You’ve been dreaming of this day for a long time, crafting the perfect experience in your mind. The dress. The flowers. The ring. And, of course, the food. Each celebration is an opportunity for us to help couples bring their unique vision to life.

Hoffman House Catering was absolutely amazing! Their communication style was wonderful - they were so attentive and responsive throughout the entire process. The quality of their work and the value they provided was unbeatable. The food was absolutely amazing, and we got several comments from our guests that they would love to use Hoffman House for their own events in the future. The staff was also incredibly polite and caring, even making plates for my wife and I and bringing them right to our table. Hoffman House truly contributed to making our special day perfect, and we can't recommend them highly enough!

Late to the Lake was an outstanding catering choice for our wedding. From the very first interaction, their team was attentive, kind, thoughtful, and insightful in helping us plan the perfect menu. The quality of their work was simply amazing - the food was artistry on a plate, with flavors that were both outstanding in taste and incredible value.

Bartender 608 Intoxicologists & Cocktail Caterers, LLC. 

5.0

  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Dakota, IL

Since 1995, China Moon has bartended for dive bars, house parties, underground events, celebrity bashes, and fine dining establishments in NYC and the Midwest. She’s an old soul with a heart for gardening, reading, music, dancing, animals, and, when it’s safe again, putting her passport back in the rotation. She holds a degree in Hotel & Restaurant business management, was the Private Dining & Event Manager at The Edgewater Hotel from 2016-to 2018, and is a member of the Beta Beta Psi chapter of Phi Theta Kappa. China Moon is an eager reader (and dotes on Stephen King and Dean Koontz novels.) She loves aged Brugal Rum on the rocks with lime.

As a wedding venue, we have been fortunate enough to see most, if not all, of the mobile bartending service companies in the Madison area. Bartender608, China Moon (owner) and her staff are the best to work with. They are very responsive to us, as a hosting venue, and their clients who are typically the bride and groom. China and her team arrive on time, or early, have a very professional set up and always dress the part. Bartender608’s service is always efficient regardless of the size of your group. If we were hosting our own wedding or party, Bartender608 would be an easy and immediate Yes Please!

You can even have your own roasting station at your event with TerraFlame Fire Bowls available through Tuck-ins!

Awarded Best of Zola
We arranged to have the Tuck-ins team come to our wedding to set up a table with small fire stations and Tuck-ins so that our guests could roast their own s'mores as a fun, interactive dessert. All of my guests loved them and they were also able to take some home if they wanted to save one for later. Additionally, working with the Tuck-ins team was great; they're very responsive and were even able to customize the labels on the Tuck-ins to have our names and wedding date on them. It was truly a unique part of our wedding and I think everyone enjoyed it. Highly recommend!
