sangria on the front of my dress and John quickly came to the rescue with no stain in sight! If you want great quality, you're guaranteed to get it! Thanks John!
Great bartenders. Very professional. I would highly recommend Bourbon Street Bartending to anyone. Thank you for helping make our wedding reception great!!
You could not hire a better bartending service for your wedding than Bourbon Street Bartending. They are professional, easy to work with, and you cannot beat their prices.
Had my wedding last night and bourbon street Bartending did an amazing job with everything! They were early to set up, no issues what so ever!!! The booking and payment process was easy and stress free also! Their set up looked great! We loved our bartenders and definitely recommend them for any event!
There was not a line much of the evening, we had 2 bartenders, so that was good. Keep in mind, if your guests arrive early and the bar starts serving, they will close the bar once your contract agreement of hours served has occurred.
John did a great job with the event! We did the premium bar for 4 hours with 2 bartenders. The gentlemen tending bar were very professional, responsive, and provided just what we needed for our special day. Thanks to BSB, John, and his staff for doing a great job!
John was very easy to work with customizing our package and was very responsive. He was there on time, brought a great bar and had plenty of beer. He and the other bartender were friendly and professional, all at a fair price. Very happy I chose Bourbon Street!
Bourbon Street was super easy to deal with and book for my big day. And when they arrived, I was blown away! They moved so fast and - all of a sudden - there was this gorgeous, long, shiny wood bar in front of me...and fully stocked. It looked like a permanent fixture. I was very impressed. On top of that, the bartenders were so courteous and professional...and fun! My guests took full advantage of the open bar and are still telling me how great the drinks were and how great the service was!
We had a wonderful time working with Bourbon Street Bartending. They helped get and keep the party going. Bourbon Street Bartending was very professional and very reasonably priced. I know that all of my guests had a fun night!
John, the owner, was very easy to work with. He responded to all my e-mails and changes that I made along the way. We ended up with his premium bar package. All top shelf liquor, bottled beer, bottled water, and Coke products were included. They also brought 2 nice bars that they served from and they were included in the cost. The next day after the reception I found out that the vodka had run out at some point during the night but that they went out and got more. I appreciated this because sometimes vendors will tell you they are out and there’s nothing that can be done.
John Faler is the owner of Bourbon Street Bartending and was our bartender for the reception. We are so glad we found him. There aren’t a lot of mobile bars in the area that provide the service as well as the alcohol. It was so fantastic to pay a set per person price and not have to worry about a thing. They are fully insured and extremely professional. John was consistently responsive to my questions and special requests. Every email I sent him was responded to within 24 hours – unlike several other vendors who didn’t respond at all. He exceeded all my expectations. The prices can’t be beat - ONLY $6.99 per person for beer and wine (in addition to the reasonable $30/hour service fee). He brings a lighted bar to the event and handles all the setup and cleanup. Everyone I talked to was very pleased with the bar service.
John, the owner, was easily available for questions and responded quickly to my calls. He works with you to find the best package for your budget. I compared a lot of different bartending companies and this one offered the most for the least amount of money. For our wedding we got the full premium bar service which included PLENTY of choices of liquor, mixers, garnishes, beer, and wine. All the drinks tasted wonderful and all of the guests enjoyed the variety in drinks the bar had to offer. Also the bar was beautiful and had lighting on it. They showed up on time and set up before the reception started and had enough drinks for the entire time contracted. They did run out of coke at one point and had to run out and get more (causing the line to back up some). The lines were kind of long during the beginning due to everyone going to the bar all at once to get a drink for dinner. I had a lot of non-drinkers at my wedding that just wanted water or soda… so if you use them I would recommend to the bartenders to set out pre filled cups of soda/water for people to grab (just an idea so they don’t have to wait in line). Also the contract said they would provide bottled water and they were filling up pitchers of tap water in the beginning but later he brought out the bottled water. Lastly, some of my guests along with my father in law told me that one of the bartenders at my reception was telling them that I did not give him the correct head count (which was why he appeared unhappy and upset). Apparently when he arrived he was confused by how many chairs were set up ( the owner of the reception venue would not let me move her tables/chairs- we had 250 set up even though my guest count was approx. 200). Also he found out that we gave the caterer a higher head count. We did this because we wanted to make sure we had enough food in case people who did not RSVP showed up and so people could have seconds. I knew if more people showed up than the headcount I gave the bartender (I gave a headcount of 207 and 197 showed up) then it’s stated in our contract that he can charge me for the extra people after the wedding, which I was fine with. The bartender could have acted more professional/happy at the reception considering he had the right to charge me for any additional guests I did not pay for after the event. Anyways, I understand it was a big misunderstanding, we are human and not perfect. The misunderstanding was cleared up the next day and he apologized for it.
They were amazing! All my friends could not stop talking about how excellent the service was and how their was so much to choose from.
