Owner
Hi! I'm Olana, founder and operations manager. Pour Girl was born in 2009 out of my passion for the artistry of craft cocktails. I choose my cocktail ingredients like a chef thinks of dinner ingredients: what flavors pair well? That's the first step, and then it's time to experiment. I was born and raised in Carmel Valley, and I find inspiration in my roots, incorporating local ingredients, taking a seasonal (garden-to-glass) approach to cocktail design, and cultivating strong relationships with local venues. I'm proud of Pour Girl as a woman-owned business that staffs real-world bartenders.

To me a fun night out is girltime and chatting over a cocktail, and bringing that vibe to my wedding was important to me. If that’s also you, I couldn’t recommend the PourGirls mor...
e strongly! They were so kind, they’re drinks were delicious and pretty, and the service was perfect. We did a combo of ordering through their wholesaler and bringing our own supplies, a combination that worked well for us. They’re instagram is really helpful for choosing drinks based on vibes and they’re menu of options was so fun to go through! Thanks, PourGirls for a great evening!

We are beyond thrilled with our experience with Pour Girl! From the moment we booked them, everything was smooth and stress-free. They offered an amazing selection of delicious coc...
ktails for us to choose from, and all our guests raved about them throughout the weekend. The drinks were not only tasty but also beautifully crafted, adding a fun and flavorful touch to our welcome reception and wedding day.
We also booked their mobile bar, Bella, which was an absolute hit! The bar itself is so cute and really added a fun, stylish vibe to both events. It became a focal point where guests gathered to socialize and enjoy the signature cocktails, and we couldn't have asked for a better setup.
Olana, the founder of Pour Girl, was there both nights, and she was an absolute joy to work with. Not only was she super sweet and accommodating, but her professionalism and passion for what she does really shone through. She also took care of ordering all the alcohol for us, which was such a huge relief and saved us so much time and stress. It was clear they were dedicated to making everything go smoothly.
Pour Girl made our wedding weekend extra special, and we would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch bartending services with a personal touch.

ing the menu, recommending proper glassware, ordering enough alcohol, and accommodating our many updates and changes throughout the process.

Olana and her husband provided such an elevated experience with the bartending service at our wedding! Everyone complimented that the drinks were delicious and even started a poll ...
on “his vs. her” drink. The presentation was the cherry on the top. The drinks were garnished with the cutest fresh florals and dehydrated orange and the custom sign for the signature drinks made it extra special. I saw that Pour Girl creates creative signature drink names but I was happy Olana was open to taking the names we thought of too to make it unique to our wedding: Trinh and Tonic and Garebear for our names. The vintage mobile bar added that extra umpth at our wedding venue in Saratoga Springs and the experience and taste will be forever etched in our memories!
