About Event Bartending Services
Where Drinks Meet Drama
Bartending isn’t just a job for me, it’s pure magic. I’ve spent ages dropping bottles, perfecting tricks, and practicing until my hands just know what to do. What you’ll see at your event is the polished show - the skill, the style, and a little bit of “arre waah!” (wow).
The Craft: More Than Just Pouring
- I mix both classics and my own crazy creations - you’ll get everything from a sharp White Lady to a Scottish Strawberry Sour.
- If you want something special, we’ll put together a custom cocktail menu for your theme or your crowd.
- Mocktails? Sorted. I never forget the non-drinkers.
- I can make those “wait, how did you do that?” shots - think layered rainbow shots and the whole flaming drama.
The Show: Flair & Fire
- This is where the real masti (fun) starts. Juggling bottles, crazy flips and pours - the whole flair bartending performance is part of the deal.
- Want more drama? Fire flair, flaming cocktails, sometimes even fire-breathing (don’t worry, safety is always on my mind).
- The bar becomes a proper show, not just a counter for drinks.
The Setup & Events
- I bring my own mobile cocktail bar for events, complete with LEDs and all the pro gear - it looks slick, works everywhere.
- Mostly in Nagpur, Mumbai, and Bangalore. Weddings, sangeets, corporate launches, birthday parties - basically anywhere you need a crowd-pleaser.
Bartending is my life. I love making people smile, one drink (and one trick) at a time.

My Story
Hey, I’m Sonal. Bartending’s my jam, whether I’m flipping bottles at a wedding in Mumbai or teaching the basics in Nagpur. You’ll spot me behind the bar, making cocktails and pulling off some wild tricks. At FMBA, I train folks to master every move, from single flips to full-on routines. For me, it’s more than mixing drinks – it’s living the flair life, working hard but always keeping it fun. Cheers, yaar!
