About Brian - Founder of Epic Eventures
For nearly twenty years, I’ve worked in hospitality — from luxury hotels in San Francisco and New Orleans to private estates and coastal venues. Along the way, I’ve built bar programs, opened hotels, and trained teams for brands like Marriott and Hyatt.
But the part I love most has never changed: making people feel taken care of.
I started Epic Eventures to bring that same level of professionalism and polish to private events. Whether it’s a wedding, cocktail party, or corporate launch, I believe great service should feel effortless, personal, and memorable.
I still bartend select events myself — because staying hands-on keeps me connected to the craft, the guests, and the reason I started this in the first place: to make ordinary events feel epic.

Our Story
Epic Eventures began with one simple idea: that great events deserve great people.
What started as one bartender with a passion for service has grown into a team of experienced professionals who bring calm, confidence, and care to every event we touch. From intimate dinner parties to large-scale celebrations, our goal is the same — to make sure every guest leaves smiling and every host feels proud.
We’re more than staff. We’re your event’s backbone — the quiet professionals who keep things running smoothly behind the scenes so your night feels effortless.
Whether you need one bartender or a full team, we’re here to make your next event more than ordinary.
