    Great experience!

    The Watering Hole provided a fantastic beverage service for our wedding! We booked the pop-up bar, and it looked beautiful in the event barn. They kept folks moving through quickly and did a lovely job. We elected to do the tasting box and had a great time planning our signature cocktails for the day. The pop-up bar can also hold a surprising number of kegs! It was so fun to get to offer a wide selection!

    Thank you so much for your kind words

    100% Recommend!! They are awesome!

    The watering hole was such an fun touch to our wedding! Everyone loved it!! Our bartenders were so nice! All we had to do was order our alcohol and the watering hole picked if up for us! They went above and beyond and ran up to the store for us when we ran out of water bottles. They were wonderful to work with and the truck was adorable! I would highly recommend having them at your wedding!! Thanks for everything!!

    Such a fun experience!

    We absolutely loved having the Watering Hole Truck at our wedding! They are such a fun and unique vendor, not to mention absolutely incredible to work with! They even worked with our planner to bring us drinks during the after-ceremony photos, which needless to say, was much needed!

    Michael, his wife, and team are amazing, and made the experience so easy and fun. You will make the BEST decision by booking them for your big day!

    Amazing Addition to our Reception

    We absolutely LOVED having The Watering Hole at our reception and would highly recommend them! We only had them for part of our reception and one of our only wedding day regrets is not keeping them for the full event! The truck looked great, the draft beer was delicious, the bartenders were super friendly, and all of our guests loved it! Working with them ahead of time was easy and they were very responsive!

    Emily,
    Thank you! We had so much fun at your wedding and reception!
    Thanks for trusting us with such a big part of your special day.

    Wonderful Experience

    Working with The Watering Hole and Mike specifically was hands down the most fun thing we could have done for our reception! The truck is awesome and service impeccable. Everyone loved it and commented on how great it was. We chose the 4 tap and 2 fountain system. Mike made it so easy to organize our bartending needs and was extremely helpful during the whole process. If we ever have another event, The Watering Hole is a go to for us. Highly recommend!

    Amazing and fun bar experience

    We loved having the Watering Hole Truck at our wedding! They were so accommodating and made the planning easy! Everyone still talks about how unique and fun our bar was, it was a hit! We would suggest the Watering Hole Truck to anyone we know!

    Could not have been happier with Mike and Harley. Used them for our daughters wedding 4/14/18. Mike took care of everything!! They were a “huge” hit at the wedding. Couldn’t count the number of people that were so impressed by them. Served 250+without a hitch. Highly recommend Mike and his team.

    Hands down one of my favorite parts of my wedding reception! My mom found them just weeks before my wedding so she did most of the communicating with them and had nothing but great things to say. They were soooo nice to all of my guests and their happiness seemed so genuine it felt like they fit right in. Highly recommend!

    I had the pleasure of experiencing the Watering Hole's debut at Harli and Mike's own wedding! It couldn't have been more perfect for their beautiful outdoor rustic wedding. The service was impeccable and it provided a wonderful gathering space for all the guests. Highly recommend to anyone who wants more charm in their wedding bar!

    Amazing team with a great product!

    TWH was amazing at our Classics Auto Auction event! They were fun, spirited and had wonderful servers. They went above and beyond in bar service! We will be a repeat client for sure. I cannot rave enough about the set up/ breakdown/ over-all look & the knowledge base that the provided for the event. TWH made our event!!

    The Watering Hole's reply:

    Tiffanie,
    It is always such a pleasure working with you and Classics Auto Auction! We can not wait until the next event :)

    Cherry on top!

    Me and my husband loved having them at our wedding! Everyone thought we had a cute bar and it was a great idea having them there as they really matched our barn theme. My husband didn’t want to pay for a mobile bar at first but I eventually convinced him. Him and his groomsmen definitely loved it and got their drinks even before the ceremony started. The only downside is it’s not a full bar since you have to provide all alcohol separately due to state law. We bought the beer kegs, liquor, wine, and other sodas separately but they provide the coke and soda water and all other materials and garnishes. I still recommend weighing in the cost of a full bar from a caterer versus a mobile bar depending on your budget. But they definitely were the cherry on top for our wedding!
