We could not be happier with Happy Camper bartending at our wedding! From start to finish, the team…read morewas professional, friendly, and completely on top of everything. Our guests are still talking about how great the drinks were and how fun the bartenders made the night. They handled the crowd effortlessly, kept lines moving, and always had a smile on their faces--even during the busiest moments. The bar setup looked fantastic, the drinks were perfectly made, and the whole experience felt seamless and stress-free for us as the couple. We loved that they provided glassware and even allowed for us to buy our own alcohol. Buying our alcohol was a must for us since we had a wedding of 230 people so we wanted to get it from a store that allowed us to return the extra bottles that were unopened. The option of making our own bar signs was a plus as well because I loved being able to DIY as much I was able to. They are also one of the only few bartending companies around that is more in the affordable range which was very much appreciated due to our guest count being on the higher side. If you're looking for a bartending company that brings great vibes, excellent service, and total professionalism, look no further. They truly helped make our wedding unforgettable. Highly, highly recommend!

So good, in fact, that, well... let's just say everyone left the party a little extra happy. Beyond the drinks, Jason was just the nicest, most accommodating person ever. He made sure everything ran smoothly and didn't even flinch at our requests or ideas. Jason, you're a legend. Thank you for absolutely killing it, being so cool about our drink preferences, and making our day extra special. You've officially secured your spot as my go-to bartender for all future events. Keep slinging those epic drinks and rocking it!

Do not use Design Perfect Catering. I paid $1169. Which included an $89 delivery fee and $89 tip…read more It was a 6 mile delivery. This was completely absurd. Their pictures show a nice spread and this was all I got. I paid $33 per head. The charcuterie board was $420. The Hummus plater was $195 and the dessert tray $165. I did order 50 assorted soft drinks and water which were $2 each. That seems reasonable. They should be ashamed of themselves. If anyone thinks I'm wrong please let me know. Outside of the drinks this was all that was delivered. There wasn't even a nice set up.

It's not even worth my time to write out every occurrence that happened that night because it was just bad after bad after bad. The owner is extremely rude, gets in conversations she has no business in, unprofessional, likes to micro manage and likes to argue as if it's a sport. I'm a full time wedding Photograher and I've never seen a vendor act like this EVER. It was truly embarrassing and cringey and I will warn every future client to avoid them at all costs.

Janet Lickney has to be the most unprofessional business owner I have ever met. Our biggest mistake…read morewas looking at the reviews on her own site instead of coming here in the first place, obviously she screens and does not allow for negative comments on her website. From the very beginning of our event, she was looking for a fight. Her attitude was shocking, not just with the Mother of the Bride but also with the guests. One guest in particular asked if she could get another of the same beer that she had gotten previously. When "Janet" came back with the beer, the guest was told in no uncertain terms, "this is the last one so don't come up here again looking for it". Who says something like that to a guest who simply requested a specific beer. Janet took it upon herself to open up the bar before being asked to do so and came after the Mother of the Bride when the food was not served within the twenty minute limit stating that she will shut down the bar and leave if food was not served within 30 seconds! Who asked her to open the bar? The bridal party was still having pictures taken. There was so much more but these are the highlights. When it came time to take care of the bill, this woman had the balls to ask, not once, not twice, but three times for an additional tip. This on top of the 20% built into the bill as well as a completely packed tip jar!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? This woman should not be in business, she obviously does not enjoy her work. She hates people and is just not a nice person. Do yourself a favor and find another bar tender for your event. She is not worth the trouble.

Absolutely amazing! I put on an event for my job in Renton…read morethis summer and hired Mari and her crew to do four activations: karaoke, pub quiz, magic show and photo booth.

Mari is a delight to work with: communicative, friendly, eager to help and, like others have mentioned, she goes far above and beyond to customize every element to our event. You can tell she takes a lot of pride in what she does - and she should! She does an incredible job! I cannot recommend Mari and A Amore Events highly enough!

When a Groupon popped…read moreup for a super-discounted Segway tour a couple of weeks ago, I bought a couple in anticipation of her visit, and ended up going with her this past weekend along with my dad and the boyfriend. Segways are dorky, and tours are pretty much always corny. That said, this was pretty fun. It starts and ends at the Waterfront. I had never really explored Pioneer Square before, so I really liked that part. The tour included a stop at the Klondike Gold Rush Museum (the only indoor national park) as well as, of course, Pike Place Market. We got OUR pictures taken several times by Japanese tourists, so that was random. Unfortunately, this was super expensive, even with the two Groupons, so I don't know how much I'd recommend it per se, but if you feel like splurging (or your visiting family members do) definitely go for it.

My daughter had her wedding there a couple of weeks ago. Absolutely loved the property. Being…read morefrom Hawaii, I've never been in such an old, historic property before. The garden area for the wedding ceremony was perfectly landscaped and surrounded by beautiful trees. The dining hall was quite spacious as we had about 100 guests on 10 round tables. It was perfect! The servers were efficient and dinner service went off without any issues. We brought our own liquor and the bartenders were kept busy all night. The food was delicious and really, nothing negative to say about this venue. I can't wait to see all of her pictures!

We went here to attend a wedding in July and it wasn't what I thought it was going to be overall…read more First, it was a little tricky parking. We went around to go to the parking lot. There was ample space which was great but no lines so it was basically a big space. There's a long meandering walkway up to the venue. There's a playground but that's reserved for the kids center. It was sunny that day and the wedding started at 4pm. Unfortunately, more than half of the outdoor seating wasn't covered so I was warm and the sun was in my eyes. It was nice they had microphones otherwise you wouldn't be able to hear. I suppose it could fit about 100+ guests comfortably maybe up to 200+ compactly. Once the vows were done, there wasn't much to do. They have a room with a billard table and a fountain but that's about it. There isn't much in terms of entertainment other than that. The kids were getting antsy and it took them about 2 hours to get dinner ready! My kids were snacking on what I brought them because they were too hungry. They brought out small hots d'oeuvre of bacon wrapped dates and fruity tart with cheese but that's about it. They had 2 kinds of non-alcoholic drinks readily available - cucumber water and rosemary lemonade. They had more alcoholic drinks of beer, wine, and cocktails. Since they didn't have a program available, I didn't know what was next or how long things took. I was about to leave before dinner was served until I asked how long it was going to take. We had dinner indoors and the room doesn't have AC but they had a big fan going. The room was set up nicely - there were 12 tables in all and it didn't feel cramped. The food was decent. Once they let people know we could eat, we all headed over. They had bread and salad all prepared at the table. It took about 20 minutes for the main course to arrive. We left before the cake got there unfortunately because it took so long. How long? 4:30-6:20 just waiting around, down time. 625-725pm salad, main course but no dessert yet. The water jug wasn't cold either. The sea bass was alright - slightly overcooked but I was starving and didn't mind. Roasted summer veggies and steak was fine so was the whipped potatoes. The food came out about the same time for the tables so that was good. One of the bathroom doors werent working and they have hot water but not cold. It looked like the original fixtures. You can tell the place is old and dated.

If you're looking for a caterer, you have to go with Savory Kitchen Catering. Darrin catered our…read moreengagement party on 12/14 for ~20 people with a spectacular menu of finger foods. Darrin got in touch with me right way after filling out an interest form on the website to over the event details, food and budget. He sent over a customized proposal shortly.

Tear down was super easy and painless. Everyone at the party was gushing about his food and services and we will definitely recommending him to all our family/friends and hope to work with him in the future again.

Nola's provided catering and bartending services for our holiday cocktail party with about 30…read morefriends at our home. I corresponded with Nola herself a couple of times in the weeks leading up to the event, and she was very accommodating and patient with me as I changed my mind a couple of times regarding the menu and level of service. It is not cheap to have an event catered, period, but we wanted to have it be an extra-special celebration where we could enjoy ourselves with our guests without the hassle of preparing, warming, plating and serving food and making individual cocktails for everyone. Nola's came through, big time! Nola herself and her bartender, Brandi, arrived a couple of hours early and got themselves set up. We barely had to do a thing once we discussed with them where the bar and food platters should go. We got to just go upstairs and take our time getting ready, and come down a few minutes before the party start time and have Brandi fix us a drink to have in hand as our guests arrived. So luxurious! The party was so fun, thanks in large part to Nola and Brandi and the fabulous food, drinks, and service. Our guests raved about all of the yummy platters - particularly the shrimp with aioli sauce, the mushroom flatbread bites, the smoked salmon toasts, and the charcuterie board with roasted and pickled vegetables. People got extra glowy and happy from Brandi's amazing cocktails, including incredible manhattans and French 75s. Nola and Brandi chatted with our guests and even joined in some of the dancing at the end of the evening! We got to get glamorous and visit with everyone fully after so many months of cancelled and postponed events and having to worry about getting together with too many people. It was, in a nutshell, a truly special and memorable event thanks to Nola's, and was completely worth it. We will definitely be using them again. Highly, highly recommend.

Forever grateful to Matthew and his stellar team!

We hired our bartenders, DJ, waitstaff, room flip and tear down crew all through Pacheco's. It was so streamlined and relieved so much anxiety to know that they had all those pieces covered. From the first moment we inquired about Pacheco's services, the team was SO helpful. James, our point of contact during planning, took all the time we needed to explain their services, how they could best help us achieve our wedding vision, and offer advice, before we even signed the contract. And the "going the extra mile" service only continued and got better after that. Any time we had question during the planning process, no matter how small, we got a timely, thorough answer. Day off, the staff was amazing - they were professional, efficient and fun to work with. Our DJ, Zach curated the perfect playlist to create the exact vibe we wanted. The bartenders and waitstaff were so helpful and had great customer service. And Matthew Pacheco made sure everything ran smoothly, even jumping in to help problem solve when we ran out of food, which was far beyond the scope of our contract. All this to say, we highly recommend hiring Pacheco's for your wedding/event needs!! You will not regret it!
