I had a very last minute desire to have someone help out for my New Year's Eve party after navigating my birthday alone and not getting to enjoy it much. There's always so much to do when you're hosting! We've all been there, the night flies by and you barely spoke to any guests. Our local moms group recommended Paul. Though my event was casual, you'd never know that. Paul prepped beforehand and came prepared as though I was hosting a gala and carried that energy the whole evening with all of my guests. Literally breaking out the silver platter to serve drinks and assist with whatever was needed. Each guest who reached out post the event, thanked me for a great night and mentioned Paul in their messages. If you want to be able to enjoy your own event and connect with your guests, hire Paul. You will be so grateful that you did! I've led large scale events for work for a very long time and Paul can make any event, casual to gala level fancy, absolutely shine! He is kind, respectful, helpful, anticipates needs ahead of time, organized, roll up your sleeves and get in there type of support any AND every event planner needs. read more

Five stars all across the board. read more

I've been to several parties where Paul was manning the bar and I have always wanted to work with him because he's so great.

I have no doubt that Paul is capable of staffing and bartending, but unfortunately anything beyond that is a risk and detriment that I feel compelled to share due to how traumatizing it was for me. Admittedly, the issue is partly to blame in taking him on as a referral from a friend who I now have trust issues with. i painstakingly planned every detail of my wedding for roughly 65 people (around 50 actually attended) in the last 7 months with an urgency around my mothers cancer diagnosis. I had a walk through with Paul and due to him rushing through, barely asking questions or details and not taking a single note, I should've had an inkling but due to the great rec and his confidence/assurance, I let it go. I wrote out a 5 page checklist of details to go with each labeled box on what each box contained, where everything should go, vendor details, phone numbers to call, etc Paul did not read a single thing. It was obvious when I arrived at my reception and saw barely anything was done correctly. Beyond that, he missed the ceremony where we needed him to MC/ guide guests, set up reserved seating, etc. Beyond even that a number of my personal belongings (aka all of the decor I bought or made) was damaged. Beyond that, and this is the part I cannot understand, he didn't speak to me or apologize once. He actually had the audacity to come to us at the end and ask for more money due to extra hours worked. Paul did not do anything beyond staffing. He did not turn on our audio guestbook and therefore we have barely any messages from my wedding. He did not use the tape on our sign which had a post it with instructions so that when the wind blew, the sign fell directly off the easel. He didn't even bother to pick up the giant acrylic letters and place them back with my belongings so that I could fix it as a keepsake. He even went as far as removing the custom made labeled wraps of each shawl that was nicely folded and tossed them onto a cocktail table...for people to know to grab on their own? We had to ask him to put them back on but who can't read in big bold letters the couples name and a note on them? He didn't set up the dessert table. He didn't MC anything except 1 table for dinner! He didn't leave the vendor favors on their table or let them know they have a space for their things and to eat and when our self-built favor wall fell and broke (due to wind), all of the hand-poured, hand-labeled, hand-shrink wrapped bottles (all by me) smashed. if he had bothered to read the guide, it explicitly stated not to place those on the wall since vendors would not assume to check. it breaks my heart that the vendors who actually did their job that i didn't have a chance to chat with, left with nothing. I was in such a shock/panic attack barely able to process how horrendous it was, but what I cannot fathom is the lack of an acknowledgment or even an apology to me. He admitted to my MOH he was in way over his head and continued to laugh things off and run around doing god knows what all night. I tried to remain focused on my breathing and my actual wedding and therefore did not confront him but how do you go as far as asking for more money, claiming you did beyond your job when you absolutely utterly failed. He/his staff didn't take over from the caterers in serving food as planned or serve drinks the whole night but i hear from guests that their plates were taken away multiple times because the staff kept grabbing plates full of food to clean. I mean...I'm just shocked. He ruined my wedding, hè didnt read the notes or the job description in his invoice, he stole my money and is responsible for the damage of my property where multiple things are missing or misplaced. I wish I never hired him. Please do not consider hiring him for anything beyond basic tasks. read more

I can not say enough good things about Paul. he was just what we needed. He is reliable, professional, kind, very capable... We hired him to assist in a 3day party for 27 people. He bartended and cleaned. He's very experienced so it felt like we had two people helping us instead of one. Each guest sang Paul's praises. He was part of the family by the end of our weekend. read more

I was lucky enough to find Paul through Yelp as I was trying to find a bartender to help out for a bachelorette party at a private residence in Indian Wells. His 5 star reviews and what people had to say about Paul caught my attention and I was so happy to be able to book him for the event. Paul is an AMAZING bartender, but he is so much more than that. He turned a day by the pool into a truly unique and special experience. Our group of 9 girls was BLOWN AWAY by his exceptional service and friendly demeanor. He has an incredible power of observation and was able to anticipate and fulfill our needs before we even knew we needed something! Even before the day of the event, Paul was incredibly helpful giving me a specific shopping list for everything we would need for the bar, as well as recommendations for restaurants and hikes in the area. The day of, he was incredibly professional. He got there early to set up and brought many of his own items to create a cool bar area. He helped set up and serve a catered lunch that I had ordered and he kept the drinks coming (all the while making sure we were all well hydrated!) It's been 2 weeks since the event and our group is still talking about him. I can't recommend Paul enough for any event you are hosting!!! read more

Paul helped plan and execute a large party for us. To say Paul was fantastic is an understatement! His work ethic, skills and tireless energy were so helpful. Everyone at the party loved him and commented to me how wonderful he is at his job. He helped organize and facilitate every layer of the party. Paul was somehow everywhere at once. Trash wasn't piling up, people had drinks, planned activities were started and facilitated well, food roll out was smooth, the food choices he guided us to were delicious, music was going, etc. Paul went the extra mile too - packing up stuff for guests and moving a borrowed ping pong table back to the house of origin. We will definitely use him again! He was even able to repair some stuff at the house (he has a truck full of tools and is handy). Overall, A+ read more
