“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!
