Meagan was amazing! Words are not enough to describe the excellent service she provided. She made a huge difference, always willing to help with the best attitude. She knew how to handle everything and took care of the food, making drinks available, helped us cleaning, etc. She was definitely above and beyond! If I hire the services of this company, I want her to be assigned. We are very happy that she was there in the day of our wedding and we could enjoy the event without having any concern.
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:
Thank you so much for your honest feedback. We are so happy you had a great experience & we would be honored to work with you in the future. Congratulations on your nuptials.
Although there were unforseen changes in the scheduling and preparedness of food these professionals quickly adapted, got everything set up and made the day incredibly less stressful. I genuinely appreciate their calming presence.
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:
Thank you for your honest feedback. We appreciate you allowing us to be a part of your special day. Anything we could’ve done differently to gain that extra star?
Showed up on time, provided everything that was needed and was incredibly professional!!
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:
Thank you so much for your honest feedback. We’re glad that you enjoyed your interaction with Hope and she was able to meet your expectations. Looking forward to doing events with you in the future.
Meagan was the perfect bartender/mixologist. She worked with me in advance of the event to create custom cocktails (including a more unusual one that is our favorite from back home in England), she had excellent and clear communication throughout, she designed a beautiful bar menu and nothing was too much trouble. She arrived punctually with everything needed for our pop-up bar and we were impressed with her professionalism - she even spotted problems before they arose and cleared up messes when our guests spilled their drinks (totally not her job, but we appreciated that she went the extra mile!). The drinks were delicious - highly recommend her Espresso Martini with homemade cold brew - and the British cocktail made us feel like we were at home, it was so authentic and delicious. We loved how customized it all was, and everything tasted great too. I could not have asked for a better experience. I will definitely use her again whenever possible and I know she will have repeat business from our friends too. 10/10 highly recommend.
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:
Thank you so much for your honest feedback! It was a true pleasure to serve you all. My favorite part of the evening and probably my greatest compliment as a professional was making you alls signature drink and having your husband tell me that it tasted like home. Beautiful evening with great company. Thank you again!
The team did a great job communicating and showing up on time. We really appreciated their help at our event. I’d recommend them to anyone within driving distance of Burlington, NC!
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:
Thank you for your honest feedback. We definitely enjoyed being a part of your wedding. Beautiful couple, beautiful ceremony, and beautiful company amongst your friends and family. Go heels! 🐏
Our bartender and server were great. Arrived promptly and were very helpful. Went above and beyond.
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:
Thank you so so much for your honest feedback. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need any event staffing for your next event. Congratulations on your nuptials.
Hats off to Megan and her team on the job the did.
When an unexpected issue came up, we scrambled to get help with our event. We reached out to Megan. Her team came through like champs. Providing excellent service created a very classy atmosphere. We will definitely reach out to her for help with future functions.
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:
Thank you so much for your honest feedback and we are so pleased. You were happy with the service you received. We look forward to many more events with you in the future.
I had high expectations for our scheduled meeting with the waitstaff at 5:45 PM, but unfortunately, the experience fell short. Despite arriving on time, no one showed up until I called at 6:10 PM, only to be told that the assigned waiter was unresponsive. Another waiter was eventually sent, but they didn’t arrive until 1.5 hours after the original time.
While the replacement waiter did an excellent job, the first two hours were critical for welcoming my friend to our party, and I had to manage everything on my own, which was quite stressful. I appreciate the effort to remedy the situation, but the initial delay significantly impacted our event.
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:
Thank you for your honest feedback. Unfortunately issues do sometimes arise, but I definitely hope that the replacement server exceeded your expectations.
Excellent service and great communication with quick responses. Every request was met. We enjoyed having you as our bartender for our wedding. Meagan handled everything so well, from set up, to tending the guest, to taking down. Will definitely use again and recommend to anyone planning an event.
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:
Thank you so much for your honest feedback. We look forward to doing many more events with you in the future.
The young ladies did an excellent job serving our guests. They came in ready to work and pitched in wherever needed. They were professional and pleasant to the guests. I would highly recommend them.
We needed a server to help with the Fellowship after my Mom's Funeral. We were blessed with the most beautiful soul and amazing person. She went Above and Beyond what was asked of her. It was very easy booking and the company stayed in constant contact with me! Messages were answered usually in minutes! Please don't hesitate to book with them !
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:
Thank you so much for your honest feedback. We are so pleased to hear such positive mentions of our staff. Thank you again for entrusting us with your delicate event.
Meagan was wonderful!!! She made sure everyone had shots and drinks without a long wait. She called and discussed drinks that i wanted and created and she made a bar sign that went with the drinks and she made them perfectly. She was right on point. Thank you!
I highly recommend this business.Their customer service is second to none. The punctuality, appearance and professionalism is consistently outstanding, exceeding my expectations every time. This is my second time using Pretty Pours and we will be using a third and fourth time.
Megan made guests feel comfortable and attended to their needs. As a part of her skills set, she poured drinks, picked up empty plates from guests, and offered to bring anything needed for our guests. We will definitely hire pretty pours services again.
I hired Pretty Pours on VERY short notice (less than a week) and made my day as effortless as it could have been! I had an outdoor wedding reception and Meagan and her team were PROFESSIONAL, HELPFUL, and went above and beyond! They had all of the guests pleased and stayed 2 steps ahead of what we needed.
I had a very detailed itinerary and they kept things moving along for the entire event.
Through all of the moving and shaking- despite giving my phone to my niece- I didn’t get a single picture of the event and the ones from the guests came in a week later 🤦🏾♀️
Meagan actually took some AMAZING shots and sent them to me the next day so I was actually able to see what we experienced.
They handled the setup, serving, refills, keeping tables clean, protecting my top tier of my cake, cleanup, and even made sure everyone had food to take home. Since I was coming from out of town, I had a LOT of boxes to start. By the end, what supplies were left were all neatly packaged to transport back home, which took so much of the work off of me!
If I ever had to go back to North Carolina, I would DEFINITELY use Pretty Pours again! Unfortunately I’m located in Georgia, but if they ever expand to Georgia, I’d hire them for EVERY event!!! **hint hint**
You can’t go wrong with Pretty Pours!!!!!
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:
Thank you so much for your honest feedback. We are so happy we could make your day that much more special. We wish you two all the happiness and will fill you in when we expand, not if 😉. Thank you for sharing the final pics, definitely shed a happy tear over here. Thank you again and blessings to your new chapter together.
We truly enjoyed working with Meagan and her team! They were prompt, wonderful and professional!!! They took care of everything, from top to bottom! We look forward to hiring them for our next event!!
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:
Thank you so much for your honest feedback. It was a pleasure and we look forward to many more events in the future with you all!
I cannot say enough about my positive experience with Pretty Pours! I needed 2 servers for my wife’s surprise party. Pretty Pours was detailed and immediate in their communication with me leading up to my event. The servers they provided, Liane and David, were outstanding. They each presented neat and professional and took care of all matters related to set up, warming, serving, clean up, and even packing up our leftovers. Our servers were well organized, really friendly, and self-directed which was a huge plus! I really didn’t have to do a thing except enjoy the party! Not sure we can ever pull off another ‘surprise’ event but for next big family gathering, would definitely hire again!
Went above and beyond
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:
Thank you so much for your review. We thank you for allowing us to be a part of your special day!
I needed waitstaff for my bridal shower, and Pretty Pours delivered it in less than 24 hours. Ms. N (as we called her) arrived 15 minutes early and was professional, helpful, and pleasant. I could enjoy my event and didn't have to worry about the little details.
We look forward to working with them again for our welcome party and farewell breakfast.
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:
Thank you so much for your honest feedback and we look forward to more events with you in the future.
The gentlemen that served was very nice and attentive, highly recommend
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:
Thank you so much for your kind words about our staff member. It was a pleasure to staff your event.
Very fair price. Kept me informed. Waitstaff was excellent. Would use them again
Megan and Team!!!
Words cannot express how professional, efficient, inventive, attention to detail, precise, knowledgable, focused and creative they were. They help us in a chaotic situation due to circumstances beyond our control. We were floored!!!
We will definitely use your services again and has adapted you as part of team for upcoming events. I wish they were here in Virginia.
Kudos to you and your team for a stellar service!
This was our first time using a bartender for a house party. Amber came on time, was super friendly and did an amazing job!!! All our guests loved the experience and we could enjoy time with them instead of making drinks!
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:
Bella, we are so pleased to hear everything went well with Amber and your event. We appreciate your honest feedback and looking forward to future events!
We had a tented dance party on a day with on and off storms; Amber and Janeen powered through set up and serving the event with confidence and ease. We had a keg, wine, and Aperol spritz, and they handled it all so seamlessly. When their shift was done, they were kind enough to prep 10 more Aperol spritz with the rest of the opened bottle to smooth the transition.
Thanks again to Meagan for handling the details and Amber and Janeen for top notch service!
Megan was hands down the best person we could have asked for at our event! She was a complete rockstar the entire time, and we’ll definitely be hiring this company again. Thank you so much for making our event so special!
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:
Highly appreciate your kind words and honest feedback. Looking forward to doing future events with you again soon. Thank you for entrusting us with your event Whitney.
Overall, I cannot recommend this bartender enough. Megan’s skills, professionalism, and friendly nature made her the perfect addition to our party. If you're looking for a bartender who can elevate your event and create an unforgettable experience for your guests, look no further. I guarantee you won't be disappointed!
Response from Celeste & Co. Mixology & Hospitality L.L.C.:

ABSOLUTELY recommend Meagan! She helped my make my baby shower a beautiful event by knowing how to place the food to make it its most appealing, helping getting all flatware, serving dishes, etc out, as well as clearing tables and cleaning up after almost 30 people, preventing a massive mess being left after the event ended. Would most definitely work with Pretty Pours in the future!
