Hodde Bros Beverage Co. 
Santa Monica, CA
  • Starts at $2,500

It goes back a century and involves a little beer ‘royalty.’ In 1915, Henry and Peter Hodde (rhymes with “Hottie”), sons of Helena Busch (yes, that Busch), launched the Hodde Bros Beverage Company, the first Budweiser distributor in Detroit. ​ In 1920, Prohibition forced a shift in focus, and “Hodde Dew” cola was born. (“Howdy do,” get it? Olden times sure were quaint.) ​ Hodde Dew would eventually be bought and absorbed by a larger pop-maker (we won’t name names). But Hodde Bros Beverage Company continued to thrive, serving the greater Detroit area well into the 1970s. Now, bringing a century of tradition with us, the Hodde Bros Beverage Company has ventured west, offering custom cocktail catering, staffing and mobile bar services to Southern California, the West Coast and beyond.

Known for their work ethic, professionalism, and friendliness, their staff has mixed drinks for every type and size of event, ranging from exclusive dinner parties to thousand-person movie premiers.

Jordan was nothing short of perfect through our entire time discussing and planning our wedding. My wife and I are planners. We asked a lot of questions. Honestly, we were probably a little annoying and Jordan treated us kindly throughout, made us feel taken care of through the entire planning process for the bar for our wedding and then her bartenders were incredibly kind, nice, quick, and really enhanced the party. Everyone was happy. We will certainly recommend them to all and use them again down the road!

Lit Cocktails LLC 

4.2

  • Starts at $800
  • Serves Santa Monica, CA

My name is Diamond Davis. I am a former restaurant manager, event coordinator and bartender. My restaurant closed due to Covid-19 so I thought of a way I could still do what I love while providing others with happiness and relief. One of the happiest days of my life was my wedding day. Although happy, it was stressful and nerve-wracking. Just prior to walking down the aisle, I took a shot to ease my nerves. Sounds weird but, I thought, "I'd like to ease people's nerves on their big day." Thus you have, Lit Cocktails! Providing you with ease and relief on your big day--- Alcoholically.

Dear Becky, Considering your abysmal treatment of me and my business partner, I am disappointed by all the false claims in your review. I was hoping some time and reflection on your part would improve your disposition but I see, sadly, it hasn't. As you have noted in your review, I do strive to put my clients at ease and provide support for them on their journey to their wedding day. This includes the tasting you mentioned, which I charge a very small fee to cover ingredients and travel. At the end of that two-hour tasting of over 10 different cocktails, not once did you express any dissatisfaction with any of the drinks, but instead raved about the drinks and asked for refills (specifically the espresso martini, which you chose as one of your specialty cocktails). Following this tasting, I continued to work with your additional demands of uncompensated site visits to a location over an hour outside my service area and an additional uncompensated tasting. This still was not enough to satisfy you. I was asked to attend a second site visit, which I politely declined. You then asked for another uncompensated tasting to "practice" making a Painkiller, a drink that I supplied you with during our initial tasting. Unable to accommodate your last minute request, I asked you to send me your version of the recipe, so I could be sure to make it to your standards on your wedding day and you proceeded to send me the exact same recipe I used to prepare this drink at your tasting. To clarify on which services were "out of scope," meaning, not that I cannot provide these services, but that these services do incur extra charges. These services include: • A third specialty cocktail (two are included with my package) • Pre-batching those 3 specialty cocktails, which I simply added on an hour of service time to be able to prepare this in time for service • The addition of 20 more guests, which changes the initial service quote • The addition of 2 mocktails, also pre-batched, which incurs an additional charge for additional ingredients and prep time necessary and is also considered a specialty cocktail. This, you added on a week before your event and insisted on making yourself, so as not to incur the extra charges. I never asked you to. • The addition of a second bartender, who you repeatedly refer to as "my wife". She is, in fact, my business partner and a certified bartender. All of the above services were added on after our initial consultation, within the weeks leading up to your wedding. And after I updated your invoice (in which I was already giving you a discounted rate) to include some of these changes, you proceeded to call me and scream at me over daring to charge you extra for things you asked for. I am very mindful of budgets and have worked with countless clients to find solutions and services that fit within their budgets. I, however, am a business and cannot work for free. Any stress added to your plate, was due to your unwillingness to properly compensate me for these additions as well as making constant changes leading up to the week of your wedding. In the 3 years I've been in business and over a hundred events my business partner and I have bartended, you are the only client I have had to part ways with. I am happy you found someone you trusted more than me to make your wedding a success and I wish you all the best on your new marriage.

I booked Bri for my backyard wedding and I have nothing but great things to say about her! She was amazing to work with start to finish. My wedding day had some surprise rain so her and our bartender, Nicole (who was also amazing) showed up extra early just to be prepared. My favorite things about the service were: 1. They handle everything (cups, ice, water, straws, mixers, etc.). All I had to do was buy the alcohol and Bri told me exactly what to get. 2. They made my favorite margarita recipe! Some bars have their standard drinks and mixes they serve, but Bri and her team followed my recipe exactly. 3. All communications with Bri are in a portal where you can easily access and reference everything. 4. They matched their decor to fit the style of my wedding. 5. Bri was the sweetest and answered every question of my promptly and with excitement/kindness. I cannot recommend them enough!

Adding the Native Tap as one of our vendors for our baby shower was the cherry on top! Armando and Savannah were very professional, extremely open and detail oriented. After doing a client meeting, Savannah and I communicated via text. She was so helpful with all of my questions and concerns. They had moved from Sacramento to San Diego but that didn’t stop them from driving all the way to my desired location. The day of my baby shower, they arrived early to set up, everyone enjoyed their drinks and received a very good feedback from our crowd. I would hire them in a heartbeat for every event moving forward!

I was so worried about losing them each time but they were dedicated to being there with us & it worked! Not only is this bar aesthetically gorgeous, the owners are seriously the best. I recommend them to absolutely everyone. I went into this whole wedding planning not knowing anything about how much alcohol we would need or where to even start! They were always so responsive & helped us out with every single detail. They provided, cups, water, ice, napkins, storage for alcohol & kegs + more! The owners also offered to take my extra florals to a local retirement facility which I LOVED that idea. Our florals unfortunately didn’t work but the fact that they were willing to go the extra route & donate them, was so special. They always treated us like a priority & made sure we were happy with everything which made it that much easier as a bride. Dalton + Co deserves all of your business, we appreciate them SO much for making our special day that much better!

The bartenders on board were not only skilled mixologists but also friendly and engaging. They interacted with our guests, sharing stories about the bus and the drinks they were serving. It truly felt like a personalized experience, and our guests couldn't stop raving about it. The aesthetics of the VW bus were also a highlight. It provided a fantastic backdrop for photos, and it fit seamlessly into our rustic-chic wedding decor. It was like having a piece of vintage charm right at our venue.
