I think Drink Slingers may have been my best wedding vendor, and I loved all my vendors! Nannette helped me with the planning process and she was exceptionally organized, responsive, proactive, and detailed. Overall, Drink Slingers' operation felt very streamlined. On our wedding day, I didn't have many opportunities to interact with the bartenders (Jennifer and Austin) but they got rave reviews from our guests who said they were so nice and on top of everything. I did, however, drink their margaritas all night and they were delicious and refreshing for a hot summer wedding! The marg was my specialty drink of choice and my husband chose the Texas old fashioned which was also pretty solid. Our wedding was an informal garden party theme but despite being informal, we wanted to provide high-quality food and drink to our guests. Drink Slingers was an essential part of that and I don't think our wedding would have been as great without them! read more

Reggie & Evan were very professional, helpful, and brought good energy to the party. They made the night great and anyone would be lucky to have them bartend their event. read more

I used Drink Slingers for a cocktail making class for a group of 8 ladies and I couldn't be happier with how it all turned out. Josh was our mixologist and he was a true delight; he was professional and also had a darling personality. We learned a handful of cocktails that Drink Slingers came up with which were DELICIOUS!! I sincerely will be making them at home for my friends and husband. They all had ingredients I would not have thought to purchase so even just knowing some of those specialty products will be fun to have at my house if I want to impress people with the recipes. We ended up renting their bar which I highly recommend. It elevated the event and made it feel like a real bar. Overall, it was a seamless experience because the Drink Slingers were very involved in creating the event and setting up the presentation. I highly recommend if you want a fun edition to your next event! I'm not sure if it's possible to put in a special request but Josh really was great! Thanks again :) read more

Sykes bartended our largest shopping event of the year! Over 1000 people came to shop our summer fiesta sale in Smithville and they were all (along with us) over the moon with her service. We had multiple people comment on social media and in-store about her service and ability to be efficient in keeping everyone happy and hydrated. Folks had been waiting in line in the hot sun for hours and some had even camped out the night before. She was a welcome sight to all who rushed in when our doors opened!

Sadie was so lovely throughout the process of planning our wedding. We had to postpone twice due to COVID and she made it so easy to change our date and made sure to check up on us.

I absolutely loved working with Nannette at Drink Slingers for my wedding. She had an extensive list of cocktail ideas my husband and I could select as our signature cocktails. We purchased our own alcohol to save money, and she came up with an extensive shopping list for us. It was an enormous help to not have to figure out what we needed to buy! The day of the wedding, they brought a pretty framed menu for the bar. The bartenders who were at the wedding were SO nice and very on top of it. My guests were so happy. I would hire them again and again! read more

As a venue manager, I've worked with Drink Slingers many times. They aren't your average bartending company - they are actually passionate about doing what they do! They always come up with such fun drinks! We hired them for an event recently to do a mimosa bar. They had so much fun with it, they did a "Pomegranate Mimosa" with bubbles, pomegranate, thyme, & sugar on the rim, and a "Winter Sparkler" with rose, blood orange juice, thyme, & bubbles. SO amazing and it was the perfect touch for brunch. read more

Having Drink Slingers serve drinks at our wedding was a great choice! The bartender (Aryn) was beyond accommodating to our requests and served up very tasty drinks. He also had a fun outfit that brought an exciting flair to the bar while still remaining "in theme" for our wedding. The staff is easy to work with and knows their stuff when it comes to serving weddings. All their drinking estimates were almost surreal in how spot-on they were. We worked with Sadie before the wedding, and she helped us select 2 signature cocktails that were huge hits with the guests. We also worked together to create a perfect custom menu tailored specifically to our event and what our guests would enjoy. We would absolute recommend hiring Drink Slingers for your next event! They helped make our special day that much more special. read more

We hired Drinkslingers for our small wedding and could not have asked for a better experience! Sadie (one of the co-owners) was quick to respond to our communications, offered excellent advice and knowledge about what kind of menu options we should offer, and gave us a lot of freedom to personalize our cocktail and beer menu. Even though SXSW was going on during a chunk of our planning period and Drinkslingers was slammed with events, we never once felt that we weren't a priority. Moreover, the service at the wedding itself was outstanding! Drinkslingers did an excellent job setting up a small, clean, well-decorated bar area with nice decorations and lighting. Our ceremony and reception were Lord of the Rings-themed, and our bartender Nicole went out of her way to dress up-- even though she totally didn't have to! She did an amazing job mixing the themed cocktails, we had lovingly tailored for the occasion, and all our guests commented on how friendly and professional she was. We were touched when Drinkslingers reached out to us in the days after the wedding to tell us personally how much they enjoyed working with us and how lovely our wedding had been. From start to finish, Drinkslingers was an attentive, efficient, and stress-free experience that I would recommend to any bride or anyone throwing a large event. Thank you again Sadie & Nicole for your help in making our wedding perfect in every way! 10/10! read more

We were so glad we went with Drink Slingers for our wedding! We worked with Nannette prior to the event and she made my life so much easier! She set up a phone call with me and my wedding planner a month before the wedding to discuss logistics and then followed up with a list of cocktail ideas, shopping list since we purchased our own alcoho, from Spec's, and recommendations regarding how many bartenders/barbacks for the event and everything was perfect the day of! The bartenders were fun and professional and the guests loved the brinks. The flow was also great and there was never a long line at the bar. We would absolutely choose Drink Slingers again and highly recommend them for any events! read more

My office recently hosted a cocktail party for some clients. I hired Drink Slingers for the party. WOW is all I can say, they were very helpful from beginning to end. I was assisted with picking out the drink menu and shopping list. On the day of the event, the bartenders showed up ahead of time to set up and were ready before the guest arrived. All of our guests loved the service and drinks. Thank you Drink Slingers for helping me and my company throw a successful cocktail party. We will most definitely use you again and again. read more

I am on the committee that plans all the fun stuff for my company, so for our Christmas party we obviously needed bartenders. We held the event at our new office this year, so we needed to bring in some drink slingers to help make the evening festive. Enter Drink Slingers. We provided our own booze, and they gave us a list of things we should purchase. We selected a menu of specialty cocktails so there was a small menu of fun drinks, and they could obviously still make the standard Jack and Coke for a partner who shall remain nameless. They provided ice, lemons, limes, bartending equipment, and fun staff. They even picked up, delivered, and returned the cocktail tables we rented so we didn't have to! Ryan and Sarah were our bartenders for the evening, and they were great! They more than kept up with our crew of almost 100 people and were lots of fun. They kept things tidy and helped with cleanup. Nothing but praise. Thanks, guys. read more

So wonderful! Our bartender Justin was amazing and so friendly to all the guests. The signature drinks were delicious and quickly made. The manager also was very helpful and prompt when it came to communication and planning. Our shopping list made it super easy to prepare what we needed before the party. I would definitely recommend this company ! read more

Drink Slingers went above and beyond for our grand opening. Ross and Rose onsite were proactive, friendly, hard-working and totally on-brand with very little direction. For coordination, Nannette Taft (one of the co-owners) was amazing - there were a lot of moving parts and she handled everything professionally, efficiently, and is extremely personable. The event went off without a hitch, and even though it was swamp-ass season, their staff handled everything with such grace. We highly recommend Drink Slingers for any occasion. So much love for this crew! read more

What I love about these guys is that they don't just show up and serve drinks. They really embodied the spirit of my unique business, The FOMO Factory, and played with our customers, took on nicknames, and blended in with the team. Nanette was super helpful with my bajillion questions. I worked with Rose and Erik and both of them were ridiculously good looking, crazy stylish, and just really enjoyable people to have around. read more

I will definitely use drinkslingers again and request Justin, for sure! Five stars all the way! Thanks so much for a wonderful party! read more

There is a reason that every review on here is 5 stars - DrinkSlingers - from start to finish - is top quality. Nannette is super wonderful to work with - very responsive, helpful and makes it so easy. You'll see that word a lot in the reviews - EASY. When it feels easy, it means it's done right. And our bartender Rose is super amazing. We've used her two times because after the first time we decided we didn't want to have a big party without her. Why? Her drinks will knock your socks off and she is super cool! Anytime we need a bartender for a party or event, we will only use Drink Slingers and we will say this to anyone we can. Just awesome! read more

We used Drink Slingers for a 50th family birthday dinner. I was hesitant at first having a bartender as there were only 6 drinking aged adults. We decided to book the "show up & sling" package and we couldn't have been happier with their service! They communicated lots before the event to make sure we had the right tools (still brought their own too) and liquor, mixes etc. We were staying at a vacation rental and were unsure of what might be at the house when we arrived. Our bartender, Wendy, showed up and got right to work making a wide variety of drinks and catered to our many wants and recipes that we showed her (we had a picky birthday girl). She was super accommodating and even acted as photographer for our family gathering, which was priceless itself. Drink Slingers helped make our evening perfect by keeping the delicious drinks flowing without one of us being stuck behind the bar and not able to enjoy the night. read more

Nannette, the owner of this company, very awesome and accommodative. We had specifically asked for Brad, one of the best bartenders in the world, and our entire party was a hit! Yes, it's expensive because you buy your own liquor and things you need but TOTALLY WORTH THE COST! We loved this company! Will always use them for any of our future parties! read more

I hired Drink Slingers for my wedding on October 16th, which had a guest count of about 90 people. Sadie was highly involved and communicated fluidly with me in the weeks prior to the event, addressing any concern or question I had. She also made suggestions for my bar shopping list, which really helped. The bartenders were charming and professional, and the bar was absolutely beautiful when it was set up. There were never any long lines throughout the night at the bar, every detail related to the cocktails was perfect. My husband and I received many compliments on our choice for using Drink Slingers -- several of my guests inquired who my bar service was and took home Drink Slingers business cards. If you desire a stylish, charming and professional bar service, look no further than Drink Slingers. Two big thumbs up! read more

We hired Drink Slingers to provide bar services at our son's wedding in October 2019. We first worked with Maureen (Mo) Mceneary on a proposal and contract. Mo was outstanding to work with - she answered every one of our questions, provided a great proposal and kept the process on track. Our two bartenders, Wendy and Kate, did a great job ensuring that our guests were well served. We dropped off our alcohol at our venue and Wendy and Kate took care of the rest. Everything was properly chilled that needed to be and at the end of the evening, Wendy and Kate packed up the leftovers and helped us load our vehicles. We had a fantastic experience working with Drink Slingers and highly recommend them. We thought their pricing was reasonable and fair and their service was outstanding. You will not be disappointed if you select them for your event. read more
