    By The Hour Bartending made everything effortless and beautiful from start to finish. The team was professional, creative, and incredibly detail-oriented. They brought our vision to life and made the event feel truly special. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend them for any occasion!

  • Allen E ⪼ 4/19/2025

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    On the day of the event, everything was flawless. Our bartender, Omaur, arrived early and brought everything needed--no stress, no scrambling. He set up well before guests arrived and was an absolute pleasure to work with. Omaur was professional, incredibly friendly, and had great energy that matched the party's vibe. Not to mention, the drinks were top-tier!

    By The Hour Bartending exceeded my expectations in every way. I can't thank Angie and her team enough for helping make the night unforgettable. I'll definitely be booking them again for future events!
