A big shoutout to Brandon behind the bar! 🍸We love Brandon’s positive attitude and the light and enthusiasm he brings every single day. Whether he’s crafting cocktails behind the bar or taking care of guests on the restaurant floor, he always goes above and beyond to make people feel welcome. From celebrating special moments like this with our brides and grooms to keeping the energy high on busy nights, Brandon is simply the best.

Big nights at Northern Pacific Center don’t happen by accident. Jen is the engine behind the scenes — coordinating food + beverage prep, leading the serving team, solving problems before anyone notices them, and somehow doing it all with calm, grit, and a smile.

The events may get the spotlight, but Jen is a huge part of what makes the experience feel seamless from start to finish. We’re lucky to have her leading the charge. 👏
