Built behind the bar in Chicago.
Founded by Kohlette Weaver and Jazmine Sanchez, J. Marie is a bar company for hosts who want service, presentation, and guest experience to feel equally considered.
The bar should feel like part of the event.
Kohlette Weaver and Jazmine Sanchez met behind a bar in Chicago in 2023 and immediately realized they shared a vision. With 20 combined years in the service industry, they built J. Marie to deliver a polished and charismatic bar experience wherever it is needed.
The idea was simple: build a bar company that feels as cool as the events it serves. J. Marie brings the tools to support each host's vision and the kind of hospitality that makes everyone in attendance feel like they are exactly where they should be.
The team cares about reading a room, curating the energy for a smooth operation, and paying attention to the details that make the night feel like it truly belongs to the people gathering. Wherever you're celebrating, the bar arrives ready to belong.
