Tom and the team at Brand Bars were incredible. From the very beginning, they were flexible, collaborative, and their communication was superb. On top of being easy to work with,...
their prices were excellent. On the day of our ceremony and reception, the staff made sure every guest was taken care of quickly, especially with the long build up as cocktail hour began. They also went well out of their way to make sure my wife and I were prioritized throughout the event. We couldn't be more pleased with our decision to use Brand Bars and would highly recommend their services to those in need of a bar vendor.

Our special day wouldn’t have been possible without this team. The bar was fully stocked, ready to go, and an absolute pleasure to work with. We've had so many guests reach out to tell us how delicious the house margaritas were—and how the bar stayed full and flowing all night long. They truly kept the party going and handled everything with top-tier professionalism.

e event, Brand Bar was a pleasure to work with.
We had the pleasure of working with Tom and his team for our wedding, and it was an absolute joy. Their experience and professionalism were evident from start to finish. Tom was consistently responsive throughout the planning process; promptly addressing any questions or concerns we had about the services and bar packages provided. One standout feature was Tom's willingness to work with us on signature cocktails, which turned out to be a huge hit. Additionally, he allowed us to provide our own non-alcoholic mixers, a rarity in the Charleston market, showing that it's not just about business for them—they genuinely strive to tailor the bar experience to each couple's preferences. Brand Bar goes above and beyond for their clients, demonstrating a genuine commitment to ensuring satisfaction. Considering Charleston's status as a major wedding destination, his company is fair with pricing, without compromising on quality in the slightest.
On the day of the wedding, his team was exceptionally professional and efficient, and our guests thoroughly enjoyed the drinks they served. The bartenders were incredibly kind and worked hard to ensure everyone was happy. We would highly recommend them to anyone and everyone!

We found that their cost (per person for each bar package) was much better than other bar service vendors in the area (my personal opinion) and allowed us more cost savings. We had no issues with timeliness of setup, support or breakdown for our event. Our bartender staff (Amanda and Katelin) were courteous, kind and extremely professional and personable with their guest interactions and service provided. I would definitely hire Bar Brands again for any future event.

y #1 of our wedding planning we knew we wanted to offer beers from the Charleston area (beer is something my husband and I have bonded over). Brand Bar's packages offered exactly what we wanted + gave us the option to add things.
Closer to the date, the team let us know that a specific beer of ours was going to be pretty limited and offered the PERFECT solution of subbing in a couple of beers from the same brewery.
During our reception the staff made sure we always had water and our favourite drink handy :)
The wedding was only 5 days ago and several guests have already reached out complimenting both the staff and the selection!!

We attended a wedding a few years ago that hired Tom to provide bartending services and we immediately knew we wanted to go with Tom when it was time to find a bar for our wedding....
Throughout the whole process he was incredibly helpful and was flexible to meet our needs. He provided advice on drinks, glassware and communicated well with our wedding planner to ensure everything went well. The communication was impressive as Tom always got back to us so quickly and was always happy to answer any questions we had. On our wedding day the bar ran seamlessly and the bartenders worked quickly so there was never a long line to get drinks. They were also very flexible with us throughout the day with moving bars from cocktail hour to the reception area. The signature cocktail was a hit and everyone was raving about the drinks they had. Thank you Tom for making everything so easy for us and for an amazing job!
