About The Busy Barkeep
The Busy Barkeep
The Busy Barkeep is a locally owned mobile bartending service created for couples who want great drinks without the stress. I help plan drink selections, alcohol amounts, and bar logistics in advance, then show up ready to serve your guests with friendly, professional service. Whether your style is simple or a little more elevated, I focus on making the bar feel seamless, welcoming, and well thought-out from start to finish.
What sets The Busy Barkeep apart is the personal attention couples receive from start to finish. I work directly with you to plan drink selections, alcohol quantities, and bar flow ahead of time, so nothing feels stressful or last-minute. On the wedding day, I focus on friendly, professional service and thoughtful presentation that impresses your guests — while you get to take all the credit.

I’ve attended several events where Busy Barkeep have been in charge of drinks/beverages. I’m definitely planning on using them for my own future events. While I’m more “mother of the bride” age than bride, I cannot believe how much this company adds to the overall “feel” of an event. They are elegant, professional, and caring. Their services add the extra touch that turns special occasions into magical ones. Much like a grace note with a splash of glitter, they’re the cherry on top. I like their station set up. It looks pretty and inviting. Their drinks are gorgeous! They are little masterpieces in and of themselves. The garnishes are so beautiful, and I love the drinks that swirls and have glitter. The staff is very knowledgeable, and helpful, but not intrusive. It’s clear they know what they are doing. Friends who have used Busy Barkeep say they are great to work with, and consider them to be reasonably priced. I will say they are going to be my go to for my next party, wedding, or celebration. Love them!

The best!
It was such a pleasure to work with The Busy Barkeep for our wedding reception. Victoria is so organized and walked me through planning with ease. Our bar was perfectly stocked, our bartenders Alecia and Cat were such a joy to have, and we had guest after guest compliment how well they did. Don’t pass this one up!

Perfect addition to your day!
The Busy Barkeep was by far the best investment addition to our day! The bartenders were so nice and fun to be around. They are beyond skilled and knowledgeable, providing quick, efficient, and friendly service to keep everyone satisfied and the party alive. The bartenders were quick to make delicious specialty drinks that perfectly matched the theme of our wedding. We did not try one thing we did not like! 10/10 would hire them again!!

Thankful for her above & beyond!
The Busy Barkeep was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From the very first interaction, their communication was fast, kind, and they proved to be incredible problem-solvers. When we ran into a last-minute issue with our original bar service, The Busy Barkeep stepped in with ease and saved the day. Not only did they provide seamless service, but the drinks they crafted were true crowd-pleasers - our guests raved about how beautiful and delicious everything was. Their service went above and beyond our expectations in every way, and we cannot recommend them highly enough for any couple's special day.
