Husband + Wife Team
Charlene joined the service industry early on as a young adult, spending her college career slingin' drinks at a casino. She received her bachelor's degree in education before obtaining a job in management where she discovered her passion for leadership and the satisfaction that comes with dedication and hard work. These things, paired with her love for creativity, inspired her to create The Wandering Social™. When she's not working, you can find her at the gym.
Favorite drink: Margaritas all day, every day!

"A must have at your wedding!
My wedding would have been not nearly as memorable if it was not for Charlene and the Wandering Social! Charlene puts her heart and soul into her business and it clearly shows (check out their instagram!) I booked with her over a year ago and she really was involved every step of the way; connecting me with other wedding vendors and overall making the whole wedding planning experience more enjoyable. The bar was adorable and I love how it was customized to us with signage and drink stirs. My family and friends are still raving about it and we loved the fact that the portions sizes were just right so everyone were able to celebrate safely with us. Do yourself a favor and book with them for your event today!
"the best in the business!
I can’t rave enough about my experience with this vendor!! I researched several different local tap trucks and went back and forth before choosing this one. From the first moment I reached out, Charlene was an absolute pleasure to work with! She made me feel so comfortable and at ease! She was so flexible, accommodating and supportive throughout the ENTIRE process and experience! She made me feel special and like my party/event was special to her (even though I know she had sooo many other events before and after mine in her pipeline!) The day of my son’s 1st birthday party; she stayed the entire time, serving my guests, being so sweet and friendly to them and EVEN surprised me and made extra signs for the party. I am truly appreciative and literally can’t wait to work with her again!!
"absolute perfection!
Wow!! The Wandering Social delivered! We hired them for our son’s wedding and from the customer service to every detail of our event, Charlene, Ryan and team, were perfect! Communication was outstanding! The set up was absolutely beautiful and fun! Thank you so much for making everything effortless on my son’s special day! We highly recommend you! Thank you so much for everything!
