At Mixmuse, we believe drinks can be more than just drinks — they can be memories.🧸 I started behind the counter of a tea shop in New York, experimenting with flavors and learning how a simple sip could make someone smile. 🎀 Years later, Mixmuse was born to bring that feeling to weddings and celebrations. Every event we serve is personal — we arrive early, set the scene with décor from our travels, and craft each drink on-site with premium tea leaves, real juice, and organic ingredients. For us, it’s not just about serving drinks — it’s about creating moments your guests will always remember.🌊

Booking Mixmuse was one of the best choices we made. Amy and Jimmy brought not only amazing drinks but also a beautifully styled setup with décor from their travels. Every sip felt premium and personal, and our guests loved having boba as an option. It truly elevated the whole celebration.

Trina made the planning process so easy, providing recommendations on recipes that fit the vibe of our event for us to choose from, as well as recommending amounts of alcohol to have on hand based on our guest count and brands to buy to save money. She reviewed our shopping list ahead of time to confirm it looked accurate. They even printed out a beautiful menu, using our wedding logo, and brought it in a frame for the bar! On top of all that - the drinks were AMAZING and they looked so pretty. Our guests were raving! Working with The Petite Fleet took so much pressure off planning the rehearsal dinner event and gave me confidence that the bar and beverage service would be well taken care of.
