We hired Jonathan to make and serve drinks at my 50th birthday party. He communicated with me regularly leading up to the event so that everything was organised and in order on the night, my guests raved about the cocktails and he was punctual and friendly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

Evonny did a fantastic job waitressing at my party. She arrived early and did a beautiful job of setting up and styling the cheese, meat and fruit platters. She tidied up as she went and took the initiative to do things I hadn’t even asked for but which really helped out on the day. Will definitely hire Evonny again. Thanks for making my day so much easier!
