Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot
We believe the best celebrations unfold softly—through meaningful toasts, shared laughter, and glasses raised beneath open skies. Rooted in Santa Barbara and inspired by agave traditions and Japanese precision, we craft wedding bar experiences that feel intentional, warm, and quietly luxurious. Every pour is thoughtful. Every interaction is human. Our work lives in the in-between moments—the first sip, the lingering hug, the memory that stays long after the music fades.
We are a "Best Of Weddings" bilingual local Santa Barbara wedding bar and beverage catering service. We specialize in Handcrafted Signature Mocktails, Cocktails and Frozés.
Thank you for considering entrusting us with your Big Day!

y they brought day of - I cannot express how many guests separately mentioned how awesome / fun our bartenders were. Nuh especially always made sure I had what I needed, included sneaking me a few mocktails, bubbly water in a champagne glass with a garnish etc. we ordered the alcohol separately, and he also helped review our lists / made great suggestions about where to increase and decrease that we’re spot on. Im so grateful to the team and would HIGHLY recommend them to anybody looking to have an event in the Santa Barbara area!

The owner, Nuh, is professional and comes with great spirits. He is always positive and lightens up the room wherever he is. His drinks are quality, and served in beautiful glassware and garnished nicely. He comes in early and leaves the place spotless. All the guest enjoy him and his team as they offer excellent service. Highly recommend if you’re looking to entertain your guests in a classy and efficient way!

othing short of perfect: tangy, full of flavor, not too sweet and beautifully presented. Perhaps even more importantly, he treats the guests as if they are honored family members, which contributed to a warm and wonderful experience at cocktail hour.

a full bar, specialty cocktails, beer, wine and champagne. As an surprise add-on, Nuh created two types of adult “otter pops” that were refreshing, fun and delicious. Nuh was a fantastic bartender, mixing and pouring with flair and personalized care. He met and exceeded the bride’s, groom’s and their guests needs, staying on top of everything alcoholic for the duration of our event. I can’t rave enough about this company.

argarita, to making sure we always had a drink in hand, Nuh was ON IT. We had our wedding at our house which posed some unique challenges (and lots of bar stations!), but the heartnsoul team pulled it off without a hitch. (Shoutout to John and Emily for running the absolute smoothest bar!) Loved our experience with H&S and highly recommend to anyone looking to have a kickass party! Oh, and if Nuh says he has a surprise for you… trust me, it’s a good one! 😉
