Born From a Wedding That Deserved Better
Bryan Kenneth P. has been bartending for 19 years. When planning a wedding in 2022, the couple hired outside bartenders and came away disappointed by service that felt more like a folding table with a tablecloth than a true bar experience.
Knowing the craft could be done better, and far more classy, Bowtie Barmates LLC was founded to bring elegant, fully-equipped bars to events across Central Pennsylvania, staffed by bartenders who treat every celebration with the same care as their own.
Nearly two decades of craft, poured into every event.
From learning the trade behind the bar to founding a business built on elegance and reliability, experience shapes every detail of our service.
⧓ 19 Years Bartending
Nearly two decades spent mastering hospitality, technique, and the art of reading a room, the foundation every Bowtie Barmates event is built on.

The last nine years focused specifically on event bartending, from private parties to weddings, refining a professional, self-sufficient approach to mobile bar service.
