Booked for Birthday party

We really enjoyed having Margarite and Flo create a bar for my wife's birthday party. Both were excellent, friendly, reliable great cocktails. Would definitely recommend to anyone..

Booked for Wedding

Great experience with Flirting Events. They answered all my questions before the event and sorted out glassware hire and collection. They set up the bar area for the team on the day. The staff on the day were amazing, we had a busy wedding with over 100 guests and they had cocktails ready to go constantly and were incredibly helpful and friendly and the drinks were delicious. Would recommend Flirtina Events and definitely would use them again for any big events in the future.

Booked for Private party

Bar staff were excellent - arrived on time, friendly, helpful, knew their trade, cleaned up as they worked, guests loved them. (10/10) RubyLemon admin. staff extremely nice and reassuring, I do think they should be more pro-active in their communication and communicate with all the relevant details at least a week before event - minimum info required, Bar staff names, contact number, confirm timings, staff experience. We have a party most years and in the past used a company in Brighton that are no longer offering this service so being new to using Poptop and RubyLemon I was worried having paid all the money to then hear nothing and have to chase for the details above. The staff were reassuring and really nice when I phoned but a lot of the time there was no answer to emails and noone answering the phone and calling back. It did turn out all fine in the end but when organising a big party it is one worry you don't need. The bar staff advised they only got the request to do the job on the Wed before the party which to my mind was a bit late in the day and is obviously why there was a lack of information being given. (7/10 - purely due to lack of communication and the worry caused and work I had to put into chasing them etc) Finally I would use both yourselves and RubyLemon again.

Booked for Birthday party

The event ran smoothly and service on the day was perfect, arrival was punctual and everything went smoothly. On the day only issue was lack of a menu on the bar (which advert suggested would be provided) There was limited-to-no support in preparing the menu, which is not what was suggested in the advert. Basically we said what we thought we wanted and they said "ok". Shopping list of ingredients was far too late (and I had to send 4 reminders to get it) and communication was very poor between booking and around 5 days before event - had to ask PopTop to intervene to get that communication.

Booked for Birthday party

Dan was absolutely incredible! The communication and support before the event really put me at ease and the event was absolutely amazing! Every guest commented how amazing the team were and how much they did on the day! No one had an empty glass and the cocktails went down a treat. I cannot recommend highly enough! Thank you for making my 40th memorable

Booked for Birthday party

It all went very well. Glasses dropped off the day before and picked up the day after, and Alex, the mixologist was great, excellent cocktails and really friendly and great to have at the party. Made the event very special!

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
