This will be my go-to place from now on! I can’t imagine hosting another party unless I book them first! I was in full panic mode until Nicole from GLPP came to help serve. Wow! She was so calm, so kind, so helpful. She set up my food in such a gorgeous way and kept the area so clean and neat. She set up my balloons, flowers, drinks. And all of my guests just loved her!! She even made it into the photo album! I also appreciate that even though I contacted the company last minute, when they got a cancellation, they immediately contacted me. I honestly couldn’t have thrown this party and had it go as smoothly as it did without her!! 5 stars!!!
Waitstaff
GLPP was so great to work with. Our server was amazing. She was so knowledgeable and able to meet any request. Our guests had a great time because of her excellent service. We will definitely book them again!
Bartender
GLPP staff members always do a great job. We have used servers and bartenders for large house parties and they have always been punctual, pleasant, and great workers. It is easy to set up a request, get a quote, and get everything confirmed. We have used them for 5 years in a row and will continue to do so.

Shelly and Perez arrived on time and were a huge help in getting set up. They were friendly and professional. Having them allowed me to relax and enjoy our party. Interface with Great Lakes was very good, I received regular updates and they were quick to respond to my questions. Thank you!

Thank you, Sara
Our staff enjoyed working your party and had nothing but good things to say about you and your guests.
Please contact us directly for your next party or event, we would love to do the same for you again.
Thank you.

I worked with GLPP to staff a celebration of life and they were so courteous during this nice but difficult event. Jean and Perez were prompt, helpful, and kind throughout the day. They kept things running so smooth and I would recommend them to anyone
Waitstaff
We hired 6 servers but unfortunately 1 didn't show up (by no fault of GLPP). The 5 that were there did a fantastic job and picked up the slack though. Very professional. I would definitely hire them again.
Waitstaff
We hired 2 servers and a bartender for a party. After multiple reassurances and payment, I received a notice the day of the party that one of the original people assigned was double-booked and the company would try to find a replacement. The bartender arrived on time and was kind, but shared many personal problems with our guests, which I learned about after our event. One of be the servers arrived 30 minutes late and I had to hurry to show her where supplies were stored, etc. They finally found a third staff, a quite inexperienced second server, who showed up an hour after our party began. During the party, I was often interrupted by the staff with questions about location of supplies. Frustrating because the first person clearly did not listen and did not convey to the other server. As the party was winding down, I gave some trays for family members to pack some leftovers to take home. The staff then began to randomly distribute trays to other guests and also packed for themselves to take home. It was rather unprofessional and surprising. In the end, I did not get enough time to enjoy our guests because of the frequent interruptions and definitely overpaid for the service.

Nadia,
Hello,
We do apologize for your lack of satisfaction for your service and everything that happened during your event. This defiantly is not the norm for us. We are not about excuses, but we are about honesty.
We had 2 cancellations 30 min. before your event by very good, experienced servers.
Who you received was what we could come up with last min on a very busy Saturday for us.
We would love the opportunity to make this up to you with a discounted booking or an added free hospitality service in the future to show you how we really do things. If you are not interested in doing business with us again, we understand. Again, we feel terrible for how your service turned out. We did not get this feedback from the staff of any disappointment from you, so this is very new to us. We at least hope the grad was taken care of and had a decent graduation party experience.
Thank you for the feedback.
G.L.P.P
The bartenders from GLPP were timely, attentive, and went above and beyond! Would recommend them to all and will definitely be using them again next time we are in MI!
Bartender
Our servers were great. They worked for 6 hours outdoors in a hot day. Kept the food going, drinks refreshed and tables tidied. They pitched in making more salad when food ran low. All with good cheer and professional demeanor.
Waitstaff
Booked this vendor for a face painter for a town wide event. They reached out right away offering additional services, but we were only responsible for 1 piece. After booking them and paying, we recieved a notification that their face painter had the wrong date and they needed to cancel. After stating that was unacceptable, they reached out and did, in the last minutes, find a replacement painter. This young man showed up with a tote of paint and a few items. He did very well and the kids all seemed happy. He painted the entire night of the event and he even work around the rain and the weather. English is not his first language, so it took him a minute to process things.. but he did amazing overall!
Face Painter
Everyone was so helpful and kind. Great service and very helpful staff.
Bartender, Henna Tattoo Artist, Waitstaff
I was very pleased with the service! I can’t remember their names, but the 2 girls were very kind, sweet and very professional. They really went out of their way to make my day special and helped take the stress away. I will definitely work with you again and would love to request the 2 girls.

We had an amazing experience. I wish I could remember the names of all three staff members. They were simply the best. They could not have been better. They kept everything running smoothly and our guests loved them. Would hire them again in a minute.
Great waitstaff service for our party....made it a success all around.
We will definitely use GLPP for our party needs in the future.

Richard & Dawn,
Thank you both, our serving staff (Reshma & Asia) relayed back with us how much they both enjoyed working for you. They had nothing but good things to say about your guests as well. Please do not hesitate on requesting them or any others for your next party or event. We truly appreciate your business.
Thank you again

Shelly the server was excellent. Especially since she had to brave the cold with outside party. We couldn’t have done it without her. She worked buffet, help guest where needed, and cleaned everything up after all with a pleasant smile and demeanor.
The only negative was that the owner or administrator did not have the correct information after I texted several times confirming the time, including the extra hour I asked for. Leaves me to think the administrative staff seems to be lacking.
Waitstaff
We hosted an engagement party at a home with 16 guests and hiring 2 waitstaff to help us was by far the best decision we made in planning! The team arrived promptly and took care of everything, and I mean literally everything, even the things that we didn’t think of!! They made our night so much more relaxed and enjoyable, especially for me and my two other co hosts, but the fact that we hired additional hands to help was a definite wow factor for our small event. Will totally do it again! Thanks so much!
Waitstaff
I couldn't be any happier with the service that I received. I am all the way in Missouri and booked a surprise birthey for someone in Detroit. Mr. Brown stayed in contact with me all the way. The surprise was well received.
I feel they went above and beyond for me and made this a truly unforgettable experience. I highly recommend them for any party or event you may have. 5 stars plus!

Thank you Vena she was awesome friendly and great with the guests.

Our staff enjoyed working your event and also helping out the caterers. Congrats again and thank you for everything. Please keep us in mind for your next party or event.
G.L.P.P.
My decision to have a Henna Station at my Retirement Celebration was definitely a wise one. ALL of my guests who visited the station walked away EXTREMELY pleased. Reshma was very kind, patient and professional, Her designs were pretty, detailed and complemented everyone's style. Towards the end of the party, Reshma was even kind enough to patiently wait (to do my tattoo) while I thanked my guests for coming (as a group) and to even say some individual "good-byes". Days later, I was hearing from guests who were still amazed at how long their tattoos were lasting and how much prettier they were as they darkened. Thank you Reshma for being a part of my big day and helping making it that much more memorable! I'd definitely book with GLPP and Reshma again and HIGHLY recommend their services. Thank you!
Servers were professional, very polite and did a great job from start to end.

Our service provider was very nice and helped to make our family gathering fun. She was professional, and personable. I don’t thinks she stopped moving the whole time she was here. All of our guests appreciated having her there.
Everything was excellent, valet attendants were super nice, courteous and worked very hard. Great service with bartender as well.

Dani helped us at a party with serving and clean up. She came in and just knew what to do and took great care of all of the party guests! She was so nice and went above and beyond. I highly recommend GLPP!
Waitstaff
We had a poolside pig roast and they were personable and efficient bartenders
Bartender
The 2 ladies were superb! We were able to enjoy our event because of their hard work and dedication. Not only did they make our celebration day enjoyable but we were amazed the next morning how little we had to do. My highest praise to them both! Would definitely recommend them to everyone!
Waitstaff
Absolutely loved the service you provided. Had many people come to me and said how they loved the bar tending experience. It really made our event over the top. Thank you again.
Bartender
Bartender and servers were excellent! On time, went above and beyond
Bartender, Waitstaff
Danielle was on time, asked the right questions to get to know the house, stepped right in and took care things. She picked up outside, kept food trays filled, stored food away at the end and was very friendly. Would definitely recommend her for all your party needs.
Waitstaff
Waitstaff we’re very helpful flexible with anything we needed! Would highly reccomend
Waitstaff
Worked out ok, the Bartenders were reasonably accommodating. Overall happy with service. Four stars for showing up late by 20 minutes
Bartender
The best staff we ever had come to our home, they were very kind and respectful to everyone. Thank you for a great service

Arrived on time was very professional. Would definitely hire again.

The bar was one of the most popular things at our party. Vera and Danielle provided excellent service with a smile.

Vera exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond. She was not only a fantastic bartender, but she also helped clean and organize our food and drinks, and kitchen entirely. I would hire her again in a second!

The help we got from this company is very good, no need to be asking them to do anything, they acted accordingly, and never bothered us at all.
They let us enjoy the event at the fullest.
Bartender, Waitstaff
Vera was very friendly and professional. Kept the gusts happy.
Bartender
The wait staff was very attentive and hard working. Two thumbs up!
Waitstaff
Great company to work with and server was excellent.
Waitstaff
We have been working with the bar and waitstaff for a couple of weeks now and they have become like family! We couldn't have asked for a better team and company to partner with.
Bartender, Waitstaff
Showed up on time, did a great job, was attentive to the wedding party and brought us drinks to the head table, went above and beyond by helping with cleanup and even cake cutting.
Would recommend in a heartbeat. On your wedding day there are a lot of details you have to be on top of, not having to be on top these bartenders eased the burden.
Thank you Ladies. Wishing you luck in the future
Bartender
We will definitely be utilizing GLPP for all our events. They were on top of everything! They catered to our needs as well as the needs of our guests and chef. They fit in perfectly with our vibe and we are grateful!
Bartender, Waitstaff
They came through with short notice and did a great job
Waitstaff
Vera did a great job at the party. She was on time and came prepared with various gadgets to be able to prepare different drinks. She took care of all the guests and served them with drinks of choice including making some special drinks when they did not know what they should drink. She went over and beyond by also helping around the party ensuring no dirty glasses or trash was left over. We will surely work with GLPP again for future party needs.
Bartender
I give my highest compliments to Vera and Daniella, who were the party professionals at our son's graduation party this past Sunday. They were extremely hard-working, pleasant and true experts at how to handle the flow of a party. Thanks to their efforts, my wife and I could truly relax and enjoy this moment of celebration.
Our guests were impressed too. Several ask for the name of the company for their parties. I will not hesitate to give GLPP my highest recommendation to others.
Waitstaff
They were great. No complaints
Bartender, Waitstaff
All three staff members (2 servers, 1 bartender) provided outstanding support before, during and after the party. Thank you, thank you, thank you Vera, Terry and Danielle. ❤️
Bartender, Waitstaff
Vera (our bartender) was excellent! The entire waitstaff was super focused on helping our guests. Thank you.
Bartender, Waitstaff
The waitstaff from GLPP went above and beyond to make sure that my daughter's graduation party went off without a hitch and that I could enjoy the party and time with my guests without having to worry about clean up and restocking the food and bar. They were on time, courteous and overall a tremendous help. I would definitely book them again.
Waitstaff
Good day....I loved the team!!!!!!!!!
Waitstaff
Another amazing night. Servers were so professional. All of our guests had a great time and we were free to be with them all night because the servers were so on top of everything. We never had to restock a food tray or drink for a guest. It was seamless. This was our 4th time and we will use them again next year. Vera was the best as usual!
Bartender, Waitstaff
Verna was absolutely great!! All my guest came up to me during the event telling me how much they liked her! She was very nice and social. She did things she didn’t have to do such as throwing away plates and trash.
Bartender
Both the bartender and server were excellent
Bartender, Waitstaff
The server that came was excellent but the other one that was supposed to come never showed up and I didn’t hear from the company. I was lucky that the server who came was so good that she made up for the missing staff
Waitstaff
Bartender was good, the servers were not.
Bartender, Waitstaff
Vera was excellent! She made our party. The other two ladies were just as wonderful. Worth every dollar. I wish their were more guidelines on tipping. I wasn’t really sure what was appropriate.
Bartender, Waitstaff
Vera and the other bartender were awesome. Super friendly, professional and too great care of us.
Bartender
Staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. They were very easy to work with and the initial booking was simple.
Bartender, Waitstaff
Vera from Great Lakes Party Professionals was outstanding! She was above and beyond what I was expecting. She greeted people as they came to the party, served food, cleaned and was pleasant to the party goes. I would love to have her at my next event.
Waitstaff
Vera and BethAnn were amazing! They were so helpful throughout the entire evening. They mingled well with our guests and our guests loved having them around. Everyone was so well taken care of. They worked tirelessly all night and really allowed us to relax and enjoy our party. We’d have them back any time. Third time we’ve used GLPP and each time we’ve had different servers but every one has performed at a very high level. Well trained staff of good “people” people.
Bartender, Waitstaff
They showed up when they were suppose to. Followed the recipes for my craft cocktails to a T. Every one of my guest commented on how nice and entertaining they are.
Bartender, Waitstaff
Each and every one of our servers were lovely and polite. But they didn’t serve our guests on time! Dinner took about 20-30 longer to begin than we had scheduled and, as a result, we ran out of their time before we ended our meal. Our guests weren’t served dessert at all- even after we paid to extend their time- which might be okay, if this wasn’t our wedding reception. Our wedding cake went to waste, which makes me sad. But? While they were there it was definitely polite and friendly service.
Waitstaff
We hired waitstaff (Vera) to help us out at a house party, just cleaning things up, putting food out, checking food levels, etc. Vera was able to show up at the last minute (our original waitstaff had an emergency and could not make it - the owner called us and assured us that he'd find somebody), and she did an incredible job. She worked with our caterer to get all the food set up on the table and the leftovers on warm in the oven, alerted us when our alcohol supply was running low (instead of when it was gone), made sure the house was in good shape throughout, and made sure my wife and I ate in the midst of it all. Vera also cleaned up as the night went on, and then helped us after guests had left.
Overall, Vera was courteous and friendly to our guests and to us, did a great job helping us run the party, and made our lives a lot easier before and after the event itself. Would absolutely recommend!
Waitstaff
Wait staff came early, very helpful and freindly! will use them again, I was very happy with the service
Waitstaff
Blair and Shymah were amazing! They tended to my every need and made the party a great success! Very personable with everyone! Would recommend them for any occasion!
Waitstaff
Hi Debra was awesome! She had a great personality, and smile which everyone loved. I would love her at our next party.
Waitstaff
Debra was very attentive and on point at all times. Great demeanor and work ethic. Will certainly look forward to her services for future events.
Waitstaff
Debra and Blair were great and got raves from our guests. They arrived on time and immediately took charge of setting up food and did a great job with the arrangement. My 18 year old son even heard compliments about them from his friends. They did a great job with clean up at the end. Thanks to Blair and Debra, I was able to enjoy my son's party. I will ask for them next time I'm hosting a party!
Waitstaff
Vera was the life of the party and she was quick on the drinks! Blair was so sweet and was always finding some way to make hosting a party easier on my husband and me. Highly recommend both ladies!
Bartender, Waitstaff
GLPP staff made our wedding a great experience! They were very attentive to the needs of all of our guests and made sure my wife and I were eating and drinking throughout the night.

Waitstaff
Vera and Shayma we amazing! They were very helpful and friendly. All the guests were saying what a wonderful job they were doing. They went above and beyond to make sure we had great service. They both had such great personalities and worked very hard! I was truly impressed and happy with the service!!! We will use Great Lakes again for future events!!
Bartender, Waitstaff
They were absolutely perfect. Bartenders were super polite and nice and the wait staff helped clean up and load our cars. It was perfect and with out these people our day wouldn’t have been as good. I would 1000% recommend them to every one. It was worth it. Thank you to the whole team. If you need some one for your wedding call these people. They were always asking if me and my bride needed anything. Job well done guys. Thank you again.
Bartender, Waitstaff
Great follow up and very reasonably priced. Vera as a bartender was fabulous. My guests loved her and I would definitely request her for a future event. Very 😃
Bartender
This was my first time hiring staff for an event. The experience was amazing!
Kaitlyn was our server, and I was immediately impressed with her polite demeanor and initiative. She asked for details of what was expected of her throughout the evening, made suggestions and then got to work. She lightened the load on me, kept our buffet replenished all evening and did a splendid job of organizing and maintaining all the supplies. She knew where everything was at all times. In other words, she took over my role almost completely and I got to focus on our guests. What a novel idea!
Vera, the bartender, came in ready to make our party come to life. She came with all her own tools, did a great job keeping everyone's drinks replenished all evening and was great with the kiddos. She made fun mocktails for the kids and made them really feel like they were special. Vera also helped with cleanup and helped make the whole evening a success.
The entire process of working with Great Lakes Party Professionals was great. I had quick response times to any correspondence, the price was reasonable and the service exceptional. I would definitely recommend them friends and will keep them in mind myself for the future.
Bartender, Waitstaff
I was able to enjoy the party thanks to the waitstaff
Waitstaff
Vera was excellent. We will be using your service in the future.
Bartender
We could have not been more pleased with the service we received. They were professional, nice, and always and willing to help throughout our event. I would absolutely recommend them and use the company again.
Bartender, Waitstaff
We had two servers for our event. They knew exactly what to do and took amazing and detailed care of our guests. We never had to think about anything related to serving a cleanup. They were fantastic and we will definitely be using them again. We had multiple people ask us for their contact information after they saw how wonderful they were
Bartender
GLPP had great communication throughout the planning process and were able to answer all of my questions. We hired two bartenders for our wedding and they did an amazing job!! I had several guests tell me that they loved our bartenders. They were very friendly and connected with all of our guests.
Bartender
Katie,Ian and Grayson were excellent and very professional. I would highly recommend Great Lake s Party Pros!

Waitstaff
We hired 2 servers for my daughter's graduation party. Nicole and Kayla were pleasant, efficient and professional. They took command of my kitchen with very little direction and managed every small detail so I could mingle with the guests. They were great and I would highly recommend them without hesitation!
Waitstaff
The team was great! Very professional and friendly.
Bartender, Waitstaff
We had wonderful staff sent to help for our event. I will definitely book staff from Great Lakes Party Professionals again.

Response from Great Lakes Party Professionals:
Thank you so much
Our staff had a great time working for you.
The decision to have a bartender and waitstaff at my son's home grad party was the best decision of the event!!! Janelle (waitstaff) and Vera (bartender) were exceptional! So professional but yet very personable...they were on time, organized and even anticipated our needs as the evening progressed. I really cannot adequately express how grateful we were for their expertise!! They by far exceeded our expectations!!!! Working with GIG Salad was so easy and user friendly!!!
Bartender, Waitstaff
Thanks for the good service. I will recommend to my friends to use this service in the future.

We hired a GLPP bartender for a grad party last weekend (also used hired one three years ago for another grad party). They were amazing both times! Did everything we asked, took the initiative to do more, and continually asked what else (even more) they could do. Would definitely hire them again!
Bartender
They helped me out with the process of planning a bachelor party from beginning to end. The DJ and entertainment were great and everyone had an amazing time. I definitely recommend them for your next event.
Burlesque Entertainment, DJ
Everything went great. I had numerous calls and text the following day that this was one of the best bachelor parties some of the guys had ever been to. I would use this service again for sure.
Burlesque Entertainment
VERA CARILLO, once again, was beyond FANTASTIC!! She worked very well with the other bartenders and she was always making sure things were in order on the tables with the guests at the venue.I cannot thank you enough for sending her back to us for this venue!! She is a GEM!! We really like her and would like to adopt her! ;-)
Once again, thank you for sending her back to us!! We will be calling on her again!!
Thanks and God Bless You!

Thank you for providing us with an excellent, Professional bartender at the last minute. We would like her back for New Year's Eve!
You are highly recommended anytime for any event!!
Vera was beyond my expectations and should have received an additional tip on top of the tip jar tips! Will make that up to her when you send her back to us for 31st DECEMBER 2016!
Bartender
Vera was amazing! Our bar area was mostly set up when she arrived (right on time) and she offered to help in the kitchen. She was very pleasant to chat with and she was great with all our guests. Throughout the party she kept her eye on the garbage and took out as needed and even helped to refresh appetizers. Thanks for making our party great!
Bartender
This was the first time we have ever hired a server for a party. We didn't know what to expect. We were blown away with how excellent her service was. She was extremely attentive and all the guests truly enjoyed having her. At the same time she made the party flow so well and allowed us to concentrate on our guests. It was a fantastic service and one will be using more in the future.
Bartender
Usually we love who you've sent. The bartender was super nice, but it did get a little crazy. At one point she asked one of the guests to get ice and took a break at the busiest point. Like I said, it did get a little crazy - but I wish she would of told us as the hosts to help instead. When I noticed she wasn't there I hopped back and started serving. The server (Katelyn) was great.
Bartender
We hired a team of three servers for our wedding to help with bussing tables, pouring water/coffee, and moving food trays. What we received in service far surpassed what we expected. The servers were so courteous and sweet throughout the evening. They checked in on both me and my husband throughout the night, making sure we had drinks and making us a plate of appetizers since we were too busy to eat. When it was close to the end of their hired time and they had finished doing the tasks we had given them, they asked if there was anything else we needed help with. I felt like we were in great hands the entire evening and appreciated their positive attitudes and fun spirits (they even got in the photo booth!). I would not hesitate to hire this company again for an event. Highly recommended!
Professional and personable waitstaff

I am so pleased with the excellent service we received for our wedding. The servers were so wonderful and helpful. All our guests raved about their professionalism and attention to details. Janelle took good care of our wedding party, and myself the bride with such care. I recommend them to anyone!!
Waitstaff
Vicki, our bartender was fantastic. She set up everything, went above and beyond to help my party go smoothly, even going so far as to clear dishes and wash glasses. My only wish was that I had been provided a better way to get in contact with the company.
Bartender
Janelle and Vivienne are the best! They made it all seamless, especially when we had quests all arrive a bit late and they had to hold the dinner.
Waitstaff
Samantha was efficient, sweet, productive, and unobtrusive. She was a very hard worker--going above and beyond. She allowed us to have fun at our own event and not worry for a second. We will definitely hire her again.
Waitstaff
We held a murder mystery party at our home and hired 2 servers (Sam and Tonia) to work the party. They did a fabulous job, were very professional and friendly with the guests, and best of all, they took charge and made sure my husband and I didn't have to worry about anything and we could just enjoy the party with the guests. They both went above and beyond to make it a special night. I would hire them again in a second! We were extremely pleased!!!
Waitstaff
I am so thankful for Vicki, Tonya, Katie, Ava, My Bartender and one other lady who's name escapes me at the moment. These ladies truly helped to make my event awesome. They were very pleasant, timely and awesome to all of my guest! There service was superb. I could not have asked for more. I would totally recommend them and I will defiantly use their services again.
Bartender, Waitstaff
Highly recommended. I hired 3 wait staff & 2 bartenders. They all arrived on time & ready to work. They were amazing!!!!!! Very Professional, Courteous,Helpful, stayed on task & went over & Beyond the call of duty! The Ladies kept checking to see if there was more that they could do! I was MORE than satisfied with their service! I give HIGH recommendations to GLPP. I will definitely use them again in the future.
Bartender, Waitstaff
Your staff did a great job at our house party. Tonia and Maria did a great job serving and preparing food and everyone loved Vivian the bartender. They were nice, helpful, and hard working. We will definitely have them back again.
Bartender, Waitstaff
We couldn't have asked for better bartenders. They both had great personalities and they helped alot even out side of bartending. They attended to people out by the bon fire and also people who were outside of the barn. They even helped us with cleanup after the wedding. Thank you so much for everything.

The server you sent was professional, helpful, fun and didn't need much guidance. Thank you so much. Great experience.
Waitstaff
I was really impressed how professional they were and how helpful and thoughtful they were at all times. i was kind of worried considering it was a outdoors event but by the end of our event i told the servers i wanted them back for next year 4th. so thank you for providing me with excellent serice.
Waitstaff
The team was professional and friendly - Everyone commented on how engaging they were. No one wants to think they are working around robots and the bartender and two servers smiled and were conversant. We would highly recommend this group for party help in the future.
Bartender, Waitstaff
We had a party of 100+ and they lived up to their name! The entire staff was professional and friendly. All the guest were very happy all night and their security was on point!
Bartender, DJ, Waitstaff
The service that I received from Great Lakes Party Professionals was above and beyond greatness. This is my second time using GLPP for my events and definitely not the last. From the promptness and professionalism of the valet service to the alertness and attentiveness of the beautiful servers. Not to mention the cupcake/sushi model who blew the spectators away with a display that was very different and an eye catcher. Bear was very professional and on time with the employees from GLPP. I would refer GLPP to my friends and family and I look forward to using them in the future to take care of my party needs. Thank you. ELJ

Absolutely awful. Do not hire them! The Great Lakes Party Professional bartenders were extremely unprofessional (and that's putting it nicely...). Not only did they arrive late and leave early, they didn't know how to tap the kegs or think to put ice on the kegs once my guests tapped it for them - so they were serving warm beer for the first couple of hours until the Groom noticed and told the bartenders to get the ice we provided. Although, they first put up an argument with the Groom and the Groom's mother. We had asked them in advance to know how to operate a jockey box to serve mead and they had no idea - and didn't think to look it up - so my wedding guests used their own tools from their cars to hook it up for them. Once it was hooked up, they still didn't know the difference between the mead from the jockey box and the white wine from the bottle, and on top of that, they only served one of our red wine options even when people specifically asked for the other (and were pouring the wine into pint glasses instead of the wine glasses - it was like they were trying to be the WORST bartenders in the history of bartending). At some point throughout the night, they ended up giving full bottles of wine to anyone asking for a glass - which is not how a bartender should act while working at a wedding. Overall, exceedingly unprofessional - save yourself the frustration and do NOT hire Great Lakes Party Professionals.

The servers were on time, well groomed, paid attention to details, were plesent and attentive to our guests. We could not have been happier with Great lakes Party Professionals.
Waitstaff
We hired one server and one bartender for a wedding reception. They far exceeded my expectations. They were helpful, friendly, flexible, professional,funny, and sweet. I would recommend this service to anyone. I can't say enough good things about them.
Bartender, Waitstaff
Great Lakes Party Professionals was very easy to work with and got us bartenders even at the last minute. Both bartenders were very good. They were professional and made great drinks. For our party of 113 people, there was no lines almost the whole night!
Bartender
I was very happy with the bartender and waitress who worked our NYE party. Kay the bartender was very personable and didn't have any problem making the drinks that were requested. Andrea was the server and she was really sweet and very attentive to all the guests and went above and beyond clean up and being helpful with hosting while my husband and I enjoyed our party. My only complaint was that they were both late arriving. Bartender only by a few minutes and the server by almost 20 minutes. They both more than made up for that though with thw job they did and staying a little later than planned. I do understand that the weather and GPS address malfunctions played a factor I just didn't like having them not be there prior to guests arriving and having time to set up, etc. I felt rushed in giving them direction, showing them around because guests were already there. Even with that though we were pleased with our experience and would definitely go through GLPP again for our next party.

I usually do not write reviews, but the team they sent worked excellent together. The attention they gave my guest was non stop. Professional in every area. Thank you
Waitstaff
We hired 2 servers that were fabulous. They were professional and I never had to tell them what to do. They kept our backyard clean and the party ran smoothly.
Waitstaff
This is the second year we have used staff from Great Lakes Party Professionals to assist with our party. They are amazing -- on time, always doing more than we ask, and a complete pleasure to work with from start to finish. Highly recommend!
