about our menu. Whenever we had a question, he was quick to respond and always super helpful! He even sent us a shopping list which we appreciated! On the day of our wedding, Nikhil brought the groom and I two shots and our signature drinks as we sat down at the dinner table which was a thoughtful touch! We absolutely loved the drinks and service! We would highly recommend Mix and Mingle Bartending!

I highly recommend using Mix & Mingle for your next event! Since the moment I requested the quote, Nikhil was extremely responsive and communicative throughout this entire process....
Prior to the event, he helped us figure out our his & her drinks, provided recommendations for how much alcohol and ice we needed for our 55 person event. He even bought a smoker to make my hubby's requested smoked old fashion. On the day of, Nikhil showed up an hour early to setup and was ready to serve on time for our cocktail hour. He kept mine and my hubby's drink full all night! And kept all our guest happy. I am truly thankful Nikhil was part of our wedding celebration.
