I elected for the basic package ( I provided all the alcohol, and the bartender provided the purees/embellishments/tajin/chamoy). The ingredients list was very thorough and for the size of our party (60 people) it was MORE than enough. We actually had a lot of alcohol left over. The service was wonderful! Our bartender was Nathaly and she was phenomenal. She arrived 30 mins before the event (as promised) and she was timely. We booked for 4hrs and she was willing and we paid for an additional hour. All my guests said the drinks were delicious. She made trays of Mexican candy shots and lemon drop shots. This was a wonderful experience. Highly recommend.

I was expecting an experience similar to the Purple Easel in Ontario where you an have instructor guide you on how to paint a disco ball and cocktails are provided. I left with what Cher from the film Clueless would describe as a "Monet" of a painting and feeling disappointed and scammed out of $50. DISCLAIMER: If you are not able bodied or if you have leg issues, back issues or buttocks issues, this event is not for you. This building is old and I didn't see an elevator. Also, you are sitting on the floor on a cheap throw pillow. I've seen cute charcuterie events at the beach and they provide better seats than this. The flyer does not mention any of these things. For the painting , we basically self taught ourselves how to paint these disco balls. I referred to the You Tube video provided by Art with Mrs. Hibbs called, "Learn how to paint a beautiful and sparkling disco ball." HOW I FOUND OUT ABOUT THE EVENT: I do not follow their social media, just went in blind because my sister and her friends were going and thought this would be a cute event on a Saturday afternoon. I did checkout their social media page after I attended and saw this is the setup for all the events, criss-cross apple sauce on the ground. THE EXPERIENCE: I climbed 2 flights of stairs and arrived to like a studio apartment from the 1920's and in my mind said, "OH HELL NO..." when I saw we were sitting on the ground for this. When I arrived there were thin wooden circles on the table and I asked how to do this and my sister started showing me kind of how to trace the lines on the wood. I asked her where the teacher was and she said she's making the drinks. Turns out everyone else was clueless as well because the party to the right of me were all questioning each other and looking around too. I found out later, that in the first 15 minutes I wasn't there, the girl put minimal effort into explaining how to paint and offered to air drop or text instructions to my sister and she just text her a photo of the finished product, not how to trace the lines or paint it. Thus, I looked up how to do this on YouTube , but then my phone died 15 minutes later. So we're all winging it and drawing lines every which way and all the while the two female hosts are making cocktails and chatting it up with each other like they're in the back of house at a busy restaurant, but they were literally feet away from us in a makeshift kitchen in a tiny studio apartment so we could hear them talking about nothing. Also, there were about 12 of us total and they prepped no drinks ahead of time and spent most of the time just making a batch of craft cocktails and not really mingling with the guests or guiding us on how to paint this disco ball. At some point they brought out popcorn as the appetizer? I mean, $50 and you're going to serve popcorn on a plate and that's the light snack? GIRL BYE! I could've just done this in my garage with sushi from Sam's Club, or charcuterie from Aldi and cool snacks from Trader Joe's. I don't even think they microwaved the popcorn on site?! What I learned from this experience is that this was about the sip and not the paint. I'm all about supporting small businesses and exploring different communities but this event lacked intention and thought and the vibe fell flat. It wasn't giving and also the hosts were too busy making cocktails, passing them out then sitting behind the makeshift counter and either talking to each other or being on their phones. One of the girls came out towards the end and asked how we were doing then proceeded to lie to us and say our paintings were beautiful. The interaction felt forced and insincere. I only liked one of the cocktails and I couldn't even tell you the name of it. It was the one without the pineapple foam. You're better off meeting your friends and new people at a bar in downtown. If you've been to any of the SlowJamz Vinyl & VIno events in downtown L.A., then you know what it's like to go somewhere and meet new people easily and vibe and a major part of that is having great hosts that encourage mingling and get the conversation going. No amount of alcohol, drugs or trendy decor can replace that.

Warning this will be a long review as I think they are worth every penny and more! The best…read morecocktail experience I have ever had! I was a little surprised and thought it was funny when I saw in thier Yelp description that they just flat out put some of their pricing in their bio. That is very upfront-already they were out of my price range as I have hired bartending companies in the past and was just looking for maybe 2 signature cocktails and some standard packages. The owner (Mikey) told me that they offer an incredible cocktail experience and perhaps their services wouldn't suit my needs. Really straightforward and honest. Gave me some good advice about my own party with no pressure and told me to check out their Instagram page for perhaps a future event. Just for fun I checked out their website videos and Instagram and I was in awe or even addicted to their beautiful cocktails. My husbands and our friends all watched the videos and read the reviews. I was so worried- they sounded too good to be true (Instagram beautiful, but disappointing in person). So we kinda all pitched in to hire these guys-we just decided to go all out and ordered EVERY recommendation! We never ordered glassware or tables before and Mikey told us exactly what to order-he was like a wedding coordinator for bars! We got these crazy images printed on rice paper and handmade candy butterflies that looked like really jewelry-just blown away! They were the stars of the party and the vendors. Even the vendors wanted drinks. They had this service where they would just create on the spot which definitely was a pricey option but wow what an experience! It was like a Michelin star cocktail that had Instagram worthy looks all you can drink buffet experience! Every drink that left the bar everyone-would try to take a picture of it. I mean I even saw someone taking a picture of a drink off someone else's phone gallery lol!! Even my wine snob friend and manly beer drinkers wanted in. We are all still talking about the drinks and how passionate they were. Even water and non-alcoholic drinks they left the bar looked too pretty to drink. I swear I heard people saying they felt bad drinking the cocktail's because they were too beautiful! I know this is a long review but I wanted to tell people how amazing this team is. They put everything into each cocktail. I mean you just have to experience it to understand it-it's what Michael told me but wow it's true. Thank you BTG for creating the best cocktail experience ever! I think I will forever be spoiled.

Weeks before the…read morewedding, my husband (fiancé at the time) went shopping for all the ingredients and Efrain was very responsive with all the questions I had. I sent him so many pictures of different alcohols and ingredients, just to make sure it was what we needed and he always responded within a few minutes, which I REALLY appreciated since I was already at the store. For the cocktails, Efrain sent me a list to choose from but I was also able to add a drink that wasn't on the list. We also changed some of the cocktails we originally chose and he was happy to adjust. All of the drinks were really good!!! And everyone at the wedding LOVED Scooby Snack so I definitely recommend that one! During the wedding, a few of the groomsmen also requested different drinks that wasn't on the list we had but Efrain was happy to make it for them. My husband and I were so busy the entire time of the wedding so we didn't get to talk to him and his team but all my guests said they were wonderful. They were extremely professional and kind and their customer service is 100%. I definitely recommend hiring them for all of your events and I will definitely hire them again for future events.

When the bride did not accept, and we asked Efrain to honor his words and agreement, he simply said "no im sorry...".

Seriously, I've worked with so many vendors and NEVER have dealt with someone like this. I have screenshots of this terrible service, but I would rather not go there publicly. Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere! Edit: Original guest count 100, new was down to 75-85. We did the same EXACT wedding last year for the sister with ONE bartender. He mentioned might needing two bartenders total, but agreeing to the ONE. Until last minute that is. Sorry you are not able to service like other bartenders.
