About
Welcome, and thank you for your consideration! After years staffing hundreds of events across the Pacific Northwest, I believe we have built the skills, tools, and experience to ensure your event runs smoothly. We will provide semi formal attire including black slacks, black shoes, and black or white dress shirts.
Our Bartenders will provide all tools necessary to serve cocktails, wine, and beer. We can also help you create a menu of cocktails that can be modified or renamed to reflect your personal style or theme! Our Event Staff will handle all other tasks. From setting up and arranging tables and chairs throughout your venue, to refilling waters, clearing plates, and serving food in your preferred manner, we are here to support you and your guests at every step. Our clients consistently praise our dedication and work ethic, which we bring to every event.
Whether it’s renaming a cocktail, adjusting a service, or requesting specific attire for our staff, we will do everything we can to accommodate your needs. We will send you a quote by the end of the day. The quote will list all the items we will provide, tailored to your needs. Thanks for your time. I look forward to hearing from you!

Daniel did an amazing job. He was prompt, self sufficient, and incredible to everyone there. My wife and I went back and forth if we wanted a bartender or not and we are both very glad we did. Thank you so much Daniel!
and he makes a delicious old fashion!
Daniel is an absolute gem. We were thrilled to have him bartend our wedding. From the get-go, Daniel was responsive, communicative, and offered helpful insight so we could plan appropriately for the amount of alcohol we would need for our wedding. The drinks he concocted were tasty and kept the crowd coming back for more! We whole-heartedly recommend Downtown Bay to anyone considering hiring a bartender. Daniel is your guy!

Daniel was great! He was easy to reach during the planning process, he had great ideas on drinks and was super flexible when we wanted him to stay longer during the party. He did a great job with presentation and everyone loved their drinks! Thanks Daniel!!
