Bartenders4You was established in 2007 by Jennifer Smith when she recognized a need for a service that specialized in beverage catering only. We provided the clients with TABC certified, specially trained staff that focused only on drinks. Bartenders4You quickly filled this void by servicing an average of 600 events a year. We did this by focusing on providing delicious craft cocktails and impeccable service to our clients.

Bartenders4You has grown to be the most recognized and recommended mobile bartenders in South Texas, not only by venues and planners, but also by catering services that use Bartenders for you for events that require more attention to detail, curation, and beautifully garnished cocktails that only our staff are specially trained to do.

Bartenders4You allows the client to purchase their own alcohol for their events which saves them thousands from the catering company markups. We of course give you guidance on what you will need and how much. Bartenders4u is here every step of the way to answer any and all questions related to your bar service.

Bartenders for You is the only bar service that has an office and a fully stocked tasting room for you to come in and have your vision realized. We bring your vision to life with our curated cocktails. If there are specific flavors that you like, but you aren’t sure which cocktail to choose, we’ll find the right one for you even if we have to create one on the spot.

Bartenders 4 You continues to be the leading industry expert when it comes to custom mobile bartending services not only in Texas, but throughout the United States. Bartenders4You has been the industry leader that has sparked a boom of bar tending services in our area. In the last 19 years we have seen hundreds of new bartending services pop up and within a year or two, they vanish. Why are we still around after 17 years? Through the years we learned that this is a business and not a hobby. This is a family owned and operated business and our staff are the best in the industry. We price our services accordingly to help us run a business and not a side hustle that is here today and gone tomorrow because of burnout and failure to make a profit. Our staff is as loyal as they come and they have built great relationships with all of the industry professionals that they work with on a daily basis, so that on the day of your event they all work as a team and as a well oiled machine.

Craig and Melissa Gaines are the new owners of Bartenders4You. Melissa has been in the event industry for 23 years. Melissa has worked in the corporate and not- profit field and the wedding industry from NYC to Texas. With a deep passion for every client she strives to make every detail perfect on event day. Craig previously worked as an IT Manager overseeing budgets, client satisfaction, and empowering employees. We met at church and we have been married for 13 years and together we are the parents of 3 young daughters. We love being a part of everyone’s special day. Whether it’s a wedding, quinceañera, birthday, graduation, or corporate Christmas party, every event is important to us.
