Drink Slingers was awesome and helped make our wedding such a fun and special day! The drinks were great and we got so many compliments on how quick/easy it was for people to get their beverage which as you know is not always the case at weddings! They were so great to work with and accommodating in the months leading up to the wedding which I really appreciated. Highly recommend!
I think Drink Slingers may have been my best wedding vendor, and I loved all my vendors! Nannette helped me with the planning process and she was exceptionally organized, responsive, proactive, and detailed. Overall, Drink Slingers’ operation felt very streamlined.
On our wedding day, I didn’t have many opportunities to interact with the bartenders (Jennifer and Austin) but they got rave reviews from our guests who said they were so nice and on top of everything. I did, however, drink their margaritas all night and they were delicious and refreshing for a hot summer wedding! The marg was my specialty drink of choice and my husband chose the Texas old fashioned which was also pretty solid.
Our wedding was an informal garden party theme but despite being informal, we wanted to provide high-quality food and drink to our guests. Drink Slingers was an essential part of that and I don’t think our wedding would have been as great without them!
Booking Drink Slingers was one of the smartest things we did for our wedding. The booking process was smooth, responses were quick, and the team was so friendly!! We selected three signature drinks and our guests loved each one. I wish we could have another wedding just so we could book them again. Highly recommend!
They were great!! Very professional and communicative.
Drink Slingers was excellent! We were probably pretty tough to work with, since Nannette had to deal with me, my wife and my mom at the same time but she made it all happen. We used them for both the rehearsal dinner/welcome party and cocktail hour + reception for our wedding. The welcome party menu was pretty simple as it was just beer, wine and mint juleps, but you've got to know how to properly make a mint julep and they definitely succeeded! More challenging, our reception and cocktail hour were a totally open bar. My wife and I stocked it so that somebody could order whatever drink they wanted, whether it was a maragita, manhattan, whiskey sour, or just a simple gin and tonic. With so many options and such little direction, the service was absolutely fantastic. All the guests were happy and everyone got what they wanted. I can definitely say that without Nannette and Drink Slingers, the wedding would not have been perfect.
I hired Drink Slingers for my own wedding after seeing their level of service at events I had attended and I could not have been happier. Devon, their event manager, is one of the most responsive vendor I have ever worked with (and I am an event planner so I work with a lot)! I had worked with Sykes and Josh at a wedding a few weeks before mine and they were amazing (even helping me troubleshoot some non-bar beverage issues) so requested them for my wedding and they were wonderful! We had selected two signature cocktails and I have had so many friends and family members compliment the drinks months later. Moving forward I am recommending them to all my clients!
We are thrilled with the service provided by the Drink Slingers team! We and our guests had a wonderful night of great cocktails, and even better company! We had a very specific vision for our NYE wedding and the team worked with us to make sure everything came to life perfectly. We would 100% recommend Drink Slingers for anyone’s event!
Sadie was lovely to work with in preparing for our event and gave me some really great ideas on how to reduce waste and be more eco friendly with our wedding. Chad was absolutely wonderful at our wedding! He was so easy to work with, super friendly with the guests and instilled confidence on a naturally stressful day. He communicated up front some clarifying questions for the day and had some thoughtful touches like putting water out on a table for guests to grab on their way out. Both were true professionals and I would hire Drink Slingers again without question for any future events!
Lizzy and Sykes were absolutely amazing. All the guests have said nothing but great things and I would recommend them for any future event.
Drink Slingers was fantastic! They had a great timely response and you can tell that they take care of every client!
Drink Slingers were FANTASTIC!! They bartended our wedding, which was custom curated and required a large staff with multiple bars and they absolutely nailed it. Not to mention they are all incredibly kind. We were so fortunate to have them as part of our special day, I’ll be dreaming about their margaritas for a lifetime.
Drink Slingers did an excellent job at our wedding! they were responsive to inquiries, helpful in choosing a menu and very professional and efficient on the day of. Highly recommended all around!
I never write public reviews, Drink Slingers and especially our bartender Stacy were amazing! Everyone at the party commented how awesome she was. Our event was about 60 people. By the end of the night, she knew all of us and our drink preferences. She treated everyone like they were the most important guest at the event.
Drink Slingers really are the best! When we had to postpone back in 2020 due to the pandemic, they worked with us to easily reschedule and get things back on track. They made the most delicious drinks and the staff was absolutely amazing. We couldn't recommend them more!
Couldn't have asked for a better bartender. Jen was very polite, arrived on time, and did a great job overall. Many of our wedding guests commented on how great she was. Setup and takedown was a breeze, she did it all.
Chad and Jen were very friendly, kept the drinks flowing all night, and even participated in random photoshoots and tiktoks. Great service, great personalities.
Such a professional and helpful bartending service! Absolutely loved working with Drink Slingers for our wedding in early December 2021. The team did an incredible job and utilized the vintage glassware we provided for the event. Smooth set up and execution and great personalities to spare. 10/10 recommend.
Drinkslingers was absolutely amazing at our wedding - from planning to pouring! It was a pleasure to work with Sadie to get everything planned, selected and purchased . They even gave us an alcohol purchase list so we could just buy everything at Costco which was awesome.
On the day of, our bartenders were delightful, professional and so great. We didn't have to worry about a thing, and knew that everything was going to be A+ in their professional hands. Our guests were well taken care of and everyone had a wonderful time.
If you're looking for your bartender, look no further and hire Drinkslingers!
They went so beyond our expectations! The drinks were amazing and they were so kind to bottle up the extra cocktails for us to enjoy later. The two bartenders we had meshed so well with our guests and everyone had exactly what they wanted.
Drink Slingers was excellent at our wedding! The cocktails were amazing and the service was outstanding. The shopping list and consulting from the team beforehand was also incredibly helpful. Thanks so much!
The bartenders were prompt and professional! They had a fun vibe and were great to work with. Thank you so much for everything!
We hired Drink Slingers for our wedding and they did not disappoint!! The bartenders were SO friendly and made excellent drinks. I would recommend this company to anyone looking for a professional, hassle-free bartending service. Loved them!
Everything about drink slingers was professional and well organized . The responses to questions were always quick and comprehensive. The bar staff were fantastic! So friendly and efficient!
The wine popsicles were a hit! I had my wedding last Saturday and my big splurge was Drink Slingers, specifically the Kickstand Mobile Mule and wine popsicles. My reception was inside/outside, so we had a bar inside as well as the mule trailer and it worked well.
Nanette was great to work with and I was especially happy with the checklist of what was needed on my end (specifically in terms of how much beer and wine to buy). The alcohol vendor was very pushy and tried to convince me that I needed to buy 2,500 servings, but when I checked with Nanette, she said about 800 would be enough. I ended up buying a little over 900 servings and ended up with ~100 servings extra. Her accurate estimating saved me thousands of dollars!
Drink Slingers did an awesome job at our wedding last Saturday night. Devon was amazing, friendly and personable to our guests all night. She offered drink recommendations and worked very efficiently. I would highly recommend them and Devon.
Sadie was so lovely throughout the process of planning our wedding. We had to postpone twice due to COVID and she made it so easy to change our date and made sure to check up on us. I hate planning and the shopping list was so helpful to make sure we got everything we needed. All around A+ people, A+ service. Thank you!
My husband & I were so happy we decided to hire Drink Slingers as our Rehearsal Dinner bartending vendor. Holy smokes were they amazing! The craft cocktails were delicious, especially the grapefruit ginger collins they specialty made for us, were SO delicious! Shelly was fun, professional, & so creative behind the bar! So grateful for Drink Slingers and would suggest them to anyone needing/wanting a bartender for your event! If you've read this far, you've already made up your mind! DO IT!
As a venue manager, I've worked with Drink Slingers many times. They aren't your average bartending company - they are actually passionate about doing what they do! They always come up with such fun drinks! We hired them for an event recently to do a mimosa bar. They had so much fun with it, they did a "Pomegranate Mimosa" with bubbles, pomegranate, thyme, & sugar on the rim, and a "Winter Sparkler" with rose, blood orange juice, thyme, & bubbles. SO amazing and it was the perfect touch for brunch.
Great experience all the way around! Annie was our bartender for the evening and we can't say enough what an awesome job she did. Would certainly recommend Drink Slingers to anyone looking for a bartending service.
Drink Slingers were the perfect bartending service for our wedding! The bartenders were friendly, helpful, and efficient. The Mobile Mule was the perfect accent to our event and our guests are still raving about it! We highly recommend Drink Slingers for your next event.
Y’all did a great job! Everyone loved their drinks. We really appreciate that the bartenders and servers came and worked the event even with everything going on. Thank y’all so much!
We loved working with Drink Slingers for our wedding. We changed our minds a lot throughout the planning process, but Mo was always quick with responses, advice and patience. We had over 500 people at our wedding, with two bars set up and multiple bartenders at each. I never saw a line at either bar during the night. Great company that knows what they are doing. They come in, do their thing and clean up in a timely manner leaving the space like they were never there. Prices are fair and you absolutely get the best service for your money.
Drink Slingers was just who we were looking for to serve at our wedding! Working with Sadie ahead of our event was seamless and we even opted to get the shopping list, which was a huge help. We loved the vibe that Chad, one of our bartenders, provided! He was so friendly and accommodating to all of our guests and made some awesome drinks! We highly recommend Drink Slingers for any event, as they are a ton of fun!
Drink Slingers! Where do I start?! From the very beginning I have been so impressed with the communication, the service, etc. You guys did a fabulous job! Everyone couldn’t stop talking about the margaritas and how friendly Chad and Chelsea were! The service was outstanding! Thank you so much for being a part of our wedding day! I would highly recommend Drink Slingers for any event! Thank you again!!!!
All of the vendors we used for our wedding were excellent, but Drink Slingers knocked it out of the park with their service, attention & positive attitude from the minute I submitted an inquire until the clean-up was complete.
Long story short- wedding drama. We were suddenly left looking for a bartending service a few months before our big day, I had no idea what we needed, the correct questions to ask or where to even begin. I got on the phone with Mo- she was patient, kind, helpful & assured me that we would definitely have alcohol at our wedding.
Our family & friends have a passion for a good time, especially when the good times come with good drinks. To be honest, my main concern was that we would run out of alcohol. We were given an incredible shopping list to help guide us in the right direction of variety & quantity- and we did not run out of alcohol! (In fact, we were even able to return some unopened products to Total Wine.)
Every bartender at our wedding was charming, funny & incredibly good looking. They were full of smiles, they interacted with our guests, we all had an amazing time & my glass was never empty.
Drink Slingers is one of those authentically good & honest companies. I highly recommend them & will definitely be using them again for future events.
We loved working with Drink Slingers for our wedding. We had a long engagement and changed our minds quite often throughout the planning process, but Nannette was always there with quick responses to help address our concerns. On the day of the wedding, our bartender, Justin, made all the guests feel special and was extremely efficient. We can't say enough great things about Drink Slingers! Prices are fair and you absolutely get the best service for your money.
Drink Slingers was a great company to work with! Very communicative and professional during every step of the planning process. Justin did an amazing job bartending at our wedding!! Couldn’t be happier with how it went!!!
Drink Slingers helped fuel the fun on our wedding day! The team of bartenders were great! Nannette and her team were so easy to work with!
We had an incredible experience with Mo and Drink Slingers over the weekend. It was such a joy working with Mo. She was on top of everything and able to assist whenever I had a question. I fully recommend and thank you again for making sure our event was a success!
We loved working with Drink Slingers! They were the bartenders for a beautiful wedding at La Estancia Bella. Their set up is gorgeous and, they take time to prepare great cocktails. Very professional and would recommend!
Drink Slingers was great! We booked them at the recommendation of our coordinator fairly last minute (a month before our wedding) because the bartenders we had booked with our caterer were no longer available. It was stressful losing our original bartenders so close to the wedding, but working with Drink Slingers made things completely manageable and better than we imagined! I spoke with Sadie throughout the process and she was super communicative, thorough, and definitely eased my anxiety about the situation! She responded quickly to my emails and paid close attention to detail. She was very friendly and helpful of any questions I had and was accommodating in whatever way she could be. It was great having professionals just show up to our wedding with all the tools and supplies needed (we only had to bring alcohol and the water/tea with 2 drink dispensers, lemon, and sugar) so the whole process was made VERY easy on our part! I didn’t personally really talk to the bartenders because guests kept bringing me drinks, but my husband did briefly and said they were very nice. We highly recommend Drink Slingers! :D

Having Drink Slingers serve drinks at our wedding was a great choice! The bartender (Aryn) was beyond accommodating to our requests and served up very tasty drinks. He also had a fun outfit that brought an exciting flair to the bar while still remaining “in theme” for our wedding. The staff is easy to work with and knows their stuff when it comes to serving weddings. All their drinking estimates were almost surreal in how spot-on they were.
We worked with Sadie before the wedding, and she helped us select 2 signature cocktails that were huge hits with the guests. We also worked together to create a perfect custom menu tailored specifically to our event and what our guests would enjoy.
We would absolute recommend hiring Drink Slingers for your next event! They helped make our special day that much more special.
Nannette was very quick to respond to emails and was always kind and friendly when answering all of my questions. Sykes showed up to our wedding venue and set up a really great bar display and everyone was happy with the drinks she served all night. Thank you for a great experience!
Sadie was great and very helpful when it came to getting our his and her cocktails down. We had a whiskey and coke for him, and a blood orange cosmopolitan for me (haven't tried it? you must!). We were worried we weren't going to be able to find in blood orange juice before November, but we lucked out in the end (thanks Amazon!). And Melissa and Sarah, the bartenders were amazing! They were really on top of everything and so friendly! I wish we could have talked with them more, it was so busy!
One thing I'd like to note, though, is the shopping list. Drink Slingers is great with helping provide a shopping list, but the counts may be a bit off. We bought half of what was on the list and still had left overs. When you go to buy your alcohol, take the list to the liquor store and know what you want to serve. The staff will help you get a better approximation of how much alcohol you need. We went to Spec's, and they have people coming in all the time for events like these. :)
Nannette is the best! She helped us make our wedding bar so easy to plan and buy for, and we ended up spending about half of what we would have if we'd gone with some other vendors. Our bartenders Rose and Brian drew rave reviews from our guests. I would absolutely hire Drinkslingers again and recommend them to anyone looking for professional and affordable service and creative drinks!
The Drink Slingers team has consistently brought their A-game to events I have attended and worked! Not only is their staff friendly to guests and vendors, but they create wonderful drinks that will keep the party going! I highly recommend them as a bar tending service to any bride looking to book, and as a planner I find very few companies I enjoy working with throughout the planning process. They are timely with responses and create a bar set up that is to die for!
Drink Slingers was an amazing business from start to finish. Their website was easy to navigate and select your optimal package. Got an immediate response from the owner wanting to make sure that they had every detail correct. Nannette was very friendly,helpful, and honest. They did not try to sell many anything I didn’t need or push me one way or another. Just listened and went with everything we wanted. The bartender we received (Mo) was punctual and professional. Most of our guests had nothing but great comments on her service. Would highly recommend for any body with any event in the future!!
Our venue, TerrAdorna, had a list of about 3 bartending companies that we could choose from, and Drinkslingers was on the list. I met one of the owners, Nannette, at a bridal event, and thought they’d be a good company to work with. They were responsive and gave good suggestions as we were planning out the menu, and gave us a general idea about how much of each different beverage we should buy. Sadly, on the day of the wedding, I didn’t get to have any interactions with the bartenders or the drinks, as I just didn’t get the opportunity to make my way over to that area in the reception, but my friends and family say the bartenders were very fun and friendly, and the drinks were well mixed!
I can not say enough wonderful things about Drink Slingers! They provided our bar tending service for our Austin wedding, and were such a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process, from initial panning to the actual night of our wedding.
Sadie was so professional and considerate throughout the planning process. Trying to plan a long-distance wedding (we live in Nashville, but were getting married in Austin) can be particularly difficult, but Sadie made it so easy! She communicated with us via email and phone throughout the entire process, and even went out of her way to try to set up some in person meetings on the very few planning trips we made to Austin. When we told her we wanted to craft a signature drink, she was authentically enthusiastic to help us do so. We told her what we wanted to name the drink (Black & Ginger) and what kind of flavor profile we wanted, and she sent us FOUR different cocktail options for us to mix up at home and taste test. All four were delicious and it was so difficult to just pick one! She sent us a detailed shopping list, which we were able to send directly to the liquor store and made purchasing alcohol and supplies a breeze.
Josh and Rose, our bartenders for the evening, were awesome! They were so professional, but also so fun! Our bar was located right next to the DJ and dancing, and they were jamming with us the whole time, which definitely helped set the tone for the night! When we ran out of an ingredient for our signature drink (it was so delicious, everyone kept drinking them all night!), they were able to think on their feet and add a replacement so that they could keep 'em coming!
I would highly recommend working with Drink Slingers for any event!
We used Drink Slingers for our wedding back in June. They were amazing, super affordable + Nannette was super attentive with every detail + the staff was friendly! I would recommend them to anyone!
Drink slingers was the absolute best choice for our wedding; from the initial consultation, recommendations for shopping and finally to the fabulous service at our wedding. The bartender, Rose, was amazing, we could not have asked for a better fit for our wedding day. Our guests have continued to tell us how impressed they were with her! Thank you for being a part of our amazing day, and we look forward to seeing you at future events!
Drink Slingers provided amazing service for our wedding! They met our requests for a drink menu, set up a personalized shopping list, and tailored every detail we requested. Our bartenders, Justin and Rose, kept our guests happy and the drinks flowing!
Absolutely terrific! Everyone loved Nicole!! She was awesome and friendly!
Sadie is the absolute best when it comes to planning a drink menu for a reception. My now-husband and I were married on March 25th, 2018, and while we never met Sadie in person, she was incredibly helpful in our planning process. We handled a majority of the plans for our wedding on our own, and had never held an event for 100+ people before. When we decided that we wanted to serve beer and wine only at our reception, we had absolutely no idea how to calculate how much we would need to purchase. Sadie was remarkably helpful and provided us with a list of what we should shop for - and as a result, the money we had budgeted toward our drinks turned out to be significantly higher than what we actually needed, and without Sadie's help we would have spent money we didn't need to.
Our bartenders were Justin and Rose, and their service was top notch throughout the night. They were personable, friendly, and quick! We also received so many compliments from our guests about their service. We would recommend Drink Slingers time and time again.
We used Drink Slingers for the bar service at my son’s wedding last weekend. Nanette was a pleasure to work with on the front end with the planning. She was very flexible and accommodating. The staff at the event, led by Maureen, did a wonderful job. They were professional, efficient and friendly, providing outstanding service for the guests. Many guests commented on what a great job they did.
Drink Slingers was so easy to work with during the planning and execution of our rehearsal dinner. We ended up adding on more services closer to the event date, and they were super flexible updating the contract, etc. We hired one bartender to serve beer and margaritas at our rehearsal dinner and everyone raved about how great the bartender was. We will always recommend Drink Slingers to friends and plan to use them again for more functions. Thank you!
YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!! Thank you for providing such fun flair and easy going service. Our guests enjoyed themselves even more thanks to you all ;)
Drink Slingers is the best! Brian was incredible. All our guest kept saying what a joy he was. All we had to do was buy the alcohol and they did the rest. It was so affordable and my husband James and I loved the service. We got married on 10.01.2017 at The Sanctuary. It was perfect and the staff at Drink Slingers were so incredibly helpful. Thanks y’all! Xoxoxox James & Mikey.
Drink Slingers helped us with both our rehearsal dinner and wedding celebration. They were great! Sadie was a huge help during the planning phase and was always very responsive. The "bartenders" (truly mixologists) made fabulous cocktails with a friendly smile to go with it. They were also professional and respectful to our guests. We highly recommend their services, and thank them for playing a key role in making our weekend so fun and special!
I hired Drink Slingers about a month before my wedding on April 23 2017 as the bartending services I had contracted through One of a Kind Entertainment fell through (One of a Kind did not have the proper insurance to bartend legally in Texas and are definitely scamming people, do not use them!). Drink Slingers was fantastic and saved the day! Nannette was extremely professional and helpful in coordinating my bartending services. The bartender was friendly, fast and guests really liked him. I very much appreciate the professionalism and great service from Drink Slingers after a nightmare experience with One of a Kind!
