Matt and Dani began their business in 2017 with their vintage caravan βFranβ debuting at their own wedding. After a hectic but rewarding first year they added an additional two vans βGeorge and Vincentβ as well as a mobile pop up bar to their offering.
Boutique event Co now has a bar to suit every event, the two vintage style caravans βFran & Georgeβ are popular among all wedding goers and backyard cocktail style events. The most recent addition is βVincentβ the mighty Airstream style silver bullet bar. Vincent is an American inspired silver bullet and is perfect for those larger events, PS we all know that the blokes love it!
For those throwing a smaller more intimate gathering, but who still prefer not to fuss over the drinks the mobile pop up bar is perfect. It offers the same great selection of drinks and bar service in a smaller more versatile package that can fit virtually anywhere.
They are truly passionate about delivering a quality service that you can rely on. Booking an event with Boutique Event Co means you donβt have to worry about a single thing before, during or after your event and this is perhaps the reason why they won the Geelong Small Business of the Year in 2018.
