With over five years of experience in the bar/restaurant industry and years of doing parties, I am the BEST choice for your next private party/gathering. I’ve been bartending private parties at homes and apartments for over 4 years.
Nothing makes me happier than seeing a client who really enjoyed their party because they had one less stress of figuring out then drinks for their guests! I enjoy making people's special day, or event "special and memorable!"
Whether it’s a small gathering or a celebration, let me bartend your next party!
*Please note: I do not teach classes or have a cocktail making kits. Also, I only do parties of 60 people or smaller!*
Omg! Ryan was amazing. He poured all my drinks with a great smile.He did a wonderful job setting up and cleaning up.My guest loved him and wanted him to stay for a couple of more hours which he had no problem doing.I would definitely recommend Ryan for your next party.I live in N.J.and he traveled all the way from New York by train on a hot summer day.Ryan...Thank you so much ..you were wonderful
I used Ryan's bartending services for my 40th birthday party last night. From my initial contact with him through the end of the party he was a true professional. He responded to me immediately, we were in constant communication for weeks leading up to the event. I sent him a list of a dozen specific drinks I wanted for the party and he served them all up perfectly. He arrived on time, prepped everything (condiments, garnishes, sugar/salt rimmer, pourers, spill mats, etc.), and hit the ground running as all 30+ guests bombarded him with drink requests over four hours (I thought it would be mostly wine and beer but with my printed drink list, everyone was ordering cocktails all night!).
He came dressed extremely well, was super friendly and actually added to the party atmosphere by chatting with the guests appropriately. He stayed to clean up and didn't leave until I actually asked him to (wasn't in a rush despite the foot of snow expected overnight). He drove 45 minutes each way too.
I tipped him well because I really felt like I underpaid for such an excellent job. I hope this review helps him book future gigs because he is the type of guy you root for to succeed. A solid stand-up young man. Thanks Ryan!!! Hopefully I can use him again one day as it was super convenient to have him there, well worth it.

You can expect from me to be on time, and cater to your needs in a timely and professional matter. You provide the alcohol, and set up (unless otherwise discussed in which I can bring my own materials) and I take care of the rest . Anything from: set up, to break down, to re stocking, refilling, and opening and discarding of bottles, cans or glasses. I am reasonably priced and not looking to nickel and dime you. You can rest easily knowing that I will meet with you prior to go over specifics about your party or occasion, and know that I will show up an hour to a half hour (depending on what works best for the client) to set up and get the area ready. You can also rest assured knowing that the clean up from the drinks will not be left for you, I will clean up all the alcohol and dispose of what is needed, and leave no mess, so that you can relax after your special day or evening!
I have been working in the restaurant/catering/events industry for the last 5+ years and decided to go out on my own and make my own hours and do my own thing on the side. For the last four years I’ve bartended house/apartment parties and gatherings throughout the NJ/NY area. I throughly enjoy this and believe that every small event should have their own bartender so you do not have to worry about drinks for your guests. I am TIPS certified and know the NY/NJ liquor laws.
I am friendly, outgoing, professional, respectable, and courteous to you and your guests. I look forward to working with you on your next event, and have references available upon request!
