This guy almost ruined our wedding!! Total scam artist, and now he has ghosted us after offering to refund us for the 3 hrs he was late. We had nothing to give our guests as he assured us he had it all covered down to the bottled water and cups. Cocktail hour with no cocktails to serve our guests. We had to serve dinner with no drinks. One of the guests actually saved the day when she left the wedding and went to abc and grabbed liquor and mixers and then hopped behind the bar to help us out. It ended up costing us over $400 more in liquor because we did not even know at this point if he was gonna show or not. When he finally did show, he should have had more than enough liquor to last the last couple of hours left but actually had ran out of a lot of specific stuff like rum, bourbon, etc.. After we got back from the honeymoon, we heard from multiple guests that he was doing shots of our liquor behind the bar, but he ran out of liquor. Why? We were also told that he asked a 13yr old to give him a 5 star review, to which her aunt replied, "You know you are talking to a 13 yr old right? His reply was, "I don't care as long as she gives me a 5 star review." Did he serve her too?? Why in the world else would you ask her for a review?? I would absolutely NOT go with this bartender. He is incapable of such a responsibility, and your special day deserves way better than what this guy has to offer.

Hire at your own risk!! Did my mom's party. Tasty signature drinks but he's very slow to respond except when he's looking for payment. I am also out of $52 from ordering a bottle of 1 of his signature drinks. He requested I pay upfront which I did. He then made excuses for meeting with me to deliver the bottle and has since ghosted me after I've requested a refund. No bottle and no money back. Criminal behavior.

DESERVES 0 STARS - a DISASTER. I don't want to say too much because we are contemplating legal action (yes that bad). But there will be a more in-depth review coming, just wanted to try and save others before they book.

CAUTION! As a military family, we rely on timely responses and trustworthy vendors to take care of things before deployment. Unfortunately, our recent experience with Taylor Made Bartending has been anything but reliable. We initially contacted Evan in January regarding a refund that we were owed. He promised to refund us in February, but failed to do so. After some communication, he assured us that he would issue the refund in the first week of April. However, it's now past that date and we still haven't received anything. Despite multiple attempts to contact him, we haven't received any response from him. This whole situation is not only frustrating but also disappointing. To make matters worse, Evan claimed to have received a sudden promotion, which led us to pay an additional $200 (non-refundable) for alcoholic beverages. He said he wouldn't refund that amount, but promised to give us the alcohol instead. However, he has not responded to our calls or emails, and claims to be busy or unable to answer. We feel ignored and abandoned, and he is leaving us in a difficult situation. It was very easy to get a hold of him at the beginning when he was trying to make a sale. However, now that we're asking for our refund or the promised alcohol, he has gone silent. We will continue reaching out to him until we receive a response, but we wanted to share our experience with others who may be looking for bartending services. We'll update this post as soon as we get a response, the alcohol and our deposit.

Awesome service! Super personable and easy to work with. Made my wife and I feel like family! The drinks were a hit at our wedding. He provided us with a clear and thorough consultation prior to the date. He also made a beautiful wedding drink menu catering to our needs.

Any questions we had, Evan would respond right away! We had no clue what we were doing and don’t drink a whole lot, so he broke it down for us and told us what he thought would be best, and we had some delicious signature cocktails that our family and friends really enjoyed !! Very professional, informative and great communication. Awesome set up that he had, we are so grateful !!

Taylor worked with us ahead of our wedding, where we got to sample multiple cocktails until we found 3 we really liked. He custom makes a lot of his own ingredients which was really cool. He is extremely knowledgeable about bartending and mixology. He also created a tastefully designed printed menu free of charge, and helped us pick up our liquor order which was super helpful since we were from out of town. Throughout the entire experience, he was extremely professional and very easy to get a hold of. We got multiple compliments from our wedding guests about his personality and delicious drinks. Hire him for your wedding; you won't regret it!

You will not be disappointed hiring Taylor Made Bartending! I can't say enough good things! He was professional, prompt, and all the other things you want in anyone you hire to do a job! Evan worked with us to create the perfect menu for our wedding! He knew we were looking for an autumnal menu so he added extra touches to make it even more special than I could imagine! He was also very flexible working with me to get me exactly what wanted on our wedding day. He was just a lot of fun to work with and to have at the wedding!
