We used Spare Hands to help bartend and support my mom’s 70th birthday party (~100 guests), and we can’t recommend them highly enough! From the start, Jennifer (the owner) was a pleasure to work with—she clearly explained their services, was flexible with scheduling, and made the whole process smooth with her thorough communication, payment options, and attention to detail.

On the night of the party, we had Sarah and Nimmi as our servers, and they were absolutely stellar. Not only did they handle the bartending with total professionalism, but they also went above and beyond helping wherever needed. Their service was seamless—they were well-prepared, proactive, and never had to be told what to do. It was clear they are highly experienced, and on top of that, they were so friendly and engaging with our guests.

Thanks to Spare Hands, my siblings and I were truly able to enjoy the evening as guests instead of worrying about the logistics. Their motto is to “help you be a guest at your own event,” and that’s exactly what they delivered. We would 100% use them again for future events and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, professional, and friendly event support.

They were so helpful on the day of our wedding! Everything was stocked and refilled right away and they made the dinner service run smoothly and look immaculate! They were responsive throughout our entire process and also helped with suggestions for how many service staff members we would need based on our changing guest count. They were so kind and made the process very smooth and easy! My husband and I truly felt like we could enjoy our wedding and we didn’t have to worry about any of the details because they just helped everything run so smoothly! I highly recommend!

Jennifer and her crew were incredible throughout the entire day of coordinating process.

She arrived at our rehearsal to help ensure everything ran smoothly, delivered our decorations to the venue, and even delivered them back to our apartment after.

Throughout the entire wedding day she went above and beyond to deliver an incredible and memorable experience! She is able to focus on all of the details so everything runs smoothly and you can enjoy the evening stress free! She does it with a smile and her crew was so fun and kind to all of our guests.

I cannot say enough positives about our experience, except that she will make you feel like family! We love her and will definitely use her for large parties in the future!!

I found Spare Hands on Yelp and they also came recommended by my venue. We’re so glad and SO grateful that we went with their amazing team! The price for the number of hours of service we needed was reasonable and the owner, Jennifer, was very responsive to my outreach and maintained open lines of communication with me about booking and leading up to my event. Our servers, Brian and Mayra, were incredibly helpful and just all hands on deck. They cleaned tables, passed our appetizer and cake, refilled waters, helped with our toast, and more! My family and guests were really complimentary of their service, and my mom was especially impressed with their level of attentiveness and professionalism. Overall, their team helped to keep everything clean and contributed to an overall smooth and fantastically magical wedding. Thank you Spare Hands and Jennifer!

I was referred to Jennifer at Spare Hands when I needed a food server for our son's wedding reception. BEST decision ever to use her services! We had Brian E. take care of everything from picking up the food at the restaurant and bringing it to the venue, to packing up the leftovers, and everything in between. Every time I looked up, Brian was busy doing something. I really don't know how he did it all! Jennifer was just super to handle all the arrangements and quickly respond to any question I had during the planning stage. If I ever need "spare hands" again, I will definitely contact Jennifer.

We have had many parties in our home over the years and I had never considered hiring service to help us. Unfortunately, a dear loved one in our family passed away and we hosted the repast at our house. Given the services and repast were scheduled for the same day I could not fathom how I was going to do it all so I reached out Jenn. I read a review that stated it was the best decision they ever made and I couldn’t say it better…BEST decision ever! We came home and everything was perfect. I couldn’t have ask for a better experience. This team knows exactly what they are doing. When you hire them trust and believe no matter the task your event will be amazing! Don’t see myself having anymore events without Spare Hands. Shout out out to Jenn, Sarah, and Ronnie! 💜

Hiring Spare Hands to be my day of wedding coordinator was the best decision I ever made! I do not know what we would have done without Jenn helping us set up, and make sure our day ran smoothly. She is so on top of everything and so detailed oriented. Not only is she amazing at her job, but she is also the sweetest person ever! She made me feel so special, and I felt so blessed to have someone there that really cared.

Hiring Spare Hands was the absolute best decision. This was the first wedding I coordinated and they helped me immensely! They saw where there would be hiccups and went above and beyond to solve them before they happened. Ashley and Ron were especially helpful, I appreciated their support so much. The whole staff was incredibly nice, warm, friendly, and helpful. I will definitely be calling them again for any future staffing needs!

I will never be able to explain how wonderful Jennifer was, and how much she absolutely made our wedding! We got married at the Casino San Clemente in September, and Jennifer was our day of coordinator. She was along with me and just a phone call away for the entire process, and when the day came she made the whole event flow so seamlessly! My husband and I highly recommend her and her team for any gathering big or small, she is truly such a wonder!

Managing family photo time, making sure my husband and I were fed all night, making sure everyone looked their best and of course keeping everyone calm, I seriously found myself wondering if there is anything she can’t do!

Spare Hands helped us as additional wait staff during our wedding. Jennifer was extremely helpful and responsive! She even helped figure out the best amount of wait staff and each individuals start and end time to help stagger times to ensure a consistent amount of help throughout the whole day. Overall everyone was very polite, professional, and curtious! I would highly recommend Spare Hands for any help you need as they were by far the best and easiest vendor to work with out of our whole wedding!
