What you'll do:

You tell Cristyana your theme, your guests, and your vibe, and she builds your entire bar experience around that, from the first drink to the last pour.

• Share your vision — You kick things off with a consultation where your event details, preferences, and crowd are used to design a cocktail menu built only for your group.

• Arrive at a full bar setup — Cristyana handles all the setup before your guests arrive, including bar decor, glassware, garnishes, and ice. You walk in, and it's already ready.

• Choose from your custom menu — Your guests drink from a menu designed specifically for your occasion, not a generic list pulled from somewhere else.

• Watch the bar become the centerpiece — The setup is styled to photograph well and anchor the room, so guests naturally gather, mingle, and stay engaged.

• Hand off the logistics — From the shopping list to the final pour, every operational detail is managed for you so you're a guest at your own event.

This is what a private bartender for hire looks like when the service is actually built around the host. Every drink is deliberate. Every setup is styled. Every event is its own thing.

Why we love it for your party:

• Fully custom cocktail menu — Built from scratch for your specific event, not recycled from a previous booking.

• All-inclusive bar setup — Ice, glassware, garnishes, and bar decor are included, so you don't have to source anything separately.

• Gratuity included — The 20% gratuity is already in the price, no awkward math at the end of the night.

• Styled for photos — The bar setup is designed to look as good as it photographs, which matters when your guests are going to post it.

• Dual-market availability — Sipnotics serves both New Jersey and New York City, including an at-home bartending service across both areas.
