Hill was amazing! She was super communicative and easy to work with leading up to my wedding. I never actually went up to the bar since people were bringing me drinking all night- can confirm they were fantastic 😅 but my guests spoke very highly of her. Would definitely recommend Jill and will use her for any future events!

Working with Jill and The Wandering Whale was such an amazing experience. From the start communication was great and I was super grateful to not have to worry about anything other than choosing our bar options. We used this service for our rehearsal dinner. Jill showed up early in the day to get everything setup (which might I add the bar setup was BEAUTIFUL). Later in the night the bartender arrived early and took care of everything, she was so pleasant and made the whole experience great. I highly recommend using The Wandering Whale for any event!
