The Gilded Shaker
Story
At The Gilded Shaker, we believe every event deserves a pour of passion and creativity. Founded by Mike in Portland, Oregon, our mobile bar service brings the art of mixology to your celebration, crafting unforgettable moments one drink at a time.
As an Oregon native, Mike lives with his wife and two kids in Clackamas and enjoys making delicious cocktails. When asked to bartend at a friend's party 15 years ago, Mike jumped at the opportunity, excited to dive into the cocktail world. Since then, Mike has brought creativity and craft cocktails to family and friends’ gatherings, finding ways to elevate each event with his creativity.
What started as a labor of love has grown into The Gilded Shaker—a business dedicated to elevating your event with personalized bartending and craft cocktails.
​
At The Gilded Shaker, our mission is to transform your event into a memorable celebration through the art of mobile mixology. ​With our commitment to excellence, we bring our attention to detail to your event, while designing each cocktail to engage the senses—sight, taste, texture, and smell. From the vivid colors of a garnished cocktail to the enticing aromas and bold tastes, Mike is a skilled mixologist who will create an experience that reflects your vision.
From intimate weddings to neighborhood gatherings, The Gilded Shaker is more than a bar—it’s a celebration of craftsmanship and community.
Let us bring the magic of mobile mixology to your next event!
