WELL HELLO THERE
A team passionate about delivering unforgettable experiences
The idea for The Lucky Pony came to life when Jon’s love for bartending met Lindsay’s two decades of user experience strategy. Together, they crafted a mobile bartending service designed to elevate any event with an authentic and personalized touch. After searching for the perfect converted bar trailer, they found one they had long admired. In a stroke of luck, the owner decided to sell, and The Lucky Pony was born.
Let us enhance your event's aesthetic with our beautifully designed, picture-perfect trailer and satellite bar, including our team of accredited and skilled bartenders. We’d be lucky to share your special moments with you.
