We LOVED working with The Yokai Collection! We booked the Yokai team for a company party and hired them for aerial, roaming performers, and high-end mobile mixology. They gave us an excellent show and exceptional communication from start to finish. Being able to shop for everything in one place made the process super easy.
They run a lovely boutique style business and it’s clear they put a lot of love & effort into all that they do. We will definitely be returning for their services.

Thank you for the kind words Nicole!! It means the world to our team! Take care and hope to hear from you again. 🙂🖤
Michelle was a complete joy to work with! Her communication/guidance set the tone for an amazing New Year's Eve Celebration... She arrived early and her bar setup created a luxury bar/party vibe in our home that our guest loved. She created a signature drinks menu based off what my wife and I like to drink. During the party, she created shot cocktails for our "shot-o-clock" moments as we counted down the hours to the New Year. She gave tips on drinks and made sure we always had a drink in hand!... Highly Recommended!

Thank you so much for your kindness and professionalism. Looking forward to the next one 🖤✨Cheerz!✨🖤
Michelle brought the party to life at our baby shower! From crafting delicious drinks with flair to ensuring everyone had a glass in hand, she was top-notch. Her attention to detail and friendly coordination made the celebration unforgettable. Our guests couldn't stop talking about her! If you want a mixologist who adds a splash of fun and professionalism, go for Michelle and her team.
She was on top of everything from preparing the list of drinks and mixes to creating the menu for the night and decorating the bar! very punctual and well organized. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
Cheers to a fantastic night!!

Thank you so much Mehdi!! It was an absolute delight to cater to your friends and family! Congratulations on the arrival of your newest family member and please send our well wishes to Golbarg! 🖤✨🖤
The Yōkai ladies were extremely talented and professional. We booked entertainers and a full service bar staff for our private holiday party and it was a hit largely thanks to them.
Such a pleasure working with the whole team. The owner, Michelle, is very hands-on, friendly, and accessible as an organizer.
Can’t recommend The Yōkai Collection enough and happy to support their work!

We loved working with them for our Pride event. Excellent communication and everyone loved Drag Queens. I will reach out again if you plan an event in the area.
We love working with Michelle! We had a bridal shower party and Michelle really made it fun for everyone! She was so professional in her communication and planning for the event. She worked with me on what mixed drinks to serve and had a really artistic menu which included a number different types of drinks! She also catered to our request to have a "mini mixology lesson" on how to pour / make drinks like a pro bartender and our guests had fun making the drinks. The drinks are super good!
We love Michelle's style and her bar setup. Michelle was there on time and was quick to setup and teardown her bar and worked with our space. She's kind and friendly, and she also made sure everyone is comfortable, had drinks, and is having fun! All of our guests were excited to have her in the our party and thanks to her our bridal shower is even more memorable and special!
Highly recommend and we would absolutely work with Michelle again!

The ladies of Yokai gave us an amazing performance that was exactly what I hoped to provide for my best friend's bachelor party, and they were super fun to hang out with as well!

My event had all of the ingredients for a special birthday celebration. Family, friends, and great food. What made my event extraordinary was bartending by Michelle Yokai! All of my guests would agree. 😉 She mixed perfect bespoke themed cocktails and surprised us with special shots. Her lovely setup and exceptional presentation (cause she’s beautiful) was the added touch to a memorable afternoon. I look forward to including her at my upcoming events. I highly recommend Michelle! Five gold stars!

We booked Yōkai Mixology & Entertainment for a private holiday event. Michelle was extremely gracious and professional, she curated a personalized menu, came with artfully prepared drinks, and was a hit with our guests.

Working with Michelle was easy! She put together games, gave suggestions for prizes and found us a perfect -fit performer. Crystal, our performer, was fun, funny, and kept the party light and interactive. I would definitely use Yokai again!
