Not only were they experienced, polite, extremely professional, but they jumped into tasks without even being asked. Helped with serving appetizers, to taking care of the bar, to making/passing out drinks, helped with the food buffet, cake/coffee serving and clean up. In other words, they were AMAZING!!! Would absolutely recommend for your next event!

I ended up finding my own cocktail recipes and got fancy signs framed myself but I'm glad she suggested doing signature cocktails because they were a total hit! Both bartenders were extremely friendly, fun, and courteous. They came early to make 2 big batches of our signature drinks to have on hand. They were high energy, dancing behind the bar to the dj's music the entire night! Everyone loved their contagious energy! Whenever I walked by they offered me drinks immediately and even memorized what my mother in law ordered so whenever she came back they had her drink ready for her to hand out! Absolutely exceeded expectations!

After a bit of internet sleuthing, I found Laura of Voyaging Alchemist and knew it was going to be a great fit. Laura was great to work with, from a first, fast, and friendly reply to my initial email, to her easy to understand pricing, to the final, absolutely adorable cocktail creations! I cannot tell you how much I giggled looking at grown up Gen-Xers and baby boomers slurping cocktails thru whirling silly straws with pure joy in their eyes. Who knew time travel was actually possible?! Apparently the Voyaging Alchemist knew because we were all transported back to childhood one sip at a time. Thanks Laura!!

My husband and I hired Chicago movers and shakers for our wedding this last past July. When we…read moreoriginally hired josh last summer in August we were really excited. He is personable, seemed organized and he was very quick to respond. So we hired him and continued to plan our wedding without thinking about it twice. Now, I know that June, July and August is the busiest time of the year for anybody in the wedding business and I know that this is Josh's side job. Nevertheless, he was practically unreadable the month before my wedding. I tried calling him the day of my wedding and he did not even respond or call me back. I went into the church not knowing if I had a dj or not. When I got to my venue josh had just arrived and was setting up. He was supposed to arrive two hours ahead of time and he barely made it an hour before. I had also hired him to play a slideshow that my mother spent hours putting together of my husband and I in addition to a black and white movie. We had previously discussed which wall it would go on. I walk into the space and the projector was set up on the wrong wall and it was so close to the wall that we couldn't even see the beautiful slide show that my mother put together clearly. It was heartbreaking. As far as the actual music part, he played good song choices. However, he played them all the way to the end, no dj skills to transition from one song to the other. Honestly, I could have put on Spotify or Pandora and it would have been the same. I had to also tell him when to play the father daughter dance and had to signal him when to stop the song so that we could play the first dance song. All in all it was not a good experience. I'm a big Yelp and review person and I am not quite sure how he got so many good reviews but he definitely dropped the ball at my wedding big time. His services left a lot to be desired from.

Never one to leave a review but felt compelled to do so. We…read morewere really disappointed with our experience at wooden paddle. After being seated, we waited about 15 minutes without anyone acknowledging us or even bringing us water. During those 15 minutes, another party was seated at the table next to us. Almost immediately, a waitress came over with waters for them. She noticed that we didn't have any and told us, "I'll be right back with some waters for you." Instead, she returned without the waters and proceeded to take the neighboring table's order, even though we had been seated about 15 minutes before they arrived. At that point, it was clear we weren't being attended to, so we got up and left. We understand that restaurants can get busy, but simply being acknowledged and treated in the order we arrived would have made a big difference. Unfortunately, this experience left us feeling overlooked, and we won't be returning
