Hi! My name is Bailey, and I have been in the restaurant industry for over 12 years! I was tired of working for "the man", so I became the (Wo)man! I'm a little goofy, but also serious when need to be! I love Love and believe everyone deserves it! When I'm not behind the bar, I like to stay active and go on walks, ride my electric bike to a park, to the gym, or to yoga! I also enjoy traveling, and my favorite type of vacation is Cruise Ships! I have a golden retriever named Leo, and he also helps me stay active! My morning routine doesn't start until I have a cup of coffee in my favorite mug!

We hired Classic Cocktails to bartend our wedding and from the moment I first engaged with Bailey it was a joy to work with her! She made the planning process fun and easy, spendi...
ng time with me going over typical consumption rates and detailed shopping lists. She helped me find affordable places to purchase alcohol and mixers (if you choose that package) and had wonderful suggestions to make the process easy. She prepares menus for your guests to align with your theme and it really set the bar off. We even had them save a special bottle for the bride and groom and they were so quick to prepare our drinks and keep our glass full. Our guests had a great time with delicious drinks from a well organized bar, keeping them out having fun instead of standing in a long line. We would absolutely hire Classic Cocktails again in a heartbeat.

I was the maid of honor at my friend's wedding and Bailey was an absolute star bartender! From start to finish, she was professional, personable, and incredibly skilled behind the ...
bar. She kept the drinks flowing smoothly all night, handled guests with ease, and made everyone feel welcome with her warm and friendly attitude. She quick and efficient and she also had a great knowledge of cocktails and made some amazing drinks! You could tell she truly enjoys what she does, and it showed in the quality of her service. She provided my friend with a shopping list of all the beer, wine, liquors, mixers, and garnish and even where to purchase them to get the best deals! My friend had 2 signature cocktails and they were out and ready at the bar when the ceremony was over so guest could grab them right away! If you’re looking for a top-notch bartender for any event, I highly recommend Bailey—she’s the best! I'll be using her for my own wedding!
