Ginseng Mobile Bar

I have been a bartender for 10 years and having a destination wedding in another state where I had to choose a bartender I didn’t know was nerve racking for me. We love our alcohol and wanted everything to be on point and perfect. THEY EXCEEDED EVERY EXPECTATION. Out of all (25) vendors we ended up hiring for our wedding, Ginseng was the most punctual, communicative and professional to work with. But more than that it was an absolute blast working with them. They were flexible with me (it’s hard to travel for wedding meetings), they communicated at every turn with not only the things they needed, but every ridiculous little question I asked. They have amazing options to make sure your bar is perfect, and they take care of all of their part themselves. They decorate their bar, they make your menus, they even have an add on non alcoholic option which was fantastic. I would have done every single add on they offered and more because I knew without a doubt they were going to do everything right by me. Financially, I kept opening our budget more and more to do more with them because I decided they deserved it more than anyone else did. But it was not necessary and they had many affordable options. I thought at the beginning they were going to be one of our expensive vendors but they ended up being one of the most affordable and reasonably priced vendors we had, and well worth every single penny. Our cocktail tasting was so much fun and it was easy to ask for any changes or have my own ideas (which was important for me since this is my trade too) but it wasn’t even needed because they make some YUMMY drinks. They were the first vendor I was certain about, paid in full and could breathe easy knowing it was done, and the parts that weren’t done yet would be! Wedding day came and my guests LOVED EVERYTHING ABOUT THEM from the bartender that showed up to the drinks they made and the adorable camper bar that was so classy and unique. They handled my guest count with ease and efficiency and every drink still looked beautiful. And let me tell you my friends can DRINK. The only thing I would add on is that you need to buy more alcohol than you think because when they’re serving it, people that don’t typically drink, WILL. (: even my grandma was sipping cocktails! I learned that weddings are hard and who you choose as your hired team make or break it. If you’re anywhere near the East TN area, this is an absolute no brainer. They will not disappoint you, it’ll be the one part of your wedding that goes off without a hitch, stress free. Tara and her team at Ginseng are next level and the best wedding decision I made!!

The drinks, the staff, the drink menu = PERFECT!!! I am so glad we booked with Ginseng for our special day!! The bartenders and the drinks were nothing less than spectacular. We chose to name our specialty drinks after our dogs and Tara was able to add their photos to our drink menus for the venue. It was such a special touch and walking up to the bar and seeing our fur babies was so special. Tara and Ginseng Staff, thank you for your hand in making our day wonderful❤️

Tara and her team are extremely professional. She’s very organized and she understands her business in terms of quantity you need, liquor orders, cocktail ideas. The cocktails they create from scratch or the well known ones taste amazing. She also has all the bar infrastructure you might need. She is easy to talk to and provides all the support you need and is able to accommodate requests. We hired them for our rehearsal dinner and wedding day at Nantahala Weddings. Overall, we had an amazing experience with them and would recommend with my eyes closed. I would also recommend including their cocktail creation in your menu as opposed to well known ones. Your special day is well taken care of by these guys. All the guests also had amazing feedback of their service.

WE LOVE GINSENG. I just absolutely loved being able to walk up and grab my favorite drink and go. Being the bride especially I was constantly on the go with people and that specialty cocktail service made my night so much more enjoyable. The camper being outside the reception wasn't a bother at all, it created its own little social hang out place of its own for guests away from the dance floor. Staff was super fun and friendly. Thank you so much for making our night a blast!
