Rent-A-Bartender

y had accidentally overbooked my wedding weekend and could no longer provide services. I cannot say definitively what caused the abrupt end to our exchanges, but when I reviewed my last email I immediately recognized that it included the first identification of my sexuality. I couldn’t help but feel there was some underlying cause and effect but the desire to confirm this was quickly overshadowed by the panic of being without vendor so close to my wedding day. When I contacted Rent-a-bartender I had begrudgingly decided to include the fact that the services would be for a same sex wedding, hoping to avoid any further let downs. When Peter contacted me the following day I felt instant relief. Not only did he proclaim love for LGBT weddings, but he disclosed that his company was owned and operated by members of of the LGBT community. Our exchanges were daily as I made decisions on packages and considered bar options. I was so impressed with his honesty as he guided me away from spending extra money on unnecessary items and services. When Rob, the owner reached out to me via phone call I was both impressed and honored. He took the time to explain options I hadn’t decided on and expressed understanding while working within my budget. I assumed he had called solely to solidify a plan, but before I could go he stopped me. “I wanted to ask you something about your initial inquiry” he said carefully. “You asked if we were okay with LGBT weddings, and I was wondering if that has been an issue for you in planning?” His concern was genuine and thoughtful. His approach left me completely disarmed. I shared some of the struggles we faced when vendors would stop responding or would respond with phrases like “Christian-based” or “traditional marriage.” He offered sympathy and listened intently as I recounted some of these emails. What was originally a standard vendor call quickly became the vent session I didn’t know I needed. He was the CEO of a successful business and he took the time to reach out and offer comfort and a listening ear. He even followed up after the wedding to ensure we were satisfied and had enjoyed our night. My new BFF Peter continued his support throughout the remainder of the planning process, immediately responding to to emails well into the middle of the night. I have since encouraged he practice some serious self care and leave his emails for the morning! The day of the wedding proved stressful as vendors ran behind schedule, forgot items, and struggled with WiFi. The Rent-a-Bartender team was prompt and efficient in setup, breakdown and delivery. The bartenders were amazing and professional. While I didn’t have eyes on the bar the entire night, I never saw so much as a line form for a open bar with over 100 guests in attendance. Guests enjoyed their drinks. The illuminated bars were stunning and truly added to the aesthetic of an outdoor wedding under the stars. The pricing was incredible for the standard of service provided and the overall experience far exceeded my expectations. I don’t know what I would have done without Peter and the entire Rent-a-bartender team, but I am eternally grateful for whatever serendipitous force lead me to this vendor. I will never use another catering company.

elect service providers that really cared about helping us with all of our last minute questions and possible hiccups. Best advice I can offer someone else who's planning their own wedding, definitely go with Rent a Bartender here. James and Peter in the office came through so many times for us and event the owner, Robert stepped in and showed up to our venue site to help with some last minute "day of" issues due in part by our lack of good planning. This is a company that really means it when they promise great customer service. We used them to fully cater our bar services and we were very impressed with the package selections they offered us and worked with us to stay within a per person cost range for it. The staff they sent us was totally amazing. You often think you're going to get people who just show up, plaster a fake smile on their face and grind through the job. Not these guys! Totally professional and expert bartenders but most importantly, they had such great personalities with connecting with our friends and family. We had more compliments about these guys that any other service provider we used. Highly recommend !!!!

e out what we wanted in terms of bar service and consumption for all our family and friends but these guys really worked with us to make things easy. Communication with their office was probably the best in terms of all the vendors we used when it came to communicating our needs and hashing through details. We had a few last minute changes in terms of set up due to weather and these guys really pulled no punches in helping us quickly change the entire set up. Day of, their team even pulled together to help our other vendors move things around to make sure we had enough help. Jessica and I are glad we made the right choice in going with this company. Very friendly staff as many of our family and friends commented to us on their service and ability to conversate and connect with them. We both are born and raised in South Florida and will be sure to recommend Rent A Bartender to our friends. Thank you again for making things so easy for us.

ere and his company to do bar service at a wedding. Two weeks before the wedding I received an email stating he was unable to secure the necessary liability insurance because his insurance company would not insure him at a gambling establishment. Seeing that he stated in our original phone call that he was familiar with the venue he would have known that The Lake Worth Casino Ballroom is simply a name and there is no gambling occurring any where on the premises. Since then I have been given the run around regarding the money I paid him. Really thought you were a high caliber vendor. Honestly Mr. Legere... I am completely and totally disappointed in how you have handled this whole thing.
