About this vendor
We are the #1 professional bartending service in the Pacific Northwest, and we know weddings! We provide professional mixologists, portable bars, all equipment, compostable drinkware and rented glassware, menu signage, water dispensers, and more in our all-inclusive pricing. Unlimited consultation and a customized Bar Service Checklist is also included with every booking, because we pride ourselves in being the easiest part of your wedding planning. Licensed, insured, experienced, and fun!
In our five years in business in Washington State, Oregon and California, we have produced professional bar services for over 300 weddings of all sizes. We are owned and operated by professional event bartenders - NOT weekend vendor "side hustlers" - with a dual focus on top-notch cocktails and seamless, organized service from start to finish. Our professionals arrive on time, in uniform, with all of the information, product, and equipment required to execute a flawless bar service with gorgeous, tasty drinks and friendly service. We do not use event staffing or contractors, ever! Our team of employees receives continuous training on technique, new equipment, industry trends and the latest in all things cocktail. Beware of caterers and event staffing companies that offer bar services on the side - professional event bartending is ALL that we do, so we know what questions to ask, what equipment you need, and how to keep the lines short and drinks flowing!
All equipment is provided with every booking. Our portable bars can be setup anywhere, indoors or outside, and we even bring pop-up canopies for outdoor service. Bar tools, bar mats, coolers, pitchers, beer tubs - we have it covered! We also provide water dispensers and cups, saving our clients hundreds on bottled water. Bar menu signage is included too, so your guests can see what's on the menu before being served by our engaging bartenders. Buying kegs? NO worries! We provide jockeys boxes with C02 for draft service, and tubs and hand taps to accommodate any type of keg. Beware of bare-bones quotes that require you to rent and manage your own equipment - we'll provide everything at no extra cost.
We are proud the be the ONLY Envirostars-certified bartending service in the Pacific Northwest! We provide high-quality compostable cups for cocktails, wine, and draft beer, as well as compostable straws, stirrers, garnish picks and beverage napkins. Venue doesn't have composting on site? NO worries, we provide compost bins and liners and we'll even take the waste with us after the service. Combined with our provided water dispensers, you can breathe easy knowing that you're saving tons of money on bottled water and plastic cups while making your reception more sustainable.
We are fully insured for General Liability ($1 million) and specialty Liquor Liability ($2 million), which means that we can work at any venue, public or private - we also name the venue as an additional insured at no extra cost.

BARTENDERS AND CLIENTS BEWARE! Neil will initially be very nice and accommodating and then, after he gets what he wants (your labor or money), he will become silent, unreasonable, ...
and when he does finally respond will be rude/belligerent. He hired me to bartend for an event a week ago and promised me $500 for the whole ordeal (travel, time and labor). I have documentation in the form of the ad, emails, and a recorded phone call.
Immediately after the event he stopped responding to my texts and calls. It took me two days to get ahold of him and when I did (from a different number since he was ignoring mine) he brought up for the first time to expect payment in seven days. Well today is the seventh day and *surprise surprise* no response or payment in my Venmo. If anyone is considering booking him please know that he did not pay me and it looks like he never will. Monday I am going to file a claim in small claims court to try to recover my money.
It's sad that Neil would scam someone like this but when I look at his precious reviews and lawsuit filed against the company I am not entirely shocked. Karma is real, and Neil, together deserve nothing but shame for how you conduct yourself. He also won't answer me about a mobile bar and a bunch of supplies that are stuck in my garage that I am trying to return to him. I guess he made enough money off my back to buy new ones so he never has to confront me.
Oh, and Neil, I hope that you know that money was to pay for my dog's dental surgery out of pocket that I have been trying to save up for. I took my entire Saturday night of my birthday weekend off to try and do this for Henry and make it happen. You never know what you are doing to someone by scamming them. I have been in tears over this.
Communication was a huge issue. Had to reach out multiple times first, and they missed our first initial meeting which I had taken off time of work for. Reached out to address issu...
es after the event, and no apology was given. All in all, good bartenders but had a few issues, read the contract closely!
