Lawrence was amazing, so professional and service is top notch! I wont use anyone else going forward.
Thank you Lawrence for providing such an amazing experience to all of our guest at our baby shower!! My family has booked him for multiple events and we definitely plan on keeping that going for ourselves. Never again are we serving our own drinks at our own events.
Larry came out for our Roaring 20's New Year's Eve party. He was GREAT!!! I wanted to write this much much sooner but with having a bad hangover afterwards and then COVID, I didn't get a chance. Sorry Larry! But everyone said he was great and asked for him to come back. He was very professional, had everything he needed. He was super friendly and made amazing drinks. That part tho...the drinks, they were so good and strong that I didn't even realize I was tipsy before all the guests arrived lol. Yeah, my fault tho!! Lol!! I will definitely have his company back again for all my big parties and will recommend him to everyone I know!!! Thanks again!!!
I have booked his services 3 times and all 3 times were exceptional. Needless to say I pre-booked again for next year. My guest love his drinks and amazing service. Thank you for being a constant fixture at all our functions.
Response from Martini Express:
What separates privilege from entitlement is gratitude. I sincerely thank you for the privilege to serve you, your family and friends Miss Sheila.
If I could sum up a word for Lawrence it would be professional. He arrived a few hours before the event, brought everything needed aside from alcohol and made my life easier. Lawrence sends you a list of recommended alcohol depending on amount of guest arriving and he was pretty spot on. Thank you so much for everything Lawrence, you will be my forever bartender sir.
Response from Martini Express:
I can no other answer make, but, thanks, and thanks, and ever thanks...
Laurence is as good as it gets when it comes to professional mobile bartending! He was very responsive throughout planning with any questions I had. He also guided me on what to buy and how much and was very accommodating. His set up looked so good and service was amazing day of! Everyone loved him and complimented. I would definitely use him again for future events and recommend him. Thanks Laurence for helping make my 30th a memorable event!
I cannot thank Lawrence/ Martini Express for proving top notch service at our wedding! We received so many compliments on his service through out the night. He was on top of everything from the first email he sent outlying what we needed to do for the wedding, to customizing our menu to our friends and families likes to pouring amazing drinks even when I forgot a few things! My new favorite shot... Washington Apple shots with Tennessee honey! Yummy! We will defiantly be using them again! Thank you for helping to make our day special!
We hired Lawrence to bartend our 10 year wedding anniversary. He provided us with a list of supplies and liquor needed and he did all of the rest. He picked up and stored the ice for our event which was a stress reliever. He made very good cocktails for our guests! His setup is very professional also. I will hire him again.
Our experience with Martini Express was very impressive. The party was fantastic and I have received many compliments on the bartending service. The drinks are perfectly mixed, they create a good atmosphere. They know what they are doing. They are friendly and kind. I will definitely rehire them for any of our events and I know I have already recommend Ed to my friends and family.
It was a pleasure having Lawrence bartend at our wedding! He was friendly from the first email I sent regarding his services and was so kind and prompt throughout the whole experience. Highly recommend, decently priced, especially for the service you receive!
Lawrence was absolutely wonderful!!! He really outdid himself, but maybe that is just natural for him. He was quick, efficient and pleasant with the guests! He never said he can’t make a drink. He worked with what we had. We can’t wait to work with him again!!! Thank you so much!!!!!!!
We wanted to use a bartender for my son’s birthday party and we were not disappointed in picking Lawrence. He provided top notch customer service and made the best drinks. He provides a list of alcohols to purchase and all you need to do is follow that and you’re pretty much all set. I would recommend purchasing the alcohol at Costco and go with the Kirkland brand.
Lawrence was incredible! He was so friendly and sweet! His drink were delicious and perfectly made. He also made 5 different shots that he offered our guests and they were a hit. My parents host a lot of different events at their home and we will definitely be using Lawrence again.
Martini express is definitely the most professional bartenders service I have ever seen ! Lawrence is so nice and professional. Absolutely loved him ! We will be definitely using him for future !
Pantea
Definitely elevated our event and had amazing service and performance!! Would definitely use again!! Very professional and friendly
We hired Lawrence for my son's wedding in September 2018. Lawrence was dependable and very easy to work with, he gave me valuable information on quantities to purchase etc. All my guests were very satisfied with his service and set up for the bar area.
Lawrence was an absolutely amazing addition to my 21st birthday party!!!! He came early to introduce himself to everyone and begin setting up. His set up was great, he even brought his own led lights which was super cool. Most importantly, his drinks were AMAZINGGGG!! He can literally make any drink you can think of. I will definitely be calling him for any future events and strongly encourage everyone to hire Lawrence for your event! You’ll love him!!
Lawrence bartended my 21st birthday party and he was great. I asked for a detailed list on the items I may need and he personalized a list based on how many people and how much it serves. He was great and the drinks were delicious! 10/10 recommend
Lawrence was such a pleasure and great addition to my party! From the very first email up until the very last hour of the actual party Lawrence has exceeded all my expectations and goes above and beyond! Very responsive, very professional, answers all questions and concerns, and provides you with everything you need to make your party a success.
Day of the party: Lawrence shows up hours early just to set everything up...his set up, equipment and bar is great! It’s clean, organized & professional and he maintains a great attitude all night!! Last but not least, his drinks are GREAT! some of the best tasting drinks I’ve had. My family and friends were so impressed by him and I will definitely be hiring him again in the future!
This was my first time hiring a bartender and it was the best service ever. My family and friends were impressed.
The ambience was amazing and he provided us with exceptional service.
Lawrence is the best bartender I have ever met, hands down. He has an extensive knowledge of drinks and makes delicious beverages! He takes care of all your drink needs from coke and water to mixed drinks and shots! 15/10 would
Recommend again and I know a lot of my guests took his card to use him too. EVERYONE loved him.
We called Martini Express/Lawrence to tend bar for my wife's 50th birthday and the service was TOP NOTCH! Lawrence was well prepared, he came 2 hours before the event to set up and be ready to go before guests arrived. His attention to detail was incredible from his bar set up to the lighting he provided to the drinks he served! The bar set up looked like it belonged in a high end restaurant or club. At the end of the event, his clean up was excellent, we had nothing to take care of except disposing of some empty bottles. Throughout the night, my wife and I got so many compliments and rave reviews about Lawrence and how awesome he was. The party was a huge success and Martini Express was definitely one of the reason why. We highly recommend Martini Express, you won't be disappointed.
Outstanding service provided for a wedding event!! Great communication, prompt set-up and truly professional service. Guests were very satisfied with the service they received! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! THANKS AGAIN!!!
The event went great! Bartender was friendly, professional and clean. Came early to the party and made sure to set his equipment up before the guests arrived. Everyone loved it! Excellent people and company, will defiantly use again.
We hired Lawrence for a backyard party for my husband's 40th birthday. He was stellar! From the moment I contacted him, communication was consistent and clear. He provided a suggested list of what to buy (was open to any modifications) and was there to answer any questions. On the day of the event, he sent a heads-up when he would arrive, and arrived right on time, which was a couple hours early to properly and carefully set up! His set-up is awesome. One thing: make sure you have a good spot for him and enough room -- he'll work with you, I'm sure. He made multiple trips to where we stored the supplies, displayed everything nicely, and had lights which made for such a great night setting. Lawrence was professional, knowledgeable, personable, but not intrusive -- just the perfect mix! His drinks were great and he was able to easily work with larger bottles so it saved us money on alcohol. He left everything clean and orderly and after all those drinks, I didn't have to really do anything. What a treat! Just a great experience. Thank you, Lawrence! We're keeping your number on hand for more parties in the future.
Everything was perfect, Lawrence did an excellent job bar tending my event. He was very professional and his set up looked great!
Lawrence at Martini Express was very helpful and responded very quickly to e-mails. He helped create a specialty drinks as well as a tailored shopping list for our party. It was also very convenient that he had the capability to store ice and have one of the bar tenders pass out drinks for guests who were seated. He and his team also provided great service to the guests. I would absolutely use him again.
Larry from Martini Express, was who I chose to be the bartender at our Celebration of Life for my husband who recently passed away. Larry arrived on time, set up and all who attended thought he was the best. Should my family need a bartender in the future, we would not consider anyone but Martini Express and of course the great Larry. Thank you so much for making our day with your skill and personality.
Lawrence was one of the best bartenders I have ever encountered he showed great professionalism. he provided everything that we asked for he was. If anyone is ever looking for a bartender I recommend this one right here
Lawrence was a fantastic bartender! He was friendly & professional. His bar was absolutely beautiful & he even provided lights for the guests. He made special drinks that were focused on our 50’s theme party, & even made virgin drinks for the kids! I wouldn’t recommend anyone else!
Lawrence is 5 star service. So professional and courteous. Best customer service and welcoming demeanor. Great prices and service!
I hired Martini Express for my mom's 50th birthday. It was a 50s theme. The bartender Lawrence was absolutely perfect. He was so professional and cool. Not only did he make signature drinks according to the theme he made a drink named after my mom. He also decorated the bar according to the theme. My family and friends loved him. He made my mom's party most memorable and enjoyable.
Lawerence was amazing! He was organized and ready to go for our NYE party. He was able to accommodate everyone's drink wish with enthusiasm and skill. So appreciative of his assistance on making 2018 great!
We highly recommend Martini Express.
Lawrence is a consummate professional and you will not be disappointed. Our event was a birthday cocktail party with about 50 guests. Lawrence arrived hours before our event began to set up his bar and lighting. His presentation is first class. We were very impressed, and our guests were delighted by the setup. We had a list of literary-themed custom cocktails we wanted to serve. Lawrence nailed all of our drinks and also made a number of his own creative concoctions for our guests, which was great. Most importantly, Lawrence was very friendly, personable and engaging. He's a pro, and he exceeded our expectations in every way. Highly recommended.
Lawrence is a great bartender. On-time with a great setup. Made our party much more fun and we'll use him again.
Lawrence was the perfect touch to elevate our Christmas Cocktail Party. Our feedback from our guests regarding his professionalism and eye-catching setup was great! Lawrence was helpful from the very beginning making an easy shopping list of what alcohols were needed. Overall we are more than satisfied of the services Lawrence provided. Drinks were fun, tasted great & were garnished perfectly (even sprites for the kiddos were garnished with a cherry). Will definitely be booking again!
Lawrence was absolutely amazing and we had the BEST holiday work party ever due to his customer service and professionalism! He provided a detailed itemization of his services and a list of items that we needed to shop for. Lawrence answered all my questions and calls in a timely manner and arrived 2 1/2 hours before the party started to set everything up. The bar was stunning with the lights and full setup. He provided the ice and garnishes - limes, lemons, oranges, cherries, olives, mint and only charged the actual cost. Lawrence made it very easy to host a wonderful holiday party and our employees had the best time! I was so happy that Lawrence took care of everything for us and he will definitely be our bartender next year!
Martini express and Lawrence our bar tender are going to be in all of our events from now on . He arrived early had evrything ready to go for our guest very, very professional great personality . All of our guest were blown away by his service . He really exceeded our expectations
I could go on with so many great things.

THANKS FOR GETTING COREY, COCKTAIL SERVER FOR OUR EVENT ON A LAST MINUTE NOTICE!!! WHAT A GREAT TEAM GIVING MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS GREAT SERVICE---Added CLASS TO THE EVENT!!!
I contacted Lawrence two weeks prior to my wife's graduation. He provided me with a list of potential beverages I could get with the prices. This was vital as I honestly would not have known where to start. Her family is from the central valley and told us what an amazing party we had, the professionalism of Lawrence, and how they can't wait to the one!!
We had the pleasure of having Martini Express come and bartend our engagement party last night. Lawrence was the best from my booking process to the end of the night. His drinks were so good and the setup he has was so fabulous. It was 5 star service all the way around. He had no problem helping me anytime of the day or evening when I had questions. Definitely a vender you should book for your events. Thanks Lawrence for making our event great.
His bar set up is awesome. He displays your alcohol with bright colorful lights that make your event look like you are at a club. He showed up early, set up and was ready to go before my first guest arrived. I didn't have to worry about anything. Thank you Lawrence!
I hired Lawrence for my husbands 40th Birthday and he was a GREAT addition to our party. His setup was awesome with LED lighting and the bottles nicely displayed. I love that he brings the ice and garnishes, so you don't have to worry about running around. If you need a bartender i would highly recommend him! Great service, great setup and most of all great drinks.
This is the 4th party I have been at with Martini Express, but the first I have hosted using Lawrence. He is a great addition to a party. Prompt : 2 hours before start. Clean: Very clean and organized bar 3: Professional: There to serve, made great drinks, had a nicely lit bar and everyone loved him. Committed: We even had a bit of rain and he worked right through it. Looking forward to hiring Martini Express again.
We hired Martini Express for a Halloween costume party. Without asking, Lawrence offered to dress up. He came as a vampire, complete with a top hat and fangs, which fit in nicely with our theme. He brought along a life sized zombie-butler that everyone loved. The setup is very professional and elegant. Complete with studio type lights and LEDs to light up the liquor bottles. Very well prepared with shakers, blenders and all the trimmings. Lawrence was a real pro and we will definitely be using his services again in the future.
Lawrence has tended bar for me on several occasions. He's always been on time and provided awesome service. My guests love him and his drinks. We will continue to use Lawrence many times in the future. I highly recommend him.
Larry has done my wedding and three parties for me and your mistake would be NOT hiring him!
Professional, on time and has a great support staff.
VERY PROFESSIONAL presentation while they are there doing their work.
Never any issues and never any concerns - he is prepared for everything.
If you are having a party or special occasion you want him to take care of this for you. You wont do better than these folks!

All of our bartenders are TIPS certified.
Note:
Contrary to popular belief, there is no such thing as a “licensed bartender”. Companies are ABC licensed, not bartenders. Bartenders are certified through an alcohol awareness course and receive a certification number. If a bartender says they are licensed, just ask to see their ABC liquor license. Type 47 or 48 (full liquor license) or a Type 41 or 42 (beer & wine only license). These licenses are typically held by restaurants, hotels or licensed caterers not bartenders.
Yes. A non-licensed caterer or event staffing company can serve alcohol provided to them by the host.
