Life of the BARty is a husband & wife bartending service built around one simple idea: Your bar should feel just as intentional as the rest of your wedding day.
We work with couples who want more than basic drink service. From custom cocktail creation to a polished, welcoming bar presence, we help turn the bar into an experience your guests naturally gather around.
Choose from our collection of full bar setups, or new bar trailer with draft beer hookups. Our team of certified and insured bartenders provide biodegradable/compostable plastic cups, farm-to-table citrus juices, handcrafted syrups, specialty garnishes, craft ice, custom menu design, and seamless service from start to finish.
Couples can supply their own alcohol, or take advantage of our liquor license, which allows us to operate cash bars when venues or events require it. This flexibility makes it easier to design a bar experience that fits both your vision and your logistics.
At the end of the day, great bartending isn’t just about drinks, it’s about energy, hospitality, and creating moments where guests feel taken care of. That’s the standard we bring to every celebration we serve.
Planning a wedding already comes with enough moving parts. Let us make the bar something you don't need to think twice about.

nt a detailed inventory list, helped us come up with signature drinks based on our personal preferences, and checked in with us throughout the entire planning process. Truly one of the vendors I never had to worry about. Even my wedding coordinator told me how amazing they were and that she’s worked with a lot of bartenders, and they were the best. We got compliments all night from our guests on the drink quality. Book them!
