I had a wonderful experience hiring this company for a bridal shower party. Working with the owner, Renika, was incredibly easy—she was responsive and professional throughout. Our bartender, Aikam, was punctual, friendly, and went above and beyond by helping us set up tables and get everything organized before the event. She was also fantastic with the kids, which was a huge plus! Overall, an excellent experience from start to finish. Highly recommend!

Our bartender Jasmin was phenomenal. She served 25 guests in an apartment with ease. As far as bartending, she was a 5/5 star review.
Some challenges with booking included:
1) Cocktail menu provided but no liquor or mix quantities provided. I had to guess how much to buy, leaving me over or under estimating ingredients. I had asked for the exact quantity but was told by the manager that “it’s on the menu”. Basically, I had to figure out what I needed and how much by myself. This should not be the case if a set menu is provided by the company.
2) I had difficulty communicating with booking staff as they often sent cryptic messages. For example, I was asked “what bar tools do you have” to which I responded “I have a single Boston shaker set”. The immediate response was “we don’t use any of the hosts tools, we only use our own”. If that be true, why ask me about my bar tools in the first place… There were a handful of interactions such as these.
Overall would hire again but realize booking and organizing takes more time as the company will not sort out a shopping list for you.

We hired Boots & Bourbon services of Bartender & Waitstaff for our wedding reception - this was the first time we've required anything like this, so we had a lot of questions. From the time we reached out for an initial quote to our final event, Maya from their team supported us with everything we needed! Maya took so much care to plan our bar menu just the way we wanted it. Maya and Khadija were a team of rockstars on reception night - providing drinks for our guests, helping clean up with dishes and glassware throughout the night to ensure we didn't run out and pretty much anything else we asked for. All with smiles on their faces! My husband and I didn't have to worry about anything, it went so smoothly. Love their team, and highly recommend!
