Shelby Elliott

Owner

My name is Shelby Elliott, and I’ve been bartending for over 15 years. Bartending isn’t just my job, it’s what I love and what I’ve built my life around. In 2022, I took that passion and turned it into my own business, providing professional bar services for all types of events, including corporate events, birthdays, anniversary parties, and more. Weddings hold a special place in my heart. Being part of such an important day is truly an honor. I love meeting new people, creating a fun and welcoming atmosphere, and helping couples and their guests celebrate one of the happiest moments of their lives. Every wedding is a great time, and I’m passionate about making each one unforgettable. Shaken. Stirred. Served Right.

etermine how much alcohol to purchase and provided recommendations that made planning easy and stress-free. They also created welcome cocktails for our ceremony and a signature drink for our reception, both of which our guests loved. We has around 120 guests and the bar lines stayed short throughout the night and service was excellent. What stood out most was the level of care and attention Shelby provided. She checked in with my husband and me multiple times throughout the evening to make sure we had drinks in hand, allowing us to stay on the dance floor and enjoy the celebration without ever having to wait in line ourselves. Our guests had a fantastic time, and the entire team was professional, friendly, and efficient. We would highly recommend Elliott Events to anyone looking for exceptional bartending service for their wedding or event.

Shelby is an absolute rockstar to work with! Not only did she bartend my wedding in 2022, but I have also worked with her at events (we do wedding tents, tables, chairs etc.). She ...

is so easy to get along with, very organized and “on top” of everything! We had 300 people at our wedding and I trusted her to bartend by herself, and not one guest had to stand in line to wait for a drink — that’s amazing!! I have known Shelby since high school, and I’m so proud to see what she has accomplished since then! Owning and operating your own small business isn’t for the faint of heart, and she handles it all like a boss! Keep on grindin’ Shelbs!

If you’re looking for a bartender for ANY event Shelby is worth every cent!!

Maryann B

Shelby did an amazing job taking care of our guests at our fairly large NYE wedding!! People showed up to have a great time and Shelby provided a bar service to go along with it!! ...

She brought in back up because of our wedding size to make sure people were served promptly. Eli our second server was personable and made sure everyone was taken care of as well. We received many compliments on our bar service from our guests. The icing on the cake was when I found out Shelby took pictures of little details in my reception room before the guests arrived. I wouldn't have seen these things untouched if she hadn't taken the pictures. She also snuck a video of our midnight toast...going above and beyond!! I would recommend Elliot Events without hesitation!!
