The first step is to get to know each other, preferably through an in-person (free) consultation, and build an understanding of the event based on trust & transparency. Whether our clients already have every detail worked out or have no idea where to start, we offer a range of service and coordination options that can be fully customized to the need each unique event. We work with clients on themes, a signature cocktail design (at no additional cost), planner, vendors & supplier coordination, and provide a thorough checklist to guarantee not a single detail is overlooked. If clients opt for a custom or package cocktail menu, once a deposit is received, we set up a free tasting to sample our wares. For complex events, we also prefer to do a site walk of the venue with the client or their event coordinator prior to the big day, to ensure logistically seamless service in line with the decor and unique atmosphere planned. For all events, clients are contacted by their lead bartender a few days prior to the date to introduce themselves and clarify any last minute details.
I, Lisa Scott, the owner of Gypsy Libations, have been in the event, hospitality & beverage industries for over 10 years. I got my start in event bar management while living and bartending for several years on a small, very rustic, tourist island in Thailand. For 3 years, I operated a grassroots organization that worked with local businesses, through various profit-sharing models, to host cocktail parties and other events around the island to raise money for the island's school; specifically to create educational opportunities for the children of Burmese migrant workers. I had never worked so hard, been so fulfilled, or had so much fun in my whole life. Since that time, I had been meandering my way through the full spectrum of professional event service roles, trying to find the right fit, until it dawned on me I needed to return to what had ignited my passion for hospitality in the first place. I'm very excited to be back at the helm, planning and executing event bar service- feels like finally coming home, in a professional sense.
All our bar staff have completed TIPs alcohol service safety training, and are well versed in industry standards and issues legal liability pertaining to our business. Most have professional pouring experience longer than the average college education. I personally have current TIPs & ServSafe Certifications, Brighton PD liquor training, and in the process of obtaining my food manager's certification. Additionally I hold a certificate from Denver Bartending School, and hope to complete my certificate in Beverage Management in the next year as well. I have been trained in, managed, and trained others in a wide range of hospitality service styles laws and standards, from crowd control at a rowdy dive bars and non-profit public festival bars, to synchronized fine dining at exclusive galas.
A caterer's first passion is usually the food, and while most companies will supply bar labor of varying degrees of professionalism, beverage service is usually an afterthought. However, a guest's experience is frequently shaped much more directly by the friendly face at the bar, often the communications & command center of an event, than even the delicious meal awaiting them.
At Gypsy Libations, our first passion is exceptional service (and making seriously delicious cocktails, of course). Our mission is to create a truly joyful experience for your guests, in a safe & welcoming environment, so that you can relax and be part of the celebration. With all the time, energy and resources our clients pour into hosting the perfect event, we consider it our personal responsibility to make sure all the individual elements come together as one seamless whole. Having an experienced event professional on the floor with guests, interacting personally & meeting the needs of each one, often determines the difference between a mediocre event and the magic that happens when a meaningful social or professional occasion becomes more than just the sum of its parts. Let us make that magic happen for you.
