Sip Bartending saved the day! We had a housewarming and two-year-old birthday combined and the day of the event realized we needed a professional bartender, like now! After calling a few businesses, they were the first to get back to us, super professional and very competitively priced. Aside from being super available and well priced, the team was above and beyond what we expected. Very friendly and super capable mixologists! Highly recommended Y'all! read more

My best friend hired Sip for my baby shower and they were AMAZING! They truly helped to pull together one of the most special and memorable days for me. The girls (Cynthia and Diane) were so sweet and attentive and made fabulous cocktails (both faux and real!). After the party, they helped clean EVERYTHING up - not just the bar. I know my friend was stressed out and tired from all of the planning since it was at her house so to see that everything was cleaned up and back in its place once we were done saying our goodbyes to everyone was just the biggest relief and above and beyond what these girls were hired for or expected to do. The owner Natalie also goes FAR above and beyond to help her clients (my friend needed help so she showed up at 9am to help set up the shower, meaning things in addition to the bar, even though she wasn't working the party!). I find this level of service to be a rare gem in LA and will hire Sip for any and every event that I can! read more

Wow! I had no idea when I booked Natalie for my mom's 60th birthday mixologist party, how awesome the experience would be! She was not only so incredibly knowledgeable on the cocktails we chose to make, but so warm, entertaining and engaging. Prior to the event, I picked three drinks and she helped us execute them to our liking on the day of the event. Natalie was extremely professional and I highly recommend booking her for a mixologist party! read more

I planned a mixology 101 party as a Christmas gift for my boyfriend (with no clue where to begin...) and Natalie helped me pull it off with ease! She helped me plan a great cocktail menu that won over a group of 10. The drinks were such a hit that everyone kept making their favorites after the class ended. All the reviews on here are spot on - Natalie is wonderful to work with and communication was easy. Highly recommend using SIP for your next dinner party! read more

Sip bartending is the way to go. If you want to enjoy your party and not play bartender hire Natalie. She was the best. Very professional. All my guests complimented that the drinks and service was incredible. She helped with the drink menu, communication was super easy. If I could give 10 stars I would. read more

My daughters hired Natalie for a surprise intimate 60th bday celebration. We could not have had more fun or laughs and enjoyed being our own bartenders for the evening! Thanks for the celebration! Cocktails were yummy and Natalie delightful! read more

See all

I actually found Sip on an event services website. After going back and forth with a few different companies, we decided to book them for our album release party back in December... mostly because the owner was no-nonsense with the contracts. They were also competent and prepared when we hit them with some logistical requirements. This was most appreciated since there was such a short time until the actual drop date. I was just praying that the actual event would go as smoothly and it did. We settled on a couple "signature drinks" and the drinks were a hit- presentation-wise AND taste-wise. They even somewhat incorporated the album title into how they served up the drinks- So slick! I know I couldn't be more pleased with the way our party turned out. I also know I'm going to call them up for a team-building event planned for March (I'll be sure to update you on that, as well). Bottom line: If you're in the market for bartending- mixology services, call these guys up!! read more

I have so many great things to say about Natalie and her staff! Natalie is such a hard worker!!! She works full time and is a small business owner and she does everything seamlessly. She was a true professional from the moment we started planning. The great aspect about her service for me was her ability to adapt to the changes we were making to our wedding as it got closer. Every time I told her "You know what we are actually going to ..." She was totally cool with the change and made me feel like she was on top of it. And of course she was! The guests at my wedding loved her and she did such a great job of entertaining and keeping everyones glasses full. I would without any hesitation recommend SIP Bartending and Natalie for any event, party, or special occasion. Thanks again Natalie for helping to make our big day so great!!! read more

If you are looking for bartenders for a party or mixology class, look no further and hire Sip Bartending for your next event! My friends and I had so much fun learning how to make drinks with Natalie and Cynthia. Natalie made sure the entire experience was fun for everyone (including a few friends that do not drink). She was also so incredibly easy to work with and had a ton of great ideas to help make sure our experience was as fun and seamless as possible. Every single one of my friends had a blast and couldn't stop talking about how great the drinks tasted and how much fun they were having. I can't wait to have another reason to hire them again! read more

Natalie was FANTASTIC! We were throwing a party for a birthday party and needed a bartender to come through with very little time to prepare. Man, did Natalie pull it off. So pleasant, competent and professional. It's so nice when you hire someone for a service and the experience goes above and beyond what you're expecting. She was a BIG reason the party worked so well...helping orchestrate things, cleaning up, and, of COURSE, making fantastic cocktails. I wouldn't hesitate to hire Natalie and her staff again. Trust me. Don't look any further, just contact her and be happy. read more

This was the first time I've ever worked with a bartender when hosting a party at home, and I have to say, Natalie really made my life SO much easier. I reached out to Sip based on reviews & location, and Natalie got back to me with a very fair quote super quick. We touched base a couple of weeks before the party, and again by email a few days ahead, and the event went super smoothly. She showed up an hour before our guests and was super efficient with getting our home bar set up, even though I threw what I thought was an overwhelming variety of liquor, wine, beer, and mixers at her. Things were a bit chaotic, but Natalie was refreshingly relaxed and low maintenance. We just showed her where all the stuff was and she took care of everything. I tend to get frazzled when entertaining, and Natalie was so sweet & has a very calming influence. 100% we will work with her again! read more

Hired Sip Bartending for my dad's 80th birthday party (Hawaiian Themed).... They did a great job serving my guests (approx 200 guests). She came dressed in her grass skirt and served Hawaiian Themed Drinks all night! It was a very successful party and SIP Bartending had a lot to do with it --- drinks were flowing, she got everyone in and out of line quickly and more importantly, the drinks were delicious! read more

The drinks were great, and Natalie was just as great to work with! She has a real feel for the vintage cocktails that we like and that we wanted for our wedding in downtown LA. She was a big help in planning our liquor and beverage purchases for the day, and she and her fellow barkeep were a friendly and fun presence, taking good care of our family and friends. This included saving the day when I made the rookie mistake of forgetting to bring the jug of drinking water. D'oh! But Natalie quickly repurposed another dispenser and made sure our guests could stay hydrated through the evening. I'm so grateful for that save! I'll add one more bit of praise: Our venue (the downtown branch of LA Public Library) had some pretty strict requirements for proof of insurance and other such logistics. Natalie was quite cheerful about jumping through these hoops, which was a big help as we tried to plan the wedding remotely from Seattle. read more

I hired Sip Bartending for a holiday mixology lesson/party for my girlfriends, and it was a huge success! Not only did Natalie customize a cocktail menu for us with fun holiday-themed drinks, but the mixologist she sent to my home (Matt) was incredibly fun and chatty, and explained each step of the lesson very well. My friends had a great time, and it was an evening we'll remember for a long time. If you need a unique component to an upcoming dinner party, birthday, or friends' night in - this is a fabulous option, and very well priced for the level of service you receive. read more

Natalie and Gayle are amazing!! I hired Sip for a private mixology lesson for my wife's 24th birthday and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. It was the perfect way to learn proper bartending techniques without making it feel like a "class." We had an absolute blast! Thank you for an amazing evening! read more

Natalie and her team of mixologist are amazing! Highly recommend them for your next event. Professional, fun and organized.

Hi again! I have just finished a party and hiring Sip for the SECOND time. I'm obsessed! They are so fantastic and helpful that I can't imagine having another party without them. It was so nice to have another set of helping hands on deck and I couldn't have asked for better service. Thank you so much Sip! read more

Just used Sip Bartending for a third year for our annual Christmas party. As always they did a fantastic job! We actually have time to spend with our guests with their help. They have made our parties so much enjoyable well worth the expense. Looking forward to using them again at our next event. Thank you Natalie, Amber and Whitney!! read more

My husband threw a 50th surprise party for me! Natalie was an added and excellent surprise. So nice to have a professional bartender attend to guests. She and my husband created a signature drink menu, but she also served wine and beer that we had. Special plus, we rented a bar, and that made an even more festive atmosphere and Natalie had her own space to do her thing. It was a great party and I highly, highly recommend Natalie. read more

Anyone need a bartender? SIP Bartending is the place to find a great one. The owner, Natalie, is very professional and helped in making my Electric New Year's Eve Party a success. She customized a drink menu as well as ensure I had everything I needed for everyone's drinking needs. Anelee, the bartender that was hired for the night was awesome!! Not only did she pour delicious drinks, she did a great job getting everyone into the New Year spirit!! I have already booked another event with SIP bartending!! Looking forward to working with SIP in the future!! read more

I found sip bartending though a friend who used Natalie for her daughters 1 year old party. So I hired sip for a baby shower I was throwing for my BFF last weekend thinking it would be a nice touch....well let me tell you......Natalie became a godsend! I was by myself the morning of the shower having to do all of the set up on my own because of circumstances out of my control and needless to say, I began to panic. I texted Natalie and asked if the server and bartender that were scheduled to work my party at noon, could arrive earlier to help me. I knew it was a longshot but I was desperate. This was at 9am in the morning and Natalie (who wasn't scheduled to work my party) appeared in about 10 minutes like an angel and helped me for 3 hours without knowing me AT ALL! We are not friends and met only once at another client's home back in May. Natalie swept in and literally saved me from having a meltdown!! She was calm and collected, and without thinking, jumped in and began to clean, set up my tables and just took charge like a seasoned professional!! She SAVED ME!! Then when her staff arrived as early as they could with no notice, they were top notch and began busting their butts to help me get ready. Diane & Cynthia were amazing, professional and worked very hard. Diane didn't hesitate diving into every scenario to help me and I can't say enough about this company, the owner and the staff. I am making it my mission to spread the word about sip because it's rare to find a company that cares about it's clients and goes the extra step to help. After having been in the event PR business for 16 years, I've never been more impressed!!! HIRE SIP!!!!!! read more

SIP Bartending came through for my family and I and brought ease, professionalism, and a compassionate, personal approach to the hosting of a memorial service at my home. This team of pros from Natalie, to bartender, to servers made the entire process easy and quite honestly, perfect! I was able to leave my home, attend a funeral, and return to my home assembled and ready to cater to our family & friends and honor a life. That's exactly what SIP allowed me to do. They made the entire experience free of stress & allowed me to bow out of hosting and be present with family and guests. With the highest recommendation - SIP was the BEST! read more

I've hired Sip Bartending twice now, both times for my parent's 60th birthday parties. They are AMAZING! Natalie is professional, attentive to your needs, and delivers exceptional customer service. Jimi was our bartender at both events and he is fantastic! He is super fun and friendly and our guests absolutely loved him! Hiring Sip Bartending is truly the best thing I did for my guests. The drinks were delicious and the experience compares to no other! If you're hosting an event of any kind, take the pressure off of yourself and let Sip Bartending work their magic! read more
