Would not recommend. My wife and I went with Squeeze, because they are associated with the catering company Rosemary & Rye that we had chosen for our Wedding reception. We were told that we would have a single point of contact, and did so until apparently the week of our wedding. Five days prior to our wedding, we were informed that we had no glassware selections for the bar. We had made our bar & catering selections months prior, and received the rental requirements added to the contract for our rental vendor shortly after that. We are unsure if they used to provide glassware, and now no longer do, or if they were overlooked. We were told that we could just use "disposable glassware", which is completely unprofessional. Despite being frustrated, the glassware was added to the rental list and acquired. We had informed all guests that the bar was free(paid for by us), and we even provided transportation to & from the venue, so we told them there was no need for money. We gave explicit instructions that we were going to provide gratuities, so do not put a "tip jar" out at the bar. I noticed a family member pulling money out for the bar. I told them that it was an "open bar" and that they did not need to pay. They said that they knew that, and they were getting money for the tip jar. I was furious, as then I realized many people felt uncomfortable getting cocktails due to them not having money for "tips". The bartender was also not great at his job, as I had asked for a Jameson & Sprite (which we paid an additional fee to have), yet I was provided a Jameson & Ginger-ale. There was no excuse, as I was the only person ordering a cocktail, and there was no line, he just did not listen nor care. There are many other small concerns, which accumulated over the evening, making the Squeeze Catering service a regrettable choice for our reception.

Squeeze was a great choice for our wedding! They worked with us when we decided to postpone our wedding due to COVID and provided a great selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. We decided to do signature drinks (Old Fashioned and Mint Juleps), which were so easy to add to the menu. We also wanted to do champagne toasts and offer wine during dinner, which were great add-on options for our seated dinner. They also worked with us to upgrade a few select bottles (my husband only drinks Johnny Walker Black Label, so how could we not add it to the bar for the night?). Highly recommend them!

We were delighted to have Squeeze serve our guests at our daughter’s wedding reception in our yard on June 12, 2021! Even with a last minute rain, they were able to modify cocktail hour and the reception bars to keep all of our guests happy and refreshed. They have endless combinations of beverages and my personal favorite was the margarita with freshly squeezed lime juice! We were so happy we selected Squeeze to keep our guests’ thirsts quenched so our daughter and son-in-law could enjoy and celebrate their special day!

Squeeze did a wonderful job with the beverage service for my daughter's November 2020 wedding in Charleston. The planning beforehand was easy and efficient and they had a great selection to choose from. Our guests had fantastic service the night of the wedding. The transition from cocktail hour to reception was completely seamless. Everyone was very happy - highly recommend!

WOW! We received outstanding feedback about our beverages served during our daughter's wedding the evening of July 12th! They were so easy to work with to design signature beverages for their special day and offered candid guidance based the bride and groom's preferences. The staff were the perfect balance of personable and professional service. We recommend them without reservation!

I worked with Sierra at Squeeze and we are so happy we went with them for our wedding bar service! Sierra was always so responsive, and worked with me to personalize our wedding bar services to be just how we wanted. We had a ceremony beverage station with water, sweet tea, and lemonade to welcome guests and to make sure no guests went thirsty at our ceremony. For cocktail hour, we had three signature cocktails- His (Jack & coke), Hers (Southern Mule), and Ours (margarita). The southern mules (fresh strawberry puree, vodka, ginger beer, fresh lime) were a complete hit! We are so glad we rented copper mule mugs from our rental company, because everyone loved that drink! The margaritas were also very fresh and absolutely delicious- very citrus-y and not too salty, just how I love them! Sierra and her team did a great job of estimating how many glasses we'd need and knowing how much alcohol to bring- I never saw or heard complaint of anything running out all night. Sierra was very accommodating when we wanted to taste all of the wine/sparkling wine options with the premium bar package (you select 5 from 13 options) and we couldn't find all the wines in the stores so she met up with me and gave me bottles of all the options (which we paid separately for) so that my groom and I could pick our favorites. I also liked how we could substitute one beer selection for a local beer- my craft beer drinking guests appreciated that. The drinks were all amazing, and the staff did wonderfully all night. Though Squeeze is a little on the more pricey side, they are absolutely worth it!!

Squeeze coordinated the bar at our wedding and I can't say enough nice things! From coordinating a pick-up so that we could taste wines to make our selection to the big day, Squeeze was a pleasure to work with! I highly recommend Squeeze for all of your bar needs.

I would recommend Squeeze to any wedding or event! We had Squeeze at our Wedding in May and they were FLAWLESS. Kristen was one of my favorite people to work with throughout the whole process of planning a wedding. She was responsive, kind, accommodating and so patient as we explored different ideas. All of the drinks were perfect, our bartender the night of the wedding was as sweet as could be and overall we were so pleased. The bar was an important decision for us and I couldn't imagine going through the process with anyone other than Kristen and Squeeze. Anything you can dream up...Squeeze can make happen and likely better than you originally envisioned. THANK YOU SQUEEZE!!! P.S- Ask about the Champagne tower...it was MAGICAL and my favorite!!!

I cannot say enough good enough about Squeeze!!!! Our wedding was outdoors (partially tented) during a severe thunderstorm and tornado warning. Guests had to get on buses and crowd into the small bridal suite, and the bartenders were generous enough to bring bottles and cups onto the buses and into the suite to make sure everyone got taken care of while we waited for the storm to pass. And they got soaking wet in the process!! Scheduling with Kristen was a breeze and she was so helpful and easy to communicate with. They are AWESOME and I highly highly recommend them to cater your event!!

I worked with Sierra Webb and it was a great experience! We provided all of our own alcohol and Sierra told us exactly what we needed and what we could/could not do so there were no surprises. We changed our minds a few times and had MANY questions and Sierra was so patient and helpful, she helped make everything go smoothly. After doing a lot of research Squeeze was also the most affordable option I found which was a bonus.

Squeeze provided an amazing bar service for our wedding at Legare Waring House. From the start, Kristen was helpful, enthusiastic and fun - helping us to decide on the bar package that was right for us and working with us to ensure we had everything we wanted. From wine choices to suggesting signature cocktails, Squeeze ensured every detail was right. We got such great feedback from guest about the cocktails and juices - one of the main reasons why we went with Squeeze over other offerings. Of special mention, is the champagne tower that Squeeze provided and sprayed rose gold for us so that it would match the rest of our décor. It was truly an amazing spectacle and had people talking for days afterwards. Thank you for being so helpful and fun to work with Squeeze - you were amazing!

Sierra and the team at Squeeze were incredible! Making sure we had a unique offering of cocktails and high quality wine was very important to us and they were willing to create a custom package that covered exactly what we wanted and didn't have us paying for a bunch of fluff. The staff during the event were friendly, professional, and all looked like a million bucks! I would highly recommend Squeeze for your next party or wedding!

We had such a great experience with Squeeze On Site, from the communication and planning with Sierra, through to the friendly bar staff at the wedding. They offer a great variety of packages and helped us customize it. They were so flexible in the planning and everything went smoothly on the night. We'd definitely book them again!

Squeeze was great for my Charleston wedding! The bar staff was very attentive to details and always quick to serve guests. I decided to incorporate signature drinks into the cocktail hour only a few weeks before the wedding, and Squeeze was great! They had the signature drinks ready and on-hand as soon as the ceremony concluded and available throughout the night.

Squeeze Onsite is by far the best company in Charleston for your onsite wedding services! The management is so easy to work with! They keep your budget in mind, make suggestions on how to make anything and everything you want work perfect for your big day, and are super easy to get ahold of (we all know wedding planning is already hard enough, you dont want to wait for days for a vendor to call you back or meet with you!) Also, if you are nervous you can't afford an onsite service, you can! Sqeeze Onsite really keeps your budget in mind and is very affordable (plus totally worth the money!)! We used Squeeze for our wedding at The Island House last fall and they were great at letting us know exactly what was included (they even included our table clothes!) and gave great suggestions on companies to work with for other things we needed like decorations, venue, tableware/etc. We did a traditional bar and a draft beer bar (which was the hit of the wedding!) and Ley worked with us closely to make sure he got each craft beer we wanted at our Draft Beer Bar! The onsite staff was friendly and fun and they took care of everything from set up, to break down, to even helping us with our trash after the event!! We love Sqeeze Onsite and you will too!!

I recently used Squeeze OnSite for my wedding and they were fabulous!! I would highly recommend them for any of your upcoming weddings or parties. Clint and Sierra were super friendly and easy to work with. All of their staff was very professional and on-time for the big day. Squeeze is also very affordable if you are on a tight budget. Please make them your first call for all bartending services...you won't regret!

Squeeze did an amazing job with the bar service at our wedding. All the guests and my husband and I were incredibly pleased with everything. Everything down to the framed list of liquors at the bar was impeccable. The drinks were delicious, the bartenders were professional and kept all of our guests happy all night. My sister will soon be using Squeeze for her wedding.

1/28/2015 • Michele K

Squeeze was fabulous, they were very helpful and even made our night special with being able to make a original specialty drink for us for our cocktail hour, which was the talk of all the guests after the wedding! We were very pleased and happy with this company especially since they were also able to work with us to stay in budget.

Luckily as the groom I wasn’t responsible for much of the planning associated with our wedding. Frankly, the bar service was probably my most daunting task. In a town like Charleston that’s saturated with vendors it’s a challenge just to establish a starting point. I interviewed around six to eight vendors and shared the same objectives and concerns I would expect from a similar customer and event; packages, creativity, pricing, staff, flexibility, etc. Going through that interview process was really the key for me because I started to understand that most vendors were willing and able to manipulate my unique concerns and vision around what they had to offer, when in fact it should be the other way around. Clint and his team got it right from the beginning; they listened. They were responsive, punctual, and proactive during the planning process and adjusted many of the standard package options for a more customized feel and presentation. I can’t speak highly enough about the staff; their service and execution was superb. Start to finish I was nothing short of satisfied and to say I was very pleased with the end result would be a dramatic understatement. The bottom line is I would highly recommend Squeeze OnSite, and personally I’ll never make a second phone call. Set the bar high. -Jon C.

Clint and the crew are awesome to work with! Clint was easy to talk to and worked with us in our budget. He suggested specialty drinks that matched our personalities and had no problem supplying the drinks we asked for. He even helped me with a surprise to my groom, a Bourbon tasting bar! Squeeze is our favorite bar to visit when in Charleston and they always make us feel like family. Thank you for being a part of our day and help making it so perfect. The only thing that could have topped it off was if Brian the mustache was there! We consider Clint a friend and will happily recommend Squeeze to any fellow Brides that are getting married in Charleston.

Hiring Squeeze on site was a no-brainer. They were so easy to work with, affordable, and professional - a class act all around. We loved our bar service and the aesthetics of our apothecary bar and tufted bar. The staff was really friendly and accommodating to all of our guests. No need to browse any other vendors -- I highly recommend them for your wedding.
