There is something special about food that brings back memories of home.

Banana pudding was Dolly Parton’s favorite dessert. She grew up one of 12 children in the mountains of Tennessee, where treats weren’t something her family had all the time. Her mother, Avie Lee, would make homemade banana pudding for the family, and it became one of those foods Dolly never forgot.

Years later, she still talked about banana pudding and the memories of being in the kitchen with her mother, grandmother, and aunts. For her, those foods meant family, Sundays, church, singing, and being together.

I love that.

We made this banana pudding from scratch, and today it seems like the perfect thing to share in her memory.

Dolly never seemed to forget where she came from. No matter how famous she became, she continued to talk about her family, her faith, the mountains she grew up in, and the simple things that mattered to her.

So here’s a bowl of banana pudding for Dolly. 🤍

Thank you for the music, the laughter, the generosity, and for reminding us that you can go a long way in this world without forgetting home.

“I will always love you.” 🦋

✨ WHY BOOK YOUR EVENT WITH ON THE FLY TAPSTERS? ✨

Because your event deserves more than food dropped on a table and drinks poured behind a bar.

It deserves a team that cares about the entire experience.

At On The Fly Tapsters, we bring together catering, craft cocktails, professional bartending, event staffing, and coordination to help make your event feel effortless from beginning to end.

🥂 Craft cocktails that are actually crafted
Our menus go beyond the basics, with thoughtfully designed signature cocktails, quality ingredients, beautiful garnishes, and drinks created specifically for your event.

🍽️ Food made with ingredients we’re proud to serve
We believe great catering starts with great ingredients. We prioritize quality, prepare our food with care, and don’t use cheap seed oils just to cut costs.

👨‍🍳 A professional team—not just people hired for the day
From our chefs and bartenders to our servers and Event Experience Manager, our team understands hospitality and knows how to keep an event moving smoothly.

📋 We think about the details before you have to
Timelines. Setup. Venue logistics. Bar planning. Staffing. Rentals. Service flow. Breakdown. Those little details can become big problems when no one is managing them. We plan for them.

🍸 Catering + Bar + Staffing = One Team
Instead of coordinating multiple vendors, you can have one experienced team working together under one plan.

🛡️ Licensed. Insured. Professional.
We carry the proper insurance and licensing for the services we provide because protecting our clients, venues, guests, and team matters.

✨ And most importantly—we care how your event feels.

Beautiful food and cocktails matter. But so does whether your guests are greeted warmly, whether the buffet stays beautiful, whether glasses are cleared, whether the timeline stays on track, and whether you actually get to enjoy the event you planned.

Weddings • Corporate Events • Private Parties • Galas • Celebrations • Mixology Experiences

You bring the guests. We’ll help create the experience. 🥂

📩 Now booking upcoming events through 2028!

From the Land to Your Table 🌿🌸

Every edible flower, fragrant herb, and fresh garnish tells a story. At On The Fly Tapsters, we take pride in growing many of the ingredients that make their way into our cocktails and cuisine right here on our farm.

From vibrant nasturtiums and delicate blooms to aromatic herbs picked at their peak, we believe food and drinks are at their best when they stay close to nature. It’s our way of bringing freshness, flavor, and a little bit of the farm to every event we serve.

Because great hospitality starts long before the event—it starts in the soil.

🌸 Spring was one for the books! 🌸

From beautiful weddings and corporate gatherings to backyard celebrations and community events, this season kept our team moving and doing what we love most—creating memorable experiences through food, drinks, and hospitality.

One of our favorite parts of spring is seeing our gardens come to life. Many of the edible flowers you see garnishing our cocktails, grazing tables, desserts, and specialty dishes are grown right here by our team. From vibrant blooms to fresh herbs, we love bringing ingredients from our garden directly to your event.

As we look back on the season, we’re grateful for every client who trusted us to be part of their celebrations, every vendor who partnered with us, and every guest who stopped by our bars and tables.

Now we’re ready for summer—and all the incredible events still to come. ☀️🍹🌿

Thank you for supporting local, family-owned businesses and allowing us to share our passion for exceptional food, craft cocktails, and homegrown details.

Big congratulations are in order for two of our incredible Tapsters, Gabriel and Pahola, as they complete this chapter of their studies and prepare for college this fall! 🎓✨

These two have become such an important part of what keeps On The Fly moving behind the scenes. From long event days to late nights back at the kitchen resetting, reorganizing, cleaning, unloading, and making sure we’re ready to do it all again the next day — they are almost always the last ones standing with us.

Gabriel, who also serves as one of our event managers and part owners, brings leadership, calm under pressure, and dedication to every event he touches. Pahola truly does a little bit of everything and has become an amazing part of our grazing table team, helping create some of the beautiful displays our clients know and love.

What makes us especially proud is how well they work together as a team. No matter how long the day has been, they always show up ready to help wherever needed with positive attitudes and strong work ethic.

Watching young adults grow, work hard, and prepare for their next chapter is one of the most rewarding parts of building this company. We are so proud of both of you and cannot wait to see what the future holds. We are lucky to have you both as part of the On The Fly family. ❤️

Also, a huge thank you to Kirk Thompson with KT Images for capturing these amazing shots for us! 📸

Help us congratulate Gabriel and Pahola in the comments! 👏🎉

What a night in DC. 🔥

On May 13th, we had the honor of bartending and catering for the National Cannabis Industry Association during their event week here in Washington, DC.

The turnout at The 507 on Capitol Hill was incredible, and the energy in the room was unmatched. From industry leaders and advocates to entrepreneurs and innovators, it was amazing to see so many people coming together to help shape the future of the cannabis industry. 🌿

Our team served up:
✨ Carrot Cake Kush
✨ Purple Haze Mule
✨ Elevated bites and catering designed to keep the crowd fueled all evening long

Thank you to everyone who stopped by the bar, grabbed a bite, tipped our bartenders, and showed love throughout the night. We’re grateful to be part of events that bring people together through great food, creative cocktails, and unforgettable experiences.

DC showed up in a big way for this one. 👏
