These packages are a long time coming. First envisioned by founder Belinda Kelly when she was still employed as an Human Resources employee at Microsoft, the mobile”happier hour” packages combine the fine hospitality and high quality beverage catering for which the Happy Camper Cocktail Company has earned its reputation with convenience, a tightly curated menu, and a shorter service time ideal for after work parties and lunch meetings.

The Happier Hour service by Happy Camper Cocktail Company combines the utmost efficiency of service with the ultimate in stylish hospitality on location. The drink menu features PNW distilleries, wineries, and breweries and mixers are still made by hand in small batches from locally farmed ingredients for the freshest and best flavor possible.

Happy Camper Cocktail Company’s luxe mobile bars and award winning cocktails will start the party for your workplace! Morale events, employee appreciation, workplace announcements, meetings, and product launches are all improved with our stunning mobile bar (built for ultimate portability to fit even the smallest elevators!), friendly and professional event staff, and PNW inspired beer, wine, and garden to glass cocktails. With a tailored menu and petite footprint, #HappierHour work party packages are the perfect fit for your next corporate event.

Fauxchella: A Boho Bar Extravagazna

August 23, 2018/ Happy Camper

Corporate event season is upon us again! Summer picnics are popping up all over town and already, the holiday event planning has begun in offices all over this Emerald City. I can hear the event design gears turning now: "Flower crowns! Rockaroke! PNW Camp Out! Balloon arches! "Hook!" Lost Boys style food fight on a tarp-covered football field with colored pudding ammunition and large donations given to FoodLifeline to counterbalance the waste karma!" (Ok that last one is just mine, several times proposed to my old boss at Microsoft, and never seized as the genius bucket list style activity it is. I have the logistics all worked out if anyone is interested in hiring me to pick this one up out of the so to speak 'round file.')

As we just approach our last summer 2018 corporate gig next week, and as Seattle corporate event planners finish up their employee picnics, corporate barbeques, and end of the year parties city-wide, I have some inspiration for future you.

Shindig! Events and CRG Events did INCREDIBLE work in summer 2017 for their clients, and we were honored to be a part of the surprise and delight they delivered, via providing bar service for some of Seattle's top companies. Given that each of these events took place approximately one year ago, I thought that it would be fun to take a look back at the good times.

As a fun and conversation-starting centerpiece for their #wayoutwest (Shindig) and #fauxchella (CRG) events, our camper bar and wooden bars shone, and more importantly, provided craft cocktails of the highest quality to its discerning sippers.

The guests at these events are the same folks who flood our city's craft cocktail bars, farm to table restaurants, and microbreweries, so it only makes sense that they should expect to drink the same quality beverages at their corporate picnics. After all, there is nothing more sad to us than a black tablecloth covered, 6-foot table "bar" pouring liters of generic wine by the glass. We were proud to deliver local beer, wine, and our garden to glass cocktails, mixed with Washington state distillers' spirits and our own farm's edible flower garnishes to these thirsty guests.

Propriety stops me from oversharing the details of these events, but I would like to share with you more about the bar service we put together.

Offerings included Seattle Cider Company's cider, Fremont Brewing's draft brews, and an inventive and on-theme menu of seasonal"garden to glass" cocktails curated specifically for our clients. We poured Heritage Distilling vodka and bourbon by the case in our signature bourbon peach teas, lavender lemonades, watermelon tequila smashes, as well as a dozen gallons of the drink of the summer, our own secret recipe frose- a frozen slushie of wine blended with Washington grown Strawberries.

One event hosted 500 guests, the other welcomed 1,500 for a summer bash. We staffed up, built new bars, and rolled up our sleeves for fast, efficient, and craft dedicated "garden to glass" bar service for all.

You can feast your eyes on the pretty party results below, and then give us an email to reserve your bar service for Holiday season 2018 and summer 2019. Trust us, it's not too early!
