We very highly recommend Vanessa for wedding bartending services! A+++++!
My partner and I hired Vanessa to bartend/be the mixologist at our micro-wedding and loved working with her. We originally reached out to Vanessa because Nature and Spirits specializes in cocktails/beverages that use hyper-local ingredients like syrups that incorporate herbs that were foraged or grown right in Big Sur; we loved that "super Big Sur" vibe. And indeed the drinks that she helped us come up with were a huge hit with our guests and were incredibly delicious.
But Vanessa was also just really easy to work with. She sent us a potential bar menu, helped us go back and forth while we were settling on drinks options, and helped us figure out how much alcohol we would need for our group. She even placed the order with a local liquor store and picked everything up.
During the wedding she was a total charmer who everyone loved chatting with and her set up/breakdown was professional and seamless.
It's also worth mentioning that she was easy to communicate with regarding our COVID safety protocols.
Can't recommend Vanessa highly enough - she was great and our family is still talking about her drinks! Thanks, Vanessa!!
