A Little Bit About Myself

My name is Eli and I am the owner and primary bartender of Open Bar Events. I have almost 10 years of experience working in cocktails bars and I love to bring the same craft energy and attention to detail to my remote events. This means we will always be using hand squeezed juices, homemade syrups/purees, and fresh ingredients for every drink. I look forward to catering my services for you to provide the perfect beverage experience for your event!

We had an amazing experience with Open Bar Events and I would love to continue to work with them for my future events! I was hosting a private party in my home for about 60 people. From start to finish, Eli was very professional, friendly, and intentive on what I wanted for my event. The cocktails were delicious, very beautifully presentated, and everyone couldn't stop talking about them and the service. In addition he was very flexible with us when we were faced with some weather related changes...

Eli was the perfect bartender for my husband’s 40th birthday party! His bar setup is great, drinks were excellent, and he was organized throughout the entire process! Will definitely be reaching out again for our next party.

Eli was just superb!! After we talked about the vision for my event, he came up with really creative cocktails for the menu that were all hits with my guests! He was wildly entertaining while on the job & overall was quite possibly the highlight of the party!!! Great attitude. Hard worker. Hire him immediately!!

Eli was a fantastic presence for us at two very important events at our home. On both occasions, he showed up well before he was needed, prepared, extensively, made distinctive offerings for our guests, treated everyone with respect I just contributed in so many ways to making the time special. We have been looking for excuses to have another event just so that we can bring him back!
