    Gosh guys not sure how to convince you they are worth your financial and emotional investment without being long winded. We hired them for our Son’s rehearsal dinner. The idea was mine, the necessity was not agreed upon by all the men on the planning board…because men. “Why cant we just put a bunch of beer in coolers and save that cost?”🙄 This mother/daughter duo don't “just open and serve you the alcohol you buy”. They elevate your evening while providing a service to your guests. They are an extension of you, making sure your guests are catered to, talked to, taken care of and they don't just stay behind the bar. If they saw someone near empty they walked over and offered another. They gave encouragement, they smiled non-stop and they were gracious when guests were grabbing beer from the coolers while they were trying to set up before they were even supposed to be open🙄 Just budget for this its what every event needs.

    Lisa and her daughter brought The Hitching Post out to our event and it was a huge hit. The bar setup is beautiful — it really dressed up the space — and the guests loved it. They were professional, easy to work with, and everything ran smoothly. Highly recommend if you want a mobile bar that adds something special to your event.

    I have been using The Hitching Post this season at my farm and not only do I love this adorable business and its owner, but my customers do too! I highly recommend them for any party or event. Their drinks are handcrafted and some of the best I’ve ever had!

    The Hitching Post beverage cart was an absolute highlight at our school spring festival! From start to finish, they were fantastic. They were professional, organized, and incredibly easy to coordinate with. They brought such a fun and creative touch to the event, and the setup itself was beautiful. Most importantly, the drinks were delicious and such a hit with both kids and adults! You can really tell they care about quality and the overall experience. We couldn’t have asked for a better partner for our event and can’t wait to work with them again. Highly recommend!

    Christie, we had the absolute BEST time at Flutter Fest! It was so perfectly laid out and planned by YOU and the rest of the SMM Team. We were just part of your vision! 🦋. Thank you for having us and we can't wait to work with you again in October! 🎃
