Charming
Sips

Bespoke cocktail experiences, wherever you celebrate

We bring warmth to every event — premium drinks, personable service, and an atmosphere that feels genuinely alive.

Our Story

Born from a genuine
love for hospitality.

Charming Sips was created out of a genuine love for hospitality and the connections that come with it. Between us, we've spent over 15 years in the industry — not just behind the bar, but managing venues, leading teams, and delivering successful events. From intimate private functions to weddings of 100+ guests, we know what it takes to run a seamless event — not just on the day, but throughout the planning process as well.

We crossed paths in Sydney — brought together by one of the city's most celebrated restaurants and a shared obsession with genuine hospitality. Over many post-work catch-ups (beers and cocktails!), we decided that Charming Sips was the natural next step for both of us.

Our background in events and management is what sets us apart. When booking Charming Sips, you're not just hiring bartenders — you're working with two people who have run events at the highest level and know what it takes to make an event run smoothly. From the first consultation, we take the reins, ensuring the planning and execution is nothing but exciting for you and everyone involved.

The People

I didn't stumble into hospitality — I was born into it. Growing up in the suburbs of Rio de Janeiro, I was already behind the scenes of my mother's catering business at 16, learning early that great food and drink are really just excuses to bring people together.

In 2019, Dublin came calling — and so did the world of mixology. What began with pulling pints in local pubs quickly turned into a full-blown love affair with the craft. I worked hard to earn my place at one of the city's most acclaimed cocktail bars before stepping into a management role — overseeing operations, leading a team, and making sure every guest left with an experience worth talking about.

My next stop was Sydney, where I continued to grow my experience across large-scale venues, refining my skills both behind the bar and in event operations. My strong background in the industry means when you book Charming Sips, you're not just getting great drinks — you're getting a team who understands what it takes to deliver a seamless, well-executed event from start to finish.

Originally from the UK, I've spent the past seven years working in hospitality across everything from local pubs to cocktail bars. My most recent role in London at a private members club is where I stepped into management, with a heavy focus on event delivery. Weddings, birthday celebrations, corporate functions — events of 100 guests or more, each one expected to run without a hitch. That kind of environment taught me very quickly about the importance of preparation and reliability. Guests deserve to feel calm and relaxed throughout the planning stage as much as on the day of their event.

In 2025, I made the move to Sydney, drawn by the city's world-class hospitality scene — and that operational mindset came with me. I began my Australian journey at a casual fine dining venue in The Rocks, growing my food and beverage knowledge even further. Now it's time to continue my passion for event management through Charming Sips — creating relaxed, seamless experiences with genuine, personable service for every guest.
