About UpHill Taps

UpHill Taps is a hospitality-led bar experience specializing in beautifully integrated bars services for modern celebrations. 

Why we started

We founded UpHill Taps with a simple belief: the bar should be as intentional, beautiful, and memorable as the rest of the celebration. For too long, event bars were treated as an afterthought—functional, but rarely considered part of the design or guest experience.

As planners, hosts, and guests ourselves, we knew there was an opportunity to bring hospitality, aesthetics, and thoughtful service together in a way that elevates the entire event.

So we built UpHill Taps to do exactly that.

Our Approach

Every celebration is different, which is why we design our bar experience around the vision, venue, and flow of the event itself. Whether through our Tap Bar, Satellite Bars, or on-site bar service, we ensure the bar integrates beautifully into the space and supports the guest experience.

Veronica

UpHill Taps is led by Veronica and Augusto, a husband-and-wife team passionate about design, hospitality, and crafting elevated bar experiences for modern celebrations.

Veronica oversees creative direction and client experience, ensuring the bar integrates beautifully with the event aesthetic, venue, and guest flow.

Augusto

Augusto serves as Director of Hospitality & Operations, leading the beverage program, logistics, staffing, and on-site execution.

Together, they design and execute bar experiences that enhance the celebration and elevate the guest journey. 

"UpHill Taps was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. The bar looked beautiful, the cocktails were incredible, and the service was so thoughtful. Our guests kept talking about how amazing the bar was. We didn’t have to worry about a thing, they handled every detail.”

“We hired UpHill Taps for our conference welcome party and they exceeded every expectation. From planning to execution, they were organized, professional, and extremely easy to work with. The bar setup elevated the space and created a great social energy for networking. Our leadership team was impressed and our attendees loved the cocktails. We’ll absolutely be using them again for future events.”

“UpHill Taps made Valentina’s 6th birthday party so special! The bar looked adorable with our theme, the mocktails were a huge hit with the kids, and the adults loved having craft cocktails. Their team was kind, patient, and so easy to work with. I actually got to enjoy the party instead of running around the entire time.”

“We used UpHill Taps for my 50th birthday and they made the whole celebration feel elevated. The cocktails were fantastic, the service was seamless, and the bar became the gathering spot of the party. Everyone kept asking me where I found them. It honestly took the stress out of hosting, they handled everything.”
