About

Welcome to Raising Our Bar! We are striving to create a unique and personalized experience unlike any other here at Raising Our Bar. We know planning a wedding can leave couples feeling stressed over every detail, especially when you may not have had the task of planning such a large event with so many faces before. You will find our pricing structure different than most, but we are confident our prices and quality are competitive and usually more affordable than others.

Our packages ensure that your guests have a variety of options throughout the evening and are responsibly served. Let us get to know you and your guests and do the work of creating the perfect menu with the right amount of each variety for you! Please note that all standard packages include two beer options, two wine options, cups, napkins, ice, as well as, soda, and bar staff. This helps our clients solidify all their beverage needs with one great service. Wine and beer selections can be customized and premier options are available at additional costs. We also have the pleasure of working alongside many couples to create custom cocktails that are all your own!

I look forward to being a part of the most romantic, memorable day of your lives!

Cheers!

Exceptional Staff and Service

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing the bar service at my friends wedding, and I cannot express enough how outstanding the staff was. From the moment we arrived, they greeted us with warm smiles and a level of professionalism that made us feel truly special. The bartenders were not only skilled in crafting delicious cocktails but also attentive to our guests’ needs, ensuring everyone had a drink in hand and was enjoying themselves.

Emily played a pivotal role in making the wedding day seamless. Her attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction were evident throughout the planning process. She took the time to understand our preferences and provided valuable suggestions that enhanced our overall experience. On the day of the event, Emily was present to oversee everything, ensuring that both the bar service and overall atmosphere were perfect. Her dedication made all the difference, allowing us to relax and enjoy our celebration without any worries.

In summary, if you’re looking for a wedding bar service that combines exceptional staff with outstanding customer service from Emily, look no further. They truly made our special day unforgettable!

David & Michaels wedding at Still Water Hollow

We had our wedding at Still Water Hollow, and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The venue is stunning, offering a beautiful blend of rustic charm and elegance with its breathtaking landscape, serene pond, and welcoming atmosphere. Every corner of the property feels thoughtfully designed which created a romantic feeling for our entire special day.

What truly set our experience apart was the incredible Emily Heithecker. Emily wore many hats for our wedding—she was not only the venue manager but also our bar manager and wedding planner! From the moment we booked the venue, Emily was there to guide us every step of the way. She helped us navigate the logistics with ease, offering incredible advice on timelines, layouts, and everything in between. Her organizational skills are unmatched, and she made sure that no detail was overlooked!

On the day of the wedding, Emily was a calming presence, seamlessly coordinating everything behind the scenes so we could enjoy our day without worry. Whether it was ensuring our vendors were in place, setting up the ceremony space, or managing the timing with efficiency and grace, Emily handled it all flawlessly. She was always available to answer questions and made us feel like our wedding was her top priority.

We can’t thank Emily and the entire team at Still Water Hollow enough for making our wedding day truly magical. If you’re looking for a venue that combines beauty with exceptional service, I would absolutely choose them without hesitation. Still Water Hollow exceeded all our expectations, and we’re so grateful for the unforgettable experience and the most amazing wedding day ♥️

Part of my daughters perfect day

Highly professional. Was a required vendor for the venue so that part of the decision was empty. They were professional, accomodating and tolerant. Helped make my daughters day the one she always dreamed of. Would recommend to anyone who doesn't want to worry about the bar during their event.

Best Beer/Wine Bar Service

Emily was great to work with, we communicated over email mostly which I loved as I'm not always available on the phone with work. She was flexible and able to work with me over small bumps in the road when it came to selections. If you're looking for an excellent beer/wine bar for your wedding this the Vendor!

A drink to match the colors!

To be honest, I sort of got stuck with this vendor. The venue we were at only allowed two places to do the beverage service. However, that being said, Emily was absolutely fantastic and I would have booked her even if I had been at a different venue. She has different packages/prices you can select and can even do something that works with what you are specifically looking for. We did a cocktail hour while getting or pictures done. Not only was that a success without breaking our wallets, but she developed this gorgeous purple lavender lemeonade drink that was just as pretty as it was dangerous. It was a huge hit with the guests! Booking was easy and she even did a cocktail tasting since we had a few options we were trying to figure out thanks to the Idaho liquor laws.

Married 06/08/18

We were one of the first couples to book with Emily and Raising Our Bar and we could not be happier with the decision. Emily was so helpful, professional, fun, and truly seemed to care about us and our wedding. Between the gorgeous signature cocktails, custom signage, wine, beer, 2 bar locations, and a wedding full of drinkers everything went off without a hitch. I would recommend this bar service to anyone and everyone getting married or throwing any type of event!
