Booked for Birthday party

Chris absolutely nailed it. Easy to communicate with in advance. Made the whole lead up feel really easy. Night of the event turned up early was was ready way before guests came. Bar he brought was perfect for the space. He had two options of sizes, so he is really thinking about it all. Everyone was blown away by the service and experience. Will book again this year that’s for sure.

Booked for Wedding

Fernando and his team are truly exceptional! His professionalism and flexibility made the whole process so much better and gave us confidence that the bartending service for our wedding was in good hands! The bar setup was sensational! Everyone loved it and could not stop going back and grabbing the amazing cocktails they had prepared, or requesting tailor made cocktails that they were more than happy to make. I would highly recommend they’re services and I’ll definitely be using them again for further events!
