The story behind the bar

You're hiring a person,
not a company

Most bartending companies send a different stranger to every event. You get a stranger in a black polo, a generic bar package, and a generic night.

Poured By You is different. When you book with me, you book me — one skilled, experienced bartender who will be at your event from setup to last call, learning your vision and making it real.

Based in the Midwest, I bring three bar experiences under one roof: a handcrafted Manhattan cocktail bar, a specialty coffee bar for corporate moments, and a vibrant zero-proof sober bar for every guest at your table.

"Your bar. Your bartender.
Your night."

How it works

From first message
to last call

1

Tell me about your event

Reach out with your date, guest count, and vision. I'll get back to you personally — not an automated form.

We build your menu together

Signature drinks, flavors, themes — we design a custom bar menu built around your event, your guests, and your vibe.

I show up — and stay

I arrive early to set up, stay through your last guest, and leave your space exactly as I found it. No surprises, no strangers.

"One bartender.
Full attention."

I limit my bookings so every event gets the same care and focus. Your event is never just another job on the calendar.

"Our whole bridal party was talking about the drinks the entire night. She knew every guest's name by the second round — that's not something you get from a bartending company."
