About Your Bar Staff
Thoughtful bar service for meaningful moments
We’re Zack and Anthony, longtime friends and hospitality professionals who fell in love with the craft of service while working on Wharf Street in Portland, Maine. Over the years, we’ve poured countless drinks, hosted unforgettable nights, and learned firsthand what makes people feel comfortable, welcomed, and taken care of.
When it came time to create our own company, weddings felt like a natural extension of what we already loved most: bringing people together during moments that matter.
We believe great bar service is about more than what’s in the glass. It’s about reading the room, moving with the rhythm of the night, and creating an atmosphere where guests feel relaxed and celebrated.
Our background in high-volume bars, cocktail programs, and event service means we know how to keep things flowing — calmly, efficiently, and with a genuine smile. Whether it’s a quiet toast with family or a packed dance floor late into the night, we’re there to support the moment without ever stealing the spotlight.
Based in coastal Maine, we’re proud to work with local venues, planners, and vendors who care deeply about their craft. We stay intentionally hands-on, meaning the people you meet during planning are the same people showing up on your wedding day.
We’re fully licensed and insured, and we take our role seriously — so you don’t have to. From timelines and logistics to last-minute adjustments, we handle the details so you can stay present and enjoy your celebration.
Weddings are joyful, emotional, and fast-moving. Our goal is to be a steady presence in the middle of it all — friendly, professional, and prepared.
We’re honored to be part of such meaningful days and never lose sight of the trust couples place in us. Every event gets the same care and attention, whether it’s a backyard gathering or a full wedding weekend.
If you’re looking for a bar team that values hospitality, communication, and a genuinely good time, we’d love to be part of your celebration.
