We have a team of dedicated bartenders, wait staff, and event managers sourced from popular local restaurants here in the valley. We have called Phoenix and the desert our home for decades and know what works even during the tough summer months! (hint: lots of ice and bottled water 😂) Our experienced bartenders and waitstaff are all T. I. P. certified (Training for Intervention Procedures). We can provide certification of our 2 mil liquor liability insurance policy. We will share our extended knowledge of party planning, from throwing amazing corporate events to simple last-minute get-togethers. We can assist with assembling bars in various sizes, staging elegant buffet tables, and all the must-haves. Let us know, how many guests you expect, and what kind of food, drinks, and alcohol you prefer, and we will provide a stress-free event for you to enjoy time with your coworkers, friends, and loved ones. Our team will always go above and beyond your expectations. Your event is important to us as it is to you. Trust us to make it happen! Now Let's get this party started! What sets us apart from other waitstaff teams. We provide complimentary champagne glasses for wedding receptions and celebration get togethers. We also have a large indoor outdoor movie screen and projector. We can also assist with chafing dishes, buffet tables, and table clothes. We do events of every type from: Airbnb get-togethers hint we don't refer to Airbnb as parties due to the new guide lines Holiday events Weddings/Receptions Private/Corporate cocktail parties Sweet sixteen/Birthday parties Bat/Bar Mitzvahs Quinceañeras Last minute-Celebration of Life Backyard BBQs/Pool parties Reunions Passover/Religious Holidays Bachelor/Bachelorette party Charity fundraisers Anniversaries Your celebration should enjoy top-notch service without the burden of exorbitantly high bundled rates that many staffing companies charge.

Our pricing is personalized for each occasion depending on the specific needs to ensure your celebration is a success. We do not possess a license to supply alcoholic beverages for any function. Additionally, we don't hold a license to purchase and deliver alcohol for your event, and we decline to handle events that include self-service of alcohol, in compliance with our $2 million alcohol liability insurance policy.

We had a wonderful party thanks to the helpful effort of Lissa. This was our first party with so many people attending at our home. When Lissa arrived she took charge of not only serving at the bar but helping everyone with their drink orders at each table. Then disposing of used dinners plates, bottles and cups. Lissa was always pleasant and very professional. At the conclusion of the party Lissa assisted with cleanup and even folded up all tables and chairs before leaving. Also many of our friends commented on how efficiently Lissa served us. Big thank you to Lissa and she will be our bartender and server of choice in the future. Calvin and Roxie

The two gentlemen who worked our event were pleasant and polite and kept their workspace neat and orderly. They treated the children who came for sodas and Kool-Aid with just as much respect as the adults. They ran drinks to tables and were prompt and efficient. I would hire these guys again!
